Basic Rotary Laser Engraving for Beginners (and testing the Atomstack Maker R1 Pro)

Atomstack gave me the R1 Pro rotary engraving kit to try out. This includes a roller and rotary chuck which pretty much cover anything you could engrave with a desktop diode laser engraver. This is very much a how-to video which is more specific to Lightburn than just the Atomstack hardware. I think it would be useful to anyone getting started in laser engraving on cylinders, but if you're looking for a product review, you'll find that here at the end of the video.
Here is a link for the R1 Pro at the Atomstack store: www.atomstack.com/collections...
Here is the video I referenced in this video that contains more Lightburn tricks: • Making Laser Cut Maps ...

Yours are Digital calipers, the plastic one is a vernier calipers. A dial caliper has a needle that pivots from the center of the!!!! (Drum roll) Dial. Very good video and narrated well and our voice suits this type of content. Thanks for the tips too! I am on the hunt for a rotary that has chuck jaws as an option. 😁🛫

I don't have a lazer, so not really applicable to me now, but may get one in the future. I appreciate the detail that you go into and the tips you bring, just like the rest of your videos. - Chris

About holding a cup from below... can't you rotate the motor to the other side and raise the bottom plate as needed then...?

That was helpful. Thanks. Since airing have you printed or made any mods like you were thinking of?

Not yet, I actually haven’t really used it. As you can see from my channel, I’m more of a woodworker than a laser enthusiast. Atomstack gave me a bunch of stuff if I’d test it and make a video, this was one of those things. I use the laser all the time, but I haven’t really had need to use the rotary.

I can't get rotary chuck to hold on to heavy dollar store tapered glasses. It don't matter if I try to grip them from the small end or the wide end, they slip out of the the chuck. And, it also doesn't matter if I grip them outside or inside. Any ideas?

@catspawcustoms 2 ай бұрын

My best suggestion is 3d print some different jaws if you can and make some sort of roller rest for the unsupported end. Or maybe get lighter glasses, the chuck has its limits.

What power and speed do you set it to for stainless tumbler.

Everything’s different, your best bet is to get a spare and run a materials test.

What are you using in the pint glasses?

You talking about the coating? Just some spray primer.

You mentioned that it was good for hobbyists. What do pros use?

@catspawcustoms 4 ай бұрын

No idea, but a pro won’t be using a diode laser. This would be fine for a side hustle, but if you were making a living off it, you’d want a CO2 laser to start with and then whatever compatible rotary you could get.
