WEN 21C Variable Speed Electric Engraver Kit with Stencils,Blue

Wen delivers again! If your looking to engrave pretty much any material and not break the bank doing so I highly recommend this product. I read some reviews where people were having trouble getting the carbide tip to stay in the tool, it may be because they didn’t realize the tool comes with the set screw in already but they also provide a replacement screw. It is a little loud but it’s also a power tool so noise is expected. I’ve only used it to engrave about 10 things so far so I can’t speak on the durability but it seems well made. I’d definitely recommend this engraver

I like that it is the great grand son of my original WEN engraver which gave up the ghost after 40 years. It has only improved since. The machine is solid in the hand and there is a noticeable difference in the adjustment between numbers and the scale is imprinted (engraved) on the body for repeatability. The included Allen screw is a backup for the one that is tight in place from the factory. You need to back that one out to allow the tip to sink into it's hole. It would be nice if the body of the tool was a little longer before it came to the motor portion to fit my hand a little better but most people have smaller hands than I do. That would help to control the bulk of the heavy motor and thick extension cord. However, it is a solid machine and I'm being picky. The tip is sharp and gives a fine line when on the lowest setting. For an inexpensive vibrating tool (not rotary), You will do well to pick up one of these. It is worth more than the $12 price. I'm giving it 5 stars.

I was unable to secure the bit into the collet. Inserting the bit into the collet, the end of the bit stops before reaching the set screw hole. Installing the set screw, it turns less than two complete times before bottoming out on something and the bit just falls out of the collet. BUT here is the trick, thanks to the great customer service representative whom I reached by phone: there is a set screw already screwed all the way into the collet! Not obvious, but all I had to do was remove the pre-installed set screw, place the bit into the collet and tighten the screw. The set screw provided in the little plastic bag with the bit and Allen key is a SPARE screw!

Once again, WEN has delivered a fantastic product. The WEN Engraver is exactly what I was hoping for. It’s easy to handle, lightweight, and comfortable to use, even for longer projects. The engraving process is smooth and precise, making it great for personalizing tools, gifts, or anything else you want to mark. It feels sturdy and well-built, just like the other WEN products I’ve used. If you’re looking for a reliable, affordable engraver that’s simple to use, I’d definitely recommend this one. Another win for WEN!

Ok. This little engraving pen is noisy but every engraving pen I've ever owned was noisy. It's the nature of the thing. I haven't tried to engrave metal yet only the plastic housings on my meters and such. It does quiet well. A little experimentation with the dial setting helps as the higher settings are a bit aggressive for plastic. It comes with a setscrew already in the tip receptacle. I had to use a flashlight to see it. Look closely. An extra setscrew is supplied. I taped it to the little owner's manual along with the Allen wrench and put it all, including the pen, back in the box for safe keeping when I was done. A very good value for occasionally puting my initials on tools that have a nasty habit of walking away in a work environment. Not fancy but doesn't cost like fancy either. 750 stars. Ps. I will update this review when I've had a chance to engrave some metal tools, i.e wrenches and stuff.

At this price, it useable, but barely, as I find the tool awkward to hold

Works awesome. Bought it to engrave all my tools.

The price is wonderful. Worked just fine at first. But the whole tip gets loose. Not the needle, but the whole tip. I cannot see anyway to service the tip. So now I own 2 of these engravers and I need to buy a new one again. I still have one from 50-years ago that needs a new tip (if they make a tip for it) Anywho, the price is great. I'm just picky about how my engraving turns out.

Esta bien, cumple su función

I've never used an engraver before. Looking at the options on amazon, my only purpose was to engrave my name onto my tools. I didn't really know what to expect but it worked great. A bit loud but it took me like 5 minutes to engrave my name 15 times. I think it's pretty great, considering the price of this tool compared to the others. I probably wouldn't buy this if you engrave A LOT but it served its purpose for me and I'm happy with it. Think I'll pass it onto my buddies so they can do it too since I'm done with it.

Very poor response. Machine not start when we try to use. Damage product received. never buy it . It is only show piece.
