xTool P2S + Glencairn Whiskey Glass Rotary Setup Guide
Pre-configured engineering parameters for engraving the Glencairn Whiskey Glass on the xTool P2S. Follow the pre-calculated chuck positions, tilt angle, and optical focus settings below.
Tapered Tumbler Rotary Tilt-Angle & Warp Template Generator
Preset: Glencairn Whiskey Glass (Glass)
Tilt your rotary chuck or elevate the roller tailstock by exactly -8.75°. This guarantees the cup's outer engraving surface sits 100% parallel to the laser lens gantry throughout the rotation.
Enter this diameter in LightBurn's Rotary Setup when engraving an isolated logo without full conical warping.
Extreme 8.75° reverse taper (flares out towards waist). Requires gentle clamping to prevent thin crystal shattering.

xTool P2S + Glencairn Whiskey Glass Setup FAQs
Q1: How do I mount and level the Glencairn Whiskey Glass in the xTool P2S?
For the xTool P2S: 1) Ensure any necessary riser base or honeycomb removal is completed to allow clearance for 46mm diameter drinkware. 2) Insert the Glencairn Whiskey Glass into the rotary fixture using Step 1 (Internal Narrow Rim Grip). 3) Adjust the leveling tilt angle to exactly 8.75° so the top rim and bottom base remain coplanar with the xTool P2S's laser nozzle.
Q2: What diameter and steps-per-rotation do I enter in LightBurn for this pairing?
In LightBurn Tools > Rotary Setup: Set steps-per-rotation to 12800 (or check $101=100). If engraving a small front logo, enter 56.00mm into the cylinder diameter field. If wrapping a 360° graphic, use our downloadable SVG generator for true conical warp.
Q3: Will the Glencairn Whiskey Glass clear the laser gantry or housing on the xTool P2S?
The Glencairn Whiskey Glass has a maximum outer diameter of 66mm and height of 65mm. Verify that any handle or mug curve clears the laser nozzle during a 360° dry framing run before firing the laser.
Q4: How do I focus the xTool P2S on the Glencairn Whiskey Glass?
Focus the 50.8mm lens directly onto the apex (top tangent point) of the Glencairn Whiskey Glass after leveling it by 8.75°. Utilize P2S close-range auto-focus probe or 2-inch focal block with motorized Z-bed.
