Hey Jason, You're going to have a lot of fun with your new toy. I don't know if the instructions forewarned about what to be careful of when engraving stay away from any mirrors or chromed items because it will reflect the laser beam backup at you. If you do plastic or acrylic make sure you have plenty of ventilation... It smells pretty bad and my neighbors ask me what was burning in my shop. Just to be on the safe side keep a fire extinguisher nearby, I set one of my projects on fire by accident. Stay safe and looking forward to more videos.

@NorthwestSawyer Жыл бұрын

Thank you, Mark! I just hung a fire extinguisher in my shop a few weeks ago. The laser came with safety glasses which I’ve been using. That piece of walnut had a nail in it and I was worried about it reflecting the beam. So far so good👍👍

Great to see a video review with a starter laser used on a Mac/iOS platform! So many of the lasers and CNC machines seem to be based on PC platforms. Out of curiosity, it clearly works on odd shaped surfaces like rocks and such, and you can likely put it on platforms for taller material, but can it engrave cups/mugs/tumblers etc? Does Longer have a “roller” adapter for that purpose? Looks like an excellent machine and quite possibly something I’ll follow the link to Jason! Congrats dude 😎

Boy that’s a good question. I remember going pretty slow. Maybe three passes. It’s one of those things you have to play with and adjust. There are several factors that can affect how the laser performs.

Is accurate enough to use on inlay work? Would it cut out both the positive and negative image on two different pieces of wood so that you could put them back together? Looks like you are getting the best toys. Thanks for sharing.

@NorthwestSawyer Жыл бұрын

Kevin that’s exactly what I was thinking. In the LightBurn program, you can dial in the size of your cut to the thousandth of a mm. I was thinking this would be great for bow ties but any inlay you could make adjustments for the negative and positive cuts.

@@NorthwestSawyer I wasn’t very clear in my question. I was wondering how long I would need to let freshly milled lumber dry prior to using the laser engraver or if that would even be an issue.
