Yeah so far I have just been engraving. I don’t have great ventilation so I hesitate to cut anything. I assume there will be a fair bit more smoke. Price was one of the main reasons. It seemed like a reasonable price for the features. I honestly had not done a lot of research into engravers before making the decision. My wife wanted a clock made for someone that is retiring and I figured engraving was the better option instead of carving with my CNC so I did a little looking around and FoxAlien came out as good price, available quickly and reasonable features. So far I have to say I am very happy.
Just applied the first coat of polyurethane to the clock so I would say the engraver has worked out well so far.
