My test to carve & etch glass with the X-Carve

I saw the video in YouTube of the test with floating supports and I made mine, use a dremell bit andt worked! Sorry for the sound is strident but when you have worked with glass before you get used to listening to it.

Its a diamond tip, not a diamond drag bit.
Intended to spin hence no spring.

I see. But in the video it’s not spinning that’s why I was confused. :sweat_smile:

I had to look too LOL :wink: But afaik its a regular diamond bit, but not spinning in this case :joy:

Wow, I’ve never seen glass done on an X-Carve.

@CristhianPena. How strong are those springs? How much movement is necessary?

Zach thanks you!!! Is so glad to see your opinion!!!
