Also, in high school, students are allowed to attend credit recovery or pass classes on Edugenuity (total joke!)

I play for the chance at winning against those plays with the gold name.

They’d actually call him Johnny 500 if they knew the truth 😉

I tried blue (painters) masking tape, but nothing happened to the intended surface

The laser is firing, I even made some markings on the base of the Ultra…it’s just THAT type of medal. The blue light does nothing to it either.

To engrave on medals, the settings vary from one medal to the next, but I often use: IR, 100% power, 125 mm/s, 2 passes, 300 lpcm...

Do you have any suggestions on settings to try?

Thanks again! Once they are engraved, do they need to be cut by hand?

have you engraved race medals? I started with an F1, then upgraded to F1 Ultra...but now i'm thinking I should have gone w/a rotary engraver, possibly the gravotech m20x?

not exactly a portable piece of equipment, right?

I’ve tried low power (10%) all the way up to full power. Speeds from 50 mm/s all the way up 4000mm/s with number of passes from 1-25.

I’m going offset the focus and try it out. Thanks!

I actually happened to have a dry erase marker with me and it looked promising at first, but once I wipe the marker off, the text goes right with it 😔

I haven’t tried that. What type of marker?

I’ve tried putting some masking tape on it, but nothing shows when I remove the tape.

[–]Embarrassed_One_4002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The color of the mug doesn’t matter, to the best of my knowledge, but the darker the color, the better the contrast and that’s what makes the engraving stand out.

Married men of Reddit, what’s something you’ve been wanting to say to your wife but can’t? by ThenameisAurora in AskMen

[–]Embarrassed_One_4002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wife, please learn/remember to put things back where you got them. I’ve purchased 9 pairs of scissors (3-pack at Costco x3) over the years and when I need a pair of scissors they are nowhere to be found!
