Introduction to Rotary Engraving

Class | Available (Membership Required)

With our introductory class you learn to use the laser on flat stock; in this class you learn to engrave on cylindrical stock. Using our rotary attachment you'll be able to etch on glasses, bats, mugs, and more. This class certifies you to safely use this new laser accessory.


Building on your prior laser knowledge you'll learn how to: 1) set up the laser for rotary etching, 2) safely mount the rotary accessory on the machine bed, 3) align the device to the X-axis, 4) properly mount your stock, 5) safely focus the laser, 6) prepare your design in Lightburn, 7) execute the job and 8) correctly reset the laser for flat stock. The fundamentals of laser etching don't change but to correctly use our rotary and to get good results requires special training.
