Interested

[Michelle_Tuggle]

Interested in getting an iengrave. Just have seen the end products and think I may want to do some of that. This is all I know about it. Can you give some info?

[Rick_Goodman]

I have only had mine about a month and knew nothing other than what I had seen could be made. I’m still learning. Youtube has been a great help. Joinsome Facebook groups and read through them daily to see what others are asking and then check the replies. There is some good information here also. Plenty of places and people to help you learn. Good Luck and have fun with it.

I had never owned a laser engraver before I got mine. I have had a ton of fun with it! Both engraving and cutting projects. I have done some playing around with it myself to find what I like the best for engraving and cutting wood. I have also engraved on glass that you need to coat with black acrylic paint first. I have also engraved on slate.

Hi there, a few members have shared iEngrave unboxings and real projects in the community, which are great for seeing how it actually works beyond the finished results:

Hands-on Review with the iEngrave - Part 1

[1] Hello crafties, this is Kimberly with SkyiCreations I am a mommy of four, a wife to my high school sweetheart, a Zumba instructor and a full-time crafting small business owner. I’ve always enjoyed crafting, and the glue gun was my best friend growing up. SkyiCreations was created in 2017 as a small business to make large paper flowers. Who knew that was only the beginning and I now DIY everything from paper flowers, wooden signs, cake toppers, notebooks, keychains and all sorts of party f…

Hands-on Review with the iEngrave - Part 2

[9] Hello crafties, this is Kimberly with SkyiCreations Now that we have the iEngrave™ setup and ready, let’s put it into action. I have used the LOKLiK App on my phone to connect the software and machine to the laser. This process was swift which allowed me to start on the projects quickly. Ease of Use Time is precious, especially as a small business owner and mommy. Thankfully the iEngrave™ allowed for me to setup and begin projects with ease. Software setup: I opted to use the LOKLi…

Hands-On Review with the iEngrave Cover Machine | Part 2. Testing & Review | UPDATED

[IMG_9608] Hello Beautiful People and Fellow Crafters! Now, we are heading to Part 2 which is Engraving & Cutting, Safety & Operation Feel, and my Overall thoughts. The iEngrave is a10W diode laser with 0.02mm precision and speeds up to 30,000mm/min. It cuts and engraves over 300 materials — wood, leather, slate, coated metals, acrylic (non-transparent), and more. So, let’s go ahead and let’s do some tests run, fired up this machine and put this at work! (NOTE: I utilized the mobile LOKLiK Id…

Cutting and engraving tests on different materials, Part Two

[Grupo de 28 objehgfhfgtos] Hello friends of this beautiful community here I share with you my second part of cuts and engravings using different materials and textures to give you an idea of what the powerful iEngrave from Loklik can do. Keep in mind that these materials are only a reference to check the behavior of the machine on them and that it is not a definitive guide because the engraving and cutting will depend on the thickness, the material and other aspects that we have to take into…

You can also take a look at the Help Hub. There’s member help, plus some clear info on what iEngrave can make and the kinds of projects people usually start with. It’s a nice way to get a feel for it before deciding.

Hello @Michelle_Tuggle , we are happy to help if you have any specific questions. I have the iEngrave and have also used other diode lasers. I am pleased with the results and projects I have gotten with the iEngrave.

I am way off of needing inspiration. I’m more at the, Is the machine I’m looking at going to be good for a pre beginner." lol. I may need a list of terms first.

[Samantha_Bryant]

Well, we’ve had many “pre-beginners” who decided to take the plunge, and are happy they did. I don’t have the machine, myself, but it’s one that I would definitely like to have, one day. Olivia posted some good review posts that would probably help you decide. I think the biggest issue, I’ve seen for beginners, is getting it connected. However, we have users that are certainly willing to help get you set up, so that you can dive right on in and start creating.

I don’t know if there is a list of terms, per se, but @rinsky has some iEngrave videos on her YouTube channel you might want to take a look at that may give you some kind of insight as far as those terms go.

Erin Theige

Maybe, she can answer more of your questions. I hope this helps. Feel free to inquire about anything you wish. We’re here to help.

Hi @Michelle_Tuggle! As several members have already mentioned, the iEngrave is an exceptional laser machine. I continue to be impressed by its capabilities and the precision it delivers. I absolutely love mine—especially for engraving and cutting wood and various acrylic blanks. It has quickly become one of my favorite tools in my crafting workflow
Please check this thread: Hello! - #4 by rinsky

Here are my completed projects for you to explore! You can view them in the LOKLiK App or on our online community page in the Inspiration section. Two pieces I’m especially proud of are Crafting Is My RESET Button and the Laser cut Wooden Gift Bag with a green initial letter “R” keychain which is an acrylic that I cut with the iEngrave. I even shared some Home Decor and Birthday Card projects using cardstocks with my iEngrave. I hope these projects—along with the incredible work shared by our community members—motivate you to get your own machine and start creating something truly inspiring.

@Samantha_Bryant, thank you for linking my Youtube Channel!
