Pro-Tip: To achieve the best results when engraving aluminum or plastics, use a constant feed rate and ensure your workpiece is securely clamped to minimize vibration. For fine lettering in hardwoods, consider making two passes: a shallow "scoring" pass followed by a final depth pass to virtually eliminate grain tear-out and produce a razor-sharp finish.
