    LaserCut 5.3 settings for glass

    I've come across some glass samples from an art teacher at the high school here and I was wondering if anyone could provide me with the settings in LaserCut 5.3 for a 60 Watt FSE laser to etch glass. They are flat pieces of glass with beveled edges. Thanks

    In my experience, glass is not too particular with power settings. Just start around 10-20W and increase it until you get the look you want. Obviously speed will be a factor as well as what exactly you are engraving.

    On my little 40w, I just run 100% power, 100% raster speed. No worries. Glass is super forgiving.
