We got our first order for a store! I delivered twenty-five christmas ornaments to a local farm to table store last week. And they are talking to me about getting Cutting Boards (that i will make) and a few other things after the first of the year. I tried to get their hat business and i was almost there, but the person they've been using came through with the order. They know we can do it though, so if there is a problem in the future maybe we can be the solution. Also, we did a craft show the day after black Friday and was approached by a lady that is going to be organizing a bridal show in February or March. She wants us to be a part of that. That's why i like craft shows. The little one here one there sales are nice but we want the bigger orders as well. Still not moved in to our new space but getting close. Hopefully by the end of the year. Some great tips in this video Matt. Thanks for sharing them with us little guys.

Nice video. I got a shop vac early on as well but it was mainly for vacuuming small bits of acrylic that can't be swept up. Haven't worked with wood much but the vac-sander combo is pretty smart.

Great video as always! We've been pre painting our birch boards and masking them. The issue we keep running into randomly is brown staining under the masking. I'm not sure if its sap or smoke getting under the masking. But this has caused a lot of delays and us redoing projects completely or re touching up paint.

@laserengravingwithmatt 6 ай бұрын

That is from smoke. Are you using a credit card to put the tape down? If all the bubbles are out it shouldn’t do that. Or you need different tape. The one I use doesn’t do that.

@spinstylez 6 ай бұрын

@laserengravingwithmatt7833 yeah we use a squeegee to get it smooth and all the bubbles out. We use TapeManBlue paper transfer tape.

Thank you for the tips! I'm new to laser and trying to understand the first few tips. Do you use the vacuum to quickly collect all the little pieces and then empty out the vacuum to grab the little pieces? Also, not sure if I understand the tip about sanding instead of using 3M tape. I thought 3M tape was to help glue small pieces?

@laserengravingwithmatt 6 ай бұрын

The vacuum is for cleaning up the little pieces you don’t want so you don’t have to pick them up by hand and the 3M tape is so you don’t have burn marks on your products so instead of using the tape, you can sand them while they’re still in the skeletons.

Great advice, as always, Matt. Hey, I have the garage finally finished. All electrical work has been completed & the thunder is ready to fire this Friday. One problem i have come across is that my laser tube has what can only be described as micro air bubbles running through it. I managed to get rid of the 5mm to 10mm ones by pinching the water tubes. I am running an S&A 5000 with distilled water mixed with antifreeze. Any advice on the micro bubbles causing me issues would be greatly appreciated

@laserengravingwithmatt 6 ай бұрын

That’s exciting. Just let it run. They will work themselves out

@laserengravingwithmatt7833 Thanks for the quick reply, Matt. I'll let it run longer tomorrow before firing the laser. Thanks again

Do you think using a dust collector as a fan is over kill for a diode. I plan to get me if i can get some sales going.

Sorry, I do not hand that out because last time I did a bunch of people went and looked at it and if you don’t buy anything you get pushed to the bottom because of the algorithm.

HI Matt, hope you don't mind a question... I got an order for a dozen stemless wineglasses, they will be my first. With a round logo, do you distort the graphic for that extreme taper?

@laserengravingwithmatt 6 ай бұрын

Yes. It’s normally around 1/4” wider. Make sure to test it with blue tape first
