First attempt at engraving on glass with a diamond drag bit. I thought for sure I would crack the glass but it turned out fairly well. I left the TinyG setup for laser work so the jerk settings probably should be adjusted more for normal operation. Can’t wait to try some other ideas on acrylic.

Super awesome! @Phil_Aldrich do you have a link to where you sourced the diamond drag bit? I really like your tslot table with rockler hold downs

This is super cool. I’ve never seen a drag bit in action. Love it.

Widget works carries the diamond drag bits - warning, not cheap.

The T slot table is great and I highly recommend it.
