FOLAI Electric Engraving Engraver Pen Carve Tool for DIY Jewellery Jewelry Metal Glass - (Cordless Precision Engraver with Diamond Tip Bit

I was hesitant to buy this, but it has been a great help.Suggestions for Use:1. I first go over the work I'm doing with a corded dremel.2. Once that is complete I go back over the work with this engraver.The work I am doing is pretty precise and difficult because it is a soft plastic. This makes it temperamental when in contact with heat. E.G. a corded dremel creates bubbles in the plastic if I am not very careful. With this tool an as accessory I can go back over that work and smooth out such issues.I see some complaints saying it "scratches" rather than engraves. I wouldn't say that's exactly the case. It does take a little bit longer to do the engraving and it certainly eats batteries. However, that's not exactly unexpected. More cordless things have a terrible battery life. It still more than does the job.Use this for precision work where you intend for a softer touch and it will work great. If you're going to do a more sustained engraving at high power I'd still say pick this up as a "finishing touches" accessory. Very surprised by it's quality. Much more well made than I was expected.

This is a cool little pen-type engraver ...Light Duty for Scratching (😬) of letters or markings onto your things 👍& The Reason I describe it as “Scratching” is because even tho you hold it like a pen; it’s a bit rough to keep the power button held down (the whole tone) while your doing your ... Well ... Scratching 😜Over All ...I kinda Like the lil’ engraver & it comes in it’s own little tin case/box. 😎Oh ...The little Instruction pamphlet (that comes included) says that you need 2 AA Batteries ...BUT (also) included are 2 AAA Batteries.Don’t Worry tho ... The AAA’s Fit & Work 😉👀 Pamphlet Must be a MisPrint 👀

I like this engraving pen very much. I used it for plastic specialty dice (I have not used it on metal or wood) and much prefer it to the Dremel 290 engraving tool. This Folai Engraving Pen, costing about the price of a pizza, is a pretty good value. Mine lasted about 6 months before the little motor began to die, and just didn't have the power. I ordered a second one and it worked again like a charm. I recommend this product for plastic engraving, certainly, but with three reminders: 1) keep a supply of rechargeable batteries handy, because it will eat batteries. 2) keep extra engraving tips on hand (I ordered extras) as they too will wear down, 3) remember it will wear out eventually - the motor is strong, but tiny, and for the price of a pizza I think this is a fine little tool. Most plastics it works on just fine - so I certainly recommend the FOLAI engraving pen.

As a glass artist, bought this pen to sign my work. It is easy to hold, but does not have the quality bit and/or power of a dremmel. Used it twice, and will stay with the Dremmel or use a diamond pen. Maybe if I could get a higher quality bit it would work better? IF you just want "something" for making an item, this pen is fine. IF you are an artist signing your work, do not consider it.

This seems like a delicate tool to be engraving hard tools, but it gets the job done if you handle it carefully. On the 2 aaa batteries that it came with I engraved over 100 tools ranging from sockets to hammers to pry bars and other such tools that are difficult to write initials on with a sharpie. It took a half a day of patiently and carefully scratching the initials in with this engraver, but it got the job done. Came with a spare bit too, but found no need to use it yet. When the batteries lost their power it was obvious that it was losing rpms to work as quickly as I would have liked, so I replaced the batteries and engraved another 20 tools. The engraver is easy to use and did disappoint on even one tool I needed engraved. Though the engraving is not very deep, it is sufficient if you just make several passes for each line you wish to make to make it stand out more. Don’t press hard and take your time and the results will be satisfactory.

This engraver wouldn't even let me finish engraving my full name on my tools. I had to change batteries on it several times just so I could finish engraving my name on my tools. I work at an automotive dealership as a service tech and have several own personal tools and wanted to make sure all my tools have my name printed on it so nobody would steal it, since someone has stolen my craftsman 3/8 flexhead ratchet recently, but this engraver was not able to let me engrave my name on my tools clearly without running low on battery first. I probably get to engrave my full name on at least 3 wrenches but by the time I get to wrench # 4, the battery gets weaker and the pen starts to die on me and I have to put new batteries in to finish the last 4 letters in my last name. What a waste of money!!!

I tried it on silver rings and earrings to give them texture. They look beautiful!

Extremely easy to use. My handwriting looked no different from using a marker. Exactly what I had hoped for, for engraving my name into my stethoscope I purchased here on Amazon . It was relatively quiet, and easy to hold the pen and object still (the only part that made your hand want to move is the fact you're engraving an object).I've since "claimed" all of my tools, my bandage shears, hemostats, pen lights, etc. and it took less than 10 minutes to do all of them.I do suggest that when you engrave any plastic (or glass or metal etc.) that you consider using some eye protection as you are chipping metal and other material into bits of dust that can easily get into your eyes. I engraved everything over a moist wipe to catch dust and dispose of it, and wore a pair of lab goggles which blocked a shred of plastic from entering my eye. Hope this helps :)
