This was my first test with the M3 on anything other than pen and paper. I've been trying to figure out a few things in the software before doing anything with it, This is just a tiny 1x1 inch engraving in the corner of a piece of glass for a photo frame, nothing special, but, it's a start.

Right now I'm engraving every flat object in sight

, trying to get my image placement and sizing figured out.

Tool used. : 1/4 inch carbide point .250" dia., 2.0"L 60 deg. Angle, .005" tip

Super short video.
