In this video, we're going to look at engraving metal with a co2 laser. Although you can't technically engrave metal with a CO2 laser, you can use your CO2 laser to etch metal otherwise known as "marking" the metal.

Having a compound lens installed on your CO2 laser cutter should let you get darker and finer laser engraving on your laser engraving machine. The drawback is that they do not let you cut anywhere as deep as the stock CO2 laser lens that came with your laser cutter. My CO2 laser engraver is similar to the popular k40 laser cutter and other Chinese laser engravers, so the install process should be similar for other machines, like an 80w laser cutter....
