I am frequently asked what laser projects can be created and sold for profit. So, in this video, I used the Wecreat Vision laser to make 3 different projects that you can easily make and sell for large profits.

Thanks for another great video Steve. Would you possibly do a video showing how to export a LightBurn project and import it into the software provided by WeCreat? I understand it is possible to do that, but not work directly in LightBurn. Any inside scoop on whether native LB support is coming? Thanks again.

Nice assortment of starter projects to get you talking to folks! How’s the fume extractor on acrylic? I don’t think you had tested that on the previous video.

@SteveMakesEverything 5 ай бұрын

You didn't stick around to the end of the video where I covered the fume extractor in a bit more detail 😈. At any rate it seems to work pretty well on acrylic. This wasn't a huge job, but I didn't get a whiff of plastic as I was doing this.

@LarryDMitchell 5 ай бұрын

Good video and three good items. I bought a bamboo cutting board from the DollarTree and put a conversion table on it to give to my wife. She liked the idea but she didn't like the smell. I'll either have to switch to a non-bamboo board or see if there is a way to eliminate the smell. Any comments or suggestions are welcome here.

@kevinrvanputten 5 ай бұрын

I use bamboo quite often, I let the bamboo air for a long time. Most of the time, the smell will mostly dissappear in a few days to max about a week. I do this before I put finish on them of course.

@SteveMakesEverything 5 ай бұрын

Per Kevin’s comment air them out. The ones I use don’t seem to have any smell though, so maybe it’s just the brand. Note that there is no special requirement to use bamboo. Use whatever wooden boards you can find that will ensure you make money.

What is the price point you use for the cutting boards and dog tags

@SteveMakesEverything 5 ай бұрын

Are you asking about the selling price or the material price? The selling price would vary wildly depending of you country, currency and general market conditions

@daleplant5275 4 ай бұрын

I am really considering the WeCreat. I have never seen the digital test grid allowing you to visually choose settings. How accurate is it to a test grid?

@SteveMakesEverything 4 ай бұрын

I find the built-in test grids are bang on for the materials they list. You can of course do your own material tests if you need to, but the built-ins are a real timesaver

@SteveMakesEverything 4 ай бұрын

I just picked this setting from the MakeIt material list I believe. Regardless you can probably go with something like 90% power and 400mm/min. That would certainly trigger some engraving.

@SteveMakesEverything 5 ай бұрын

Absolutely. I used my own designs for all of the projects here. You can drag an image or SVG file from your computer into Wecreat MakeIt and it should render. You will have to resize it and position it manually through.
