Engraving glass used to be a pain—messy paints, long prep times, and inconsistent results. That all changes today. I’m putting the ComMarker Omni 1 UV Laser to the ultimate test: a real-world wedding order for 157 shot glasses and a custom decanter.

The best part? No interface layers. No tempera paint. Just pure, crisp UV engraving that looks professional every single time.
In this video, we’ll dive into the specs of this 5W 355nm UV laser, go through the assembly (and a crucial tip on the gavo head placement), and run material tests on everything from stainless steel and slate to wood and fruit. If you've been curious about the "cold engraving" power of UV, this is the deep dive you’ve been looking for.
