Information

      Messing around with my D1 PRO 20W, found the secret to a good engraving on black acrylic from xTool

Step1

Just messing around.
DON"T FORGET to turn ON air assist to engrave, OFF to cut!  (you can turn air assist on to cut, but it may leave a white-ish edge)
ON to engrave, so the melted acrylic cools off almost instantly, which leaves this very light colored engraving.  If you don't turn on air assist it will be a darker engraving.
