Thank you have dabbled a little bit with this method. Tried sandblasting, but I like this method. You have shown you don’t need anything fancy. You’ve have work for you, very simple setup. Thank you.
I'm a beginner engraver and I find your videos very interesting and informative, thank you for taking the time to explain and making everything easy to follow along with
started using a dremel like tool last year to etch glass , having a bit of fun exploring with it, recently got a maker x multi-tool, haven't test ran it yet but expect it to be fun, looking forward to your tips. if it's of benefit to yourself or others, here's a tip. i have pets & don't bar them away from me so in orders to keep my 2 old cats safe (& me too), i made a clear plastic bubble to work in. using old metal coat hangers i made a cube shape, covered in plastic. cut a hole in the plastic, duct taped a piece of glass from old picture frame in. light filters through great . i can see what i'm doing & it contains the particals as i etch
That's a really interesting idea. My dogs don't like the noise of the tool and spend most of the time snoozing in the house (or garden if it is warm). I know cats can be very inquisitive though so the extra protection sounds like a good idea.
Thank you for creating a very comprehensive and easy to understand guide on how to engrave glass. I am feeling much more confident in trying this beautiful craft.
I just loved this first video of yours! I work as hand engraver in Brazil, mainly in live events. Was doing some research on materials today, found this series, decided to take a look and I'm completely delighted by the way you talk about everything and how creative you are to build your space and work conditions! I use a Dremel-4000 as well, love it and it's possibilities and I'm sure that will be very interesting information on the next videos, so thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience!
I am so glad that you like the videos. There will be more new ones in the near future. I have just about got my workbench set up again, having moved to a new house. Still in the back of the garage though. Some things never change.
@@whatktmadenext so far I've watched all 12 of them (I think it's all) - very interesting series, valuable information, incredible insights! Hope that your new home is pleasant and you feel very happy there!
Hi from Aotearoa (New Zealand), I'm so happy I found another craft to learn 🥰 Thank you very much for sharing your beautiful craft work, & also for explaining everything clearly. I look forward to seeing more of your lovely work & very happy to be a new subscriber 🥰
Thank you! Some very thoughtful points you made to help with decision making for beginners. I am so appreciative of this information and you sharing your knowledge! ❤
Fantastic I've just started and am realy enjoying learning you dremial is exactly the same as mine I've ordered the tools to get going with it there where old ones but that where all mostly worn out do all new burrs polishers saws grinders sanding word disk's and lots more items coming your the first person that's made real sence and not just pratteld on makeing not much sence thx for your time in showing how it's realy works and is fine just saved your others to watch and learn much appreciated from Australia 👌👌👌👌🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
For years I used a Dremel 3000 with a flexishaft. I found it good and reliable although you do have to make sure you check and change the brushes every so often. I moved to a Dremel pendant motor a year or two ago, the Fortiflex. It has quite a bit more power but the hand piece is a little more awkward.
I am doing engraving a couple of years now, but I have a hard time to find the right equipment. I have stil not found any kind of rubber and white arcansas stone. I am in Germany, do you have by any chances an idear where to look for professional tools.
Hi. I don't have any recommendations I can give you, except to search on-line for "jewellery making tools and equipment ". I know Eternal Tools ships to outside the UK but I hear they can be expensive. I plan to do a video soon showing the difference between cheap and expensive burrs. As part of that I will ask people to comment about where they buy equipment, so perhaps I can build up a list for people to refer to. I am going to be in Germany next week, so I will do a bit of searching if I get a chance.
hola !!!!! gracias por los videos y los conocimientos que compartis , comence a grabar vidrio en el 2015 mirando videos !!! mi dificultad es el idioma , ya que no hablo ingles y las traducciones hay veces que no son muy precisas , pero observando , observaando y practicando las cosas van mejorando. Paso horas y mas horag grabando , me hace muy feliz . Me alegra aprender de tus videos tecnicas de lenguaje visual como volumen , valores , etc , etc . Saludos desde Argentina !!!!!!
And hello from Scotland. I am glad that the videos are helpful. I wish I was able to record in other languages but I do not have that skill, but if you ever have a question, then I will do my best to answer.
