Other Tips

  1. Placement direction of cylindrical objects affects the final result. If the object has directionality, such as a cup, make sure the cup’s opening is positioned to the right.
  2. Adjusting the rotation angle of the design allows the engraving pattern on the cylindrical object to be oriented either horizontally or vertically.
  3. If the surface of the cylindrical object is too smooth, use the included black silicone bands during engraving.
