I think that I have be successful. I think the issue is the size of the laser. Mine is a 100 watt CO2 laser. Although it does a fine job cutting, it does not do fine etching very well. What brand laser do you have? Any etching examples? Quote

Your tube is probably 1010mm long. 40W Laser Tube Length=1010mm, Diameter=51mm Expected Life: 2000+ hours Laser Tube, 40 Watt (48 Watts MAX, 40 Watts nominal) .. How do you test it? Quote

It is homemade that I bought from the builder on Craigslist. The etching is very coarse so I don't do much with it. Quote