Yes, air tools have a very impressive spin speed. Some burrs would struggle to cope with that, particularly some polishing rubbers. I understand they can be very effective though.
@@whatktmadenext I bought the entire system and I love it it’s smooth no tugging or pulling it’s like righting with a good ball point pen on any surface
I don't know if others are having trouble hearing you, but I even have all things on high. I even have a set of hearing aids I'm using and still have trouble hearing you. Could others reply or could you turn your speaker up a bit?
Hello. Yes, I am aware that the sound quality is variable, to say the least and I am sorry if that is causing a problem. You will have realised that I don't make any money from these videos, and I don't expect I ever will. I don't have any specialised equipment and everything is just filmed on my phone, That said, I will try to improve the sound quality and I hope you will bear with me for the moment.
You can use a multi chuck (Dremel part no. 4486 I think) or get a set of collets (which is part no. 4485). I use the multi chuck because it means I can swop easily between different shank sizes, including the 1.8mm shank dental burrs.
Just come across your channel and amazing in depth video.. can I ask what brand of rotary tool u are using is is the chuck bought separately.. thank you 🙂
Hello, and thank you for your kind comment. Personally I use a Dremel 3000 with a flexi-shaft attachment. The chuck is one I bought seperately; a Dremel multi-chuck. The fact that I use the Dremel shouldn't be taken as a recommendation for that tool (although I have to say I find it works very well for me). As have said in a couple of videos, choice of tool really depends on how hard you are going to work it and what your budget is. The multi-chuck is a massive help for me. It was not expensive and it allows me to use burrs with anything between 1.5mm and 3.2mm shanks.
If you are going to be doing a lot of heavy duty engraving, you might want to look at a pendant motor. Foredom, Proxxon and Dremel all have machines that are worth a look. Pay attention to the handpieces that are available for each machine to make sure they will work with your burrs. Obviously those are quite a bit more expensive than the basic Dremel that I use.
Seeing how a lot of us is hard of hearing, I wish the people that make videos would bye clip own mikes. I would have liked to have heard all you were saying thank you, and have a nice day.
Hi Raleigh. I'm sorry you were having trouble hearing what I was saying. I did buy a clip mike recently and I had hoped that would improve the sound quality. Plainly not. I will keep trying to improve the sound and, once again, sorry that you were struggling to hear.
Although, of course, that video was made before I got the mike. I will have to see if I can go back and change the sound levels on earlier videos. Thank you for highlighting the problem.
Hello. I have tried to avoid mentioning specific brand names of tools, because there are so many and all have their good points and bad points. I can say that I personally use a Dremel 3000 with a Flex Shaft attachment. Since I am largely a hobbyist, that works very well for me. Lots of other manufacturers make rotary tools that would work just as well, or possibly better if you were planning to do a lot of engraving, Foredom for example, and there other manufacturers like Goxawee to consider. I mentioned Micro-motor machines. Again there are a huge range of these available. Some of the cheaper ones, which are often aimed at the nail care industry, may be less suitable for engraving glass because they can lack power, but others are used very successfully. Many people use micro-motors produced by companies like Marathon to produce some beautiful work. Micro-motors produced for the dental industry can be very effective and tend to be very robust. Pendant motors tend to be at the more powerful end of the range. Again there are a large number of manufacturers. Proxxon and Foredom are two recognised manufacturers but others such as the Dremel Fortiflex or the machines made by Milbro are available. It can be very hard to decide what machine to get because the right choice for you depends very much on individual factors such as the amount of space you have, how much engraving you planning on doing and what your budget is. If it helps there are a number of comparison sites which provide very good information on the pros and cons of the different tools. I don't know if this has helped you at all, but I hope you find what you are looking for and enjoy your engraving.

Glad you liked it
This is Draco’s mama Candi with the pens do you need any of those equipment in order to etch on glass? I just got my pen .
For engraving all you need a a rotary tool, and some burrs. Part 2 of this series of videos is about which burrs you need.
The 400xs spins at 400,000rpm system With its own air compressor
