  • The Sculpfun S9 is a great laser engraver for newcomers and veterans alike. Featuring extra eye protection, a quick-focusing system, and excellent compatibility with various pieces of software, there aren't many laser engravers available in this price range that are as easy or enjoyable to use as this.

    Thanks for your video. I got one today and everything you said was true and helpful. It is a bit hard to thread the drive belts, especially since I couldn't find my tweezers. I had a satisfying test engraving in only about two hours since opening the box.

    Thank you for this clear and informative video. I have been researching extensively, trying to find the best inexpensive laser for engraving very thin lines on cow bone. The same as scrimshaw. I have been having difficulty getting specific information on this. Please tell me, do you think this S9 can engrave clean lines in bone that are about .07mm wide and .07mm deep? Or can you recommend an alternative inexpensive system to achieve it? Thank you for any advice you can give.

    Very helpful video; thank you! Have you tried cutting leather? I make jewelry, and cutting leather to paint for earrings etc is very tedious. I bought a cricut maker specifically for this reason, and it just chews up leather.

    Hi! Great review, thanks for sharing. I'm considering buying a Sculpfun S9, but I'm concerned about its long-term durability. Since your video was made a while ago, could you please share your experience regarding its performance over time? Has it held up well, and have you encountered any significant issues? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi William. You say that the S9 has issues cutting lighter coloured acrylic. This leads me to believe that it has no chance in cutting 4-5mm clear acrylic. Is that the case? Sculpfun have just released the S10, so I'm hoping that will have the capability. I just have to wait a few months until reviews start to surface. I don't have the space or funds for a c02. Thanks, G

    • @kuptis9061

      I believe that the diode lasers output a wavelength that passes through clear acrylic, so only co2 lasers can cut clear acrylics.

    Tweezers would help for the belt. Instead of starting at one end I started by going over the gear and then threading the belt though from the centre to the outward edges. That way I didn’t have any weird angles that I had to feed the belt through. Crappy explanation I know.

      Fume cupboard or in the garage with the door open. A little wind won't hurt it, as long as your material is secured.

      That will cause a fire I think. Try to look for a plotter. Like silhouette cameo or brother or another brand. If it's for hobby purposes
