Fantastic presentation, I've been doing woodworking for about 10 years. This past Father's Day my kids gave me an Aufero 2. I am a graphics designer, and my son and I own affordable tint vinyl graphics. The light burn software is much like what I use for vinyl graphics, Except the icons are different. Your videos have helped me so much I want to thank you. Looking forward to more have a blessed day

I was able to score some real nice, as much as I want, 3/4" Baltic Birch plywood scraps from a friend who makes storage inserts for off road vehicles. I'm thinking a smaller version of this would be a great idea for a plaque on our grandchildren's room. Something like Eli's Room with his favorite stuff like cars, planes, etc. So many ideas I guess I just need to select one and START!

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 жыл бұрын

This was a project for a friend. They provided me with some bamboo flooring for the project that matched the flooring in their new cabin. I didn't actually get into the wood shop to cut out and frame the sign itself until about a week after recording the video because I was waiting on their approval of the actual graphics. So by the time I got the approval, cut the sign in the woodshop, inlaid it into an oak frame and burned it, it was about two weeks later. I was a little leery about using the bamboo, but it came out wonderful with the oak edges! I wound up gifting it to them as a cabin-warming present.

I super enjoy your videos, and also appreciate you not using intros and jazzy music. For the first time users like myself, do you have a video that does a simple street sign from beginning to end? From launching Lightburn, verifying it and the laser are connected, the layout of the sign, previewing the project, where to align the substrate to be burned under the laser, setting the laser height, examples of laser speed and intensity, and then burning the project? The entire process. Also, should my laser be sitting on my workbench or sitting on a spoil board, or attached to a spoil board? Thanks, really enjoy your work and your calm narration. David

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Жыл бұрын

That's a pretty specific request David! I don't have one particular video on it, but all these things and a lot more are covered in many videos. The laser should be attached to a spoil board with a grid burned into it, and you should work in absolute coordinates IMO.

When I was getting my degree I went through a series of books that taught different areas. Like Access, Excel, Javascript, Html, etc. Each book put the chapters in story form. Like your doing now. It wrote a story about learning each segment of the chapter and it concentrated on certain parts and as the chapters expanded the story got bigger and bigger with more complicated stuff. Thats what this video is like. It has stuck with me for many years and I think all instructions should be like that. Even the Lightburn instructions story time instructions because they actually don't make sense to me. It could be easier to tie things together if it was written differently. In fact, I think it will even shorten the amount of instruction. Instructions should be about teaching your client not giving them a Webster dictionary and tell them to learn English.

Thank you for this video! I was referred here because my Ortur Pro 2 takes FOREVER to burn. I noticed that the preview time said that this would take 4 hours, but in the comments section you noted that it only took 2. I'm assuming your computer is hooked up the whole time and you have to sit next to it while it's running? That's what I find that I have to do because my computer will go into idle and the laser will shut off. That's a different topic, but the main info I'm looking for is a realistic time to burn a design that is much less involved than yours. Mine said 14 hours just to fill a passage of text at 3500 mm/sec and 80% power on 3mm birch.

If you're using Windows, Click on Start, search for Power Options. Click on Change plan settings on the current active power plan. Select Change advanced power settings. Expand the USB settings option, then click on USB selective suspend setting. Change the setting to Disabled. Speeding up the time is a matter of getting optimal settings by doing test burns. I guess I'll have to put that video on my long to-do list!

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Good question T! ✔ It all depends on your market. This sign was for a friend, so even though it was commissioned at $50, it wound up being a housewarming gift. My formula is, time + materials + profit x 2. So for this sign, my time is about 15 min, materials is about $3, and profit is always T, M & P x 2. So I had T= $15, M= $3 & P= $7, x 2 = $50.00. You have to use a formula for all of your work to make sure you profit, and although all pieces are different, my formula stays the same. I don't count time on the laser though, because I have either moved on to another project, or I'm doing something else that's not part of the job. My time is from when I open Lightburn, to when I hit start. Hope this helps! This sign actually took only 2 hours start to finish.

I have a hearing disability. So, when people make videos and they talk like they are on their tenth cup of coffee, they are useless to me. Thanks for taking it slow.
