When you pulled the tables all apart; were there any adjustments, or places to put shims. Mine is high on both ends.

This is great KLR! I love this because the setup was straightforward, and I appreciated how customizable the settings are, allowing me to experiment and dial in the perfect parameters for the canvas texture. It's clear that each laser can behave differently, but with some testing and adjustments, I was able to achieve stunning results. I can’t wait to explore more projects with this machine! Highly recommend it for both beginners and seasoned users!

Try applying titanium dioxide before engraving. Lots of YT videos showing how to do it.

I have absolutely no knowledge about this, but I want to get started on it. That's why I watch this video. Am I totally wrong if I think that an aluminum plate underneath will dissipate heat and prevent burn-through? Maybe you can burn harder without burning through. Just an idea, as I said, I have no idea what I'm talking about, or what will happen with an aluminum plate underneath. Maybe that makes it all a lot worse, I don't know. Thanks for the video. 🙂

Cool. This is helpful to me. FYI - Tell your guy to stop eating flax seed. It leads to low T.

Thank you , question if you hadn't moved it how would you go over it again? If you hit start will it go over it in the exact spot? or do you have to use the print and cut feature in lightburn? If that was the software you used Thank you

have a question if I cut and engraved something but it is either not dark enough or didn't cut thru before I remove it how would I engrave and cut this again Thank you.

Hello, good job, how much does it cost? If I want that watch, how much should I pay?

Hi guys. Maybe I missed it. What was the Dot Duration on this project? Thanks. Well done.

The 60w they sent me to review had a broken screw in the laser head, 6 weeks and 2 shipments later I get to do this today...

Thank you! This is the first place I’ve found where someone has the same menu options as I do. I finally got my cr touch set up.

How do you know if the switch is bad? I bought 2 new ones (my dime after no response from Tech Support) for my 60W as well and have the machine tore apart as I type. Both of my switches light up. are in the exact same position as yours but 1) at startup, the head goes to home and starts jackhammering trying to go past the limit switches. Also, both of my switches get hit by something and lean over no matter how low I take them. If you get a Monport, prepare to be inside of it regularly.

On the wire channels you can push the cover to one side to release the other side then open the released side and remove the cover.

What a great video thank you guys so much for the inspiration

Hi I hope you got it working in the end, as it wasn't working well. My k40 ( more like k25 , its the mini one with 600mm tube ) will cut 3mm ply and 3mm mdf at 20mms at 13mA in 2 passes, if I slow down to 12mms it cuts in 1 pass.

why didn't you do some test cuts and engraves on the parts you are going to cut off first.

great video i just ordered the cr touch for my 3 pro tho think im going to have to do some changes to mine as i have the direct drive setup on mine

NO NOT BUY A MONPORT LASER. They have NO support. There are 3 numbers listed on there Website as post sells support. NEITHER one number answers. Ever. You have to summit cases via an email link and WAIT. When, if, they contact you then it's a 24 email and wait. For days. If you have an urgent production issue like we did, you are screwed. We spent $1,000 on a CO2 laser and it's DEAD after a week when a runaway Z movement sent it into the honeycomb crunching the laser head. We are STILL waiting on Tech Support help over a week later.

Wound love to test one

Lookx fun

Good quality guidance video

They let me me know

ok I'm new to 60w and help!!

I loved your video. Based on the size, do you think it will fit thru a standard door? I don't have a garage but I have a spare bedroom I use for my lasers. I'm looking to upgrade to a CO2.

❤ sweet ! Amazing. Say what is your laser watt 5 10 or ? 😀 great job 👏 also I need to change my power settings now thanks for that .

you deliver the board to India

Can this cutter cut 3 mm thick acrylic sheets?

Nice job! Looks like a lot of charring on the cuts...did you have air assist on? Comments?

Just like Monport, send you something without directions. That's why I stopped dealing with them!

I think I would use your advice/experience and will try to get bigger machine (well looking for something up to 2028) ;D for now I am choosing first laser but those k40 seems very limited and probably bigger worth the investment. Thanks for sharing.

Nice video guys. I started having constant stoppages every 3 minutes. So, followed your tips (except for the sock) and took the makita router out - opened it up and gave it a deep dust clean with a small air compressor, added 2 fat ferrite chokes to the makita power cord near the router itself. moved the hanging router power cord a little further away from the main drag chain and also flipped the router 180 degrees so the power cord now points away from the controller box & short drag chain. So far so good - just finished a 20min carve with no disconnect. I also find that making sure your computer doesn't sit idle for more than 10mins - essentially keeping the computer awake also helps. The way forward is to give the router a regular deep dust cleaning - monthly.

Is there a link to get this board in the uk ?

7 months later. How's your income from your co2 diode?

So I installed this board today exactly how you have. Lightburn begins to communicate... says Homing then nothing and steppers are hot AF. I fired up LASERGRBL and it works and is controllable (ignoring reverse Y axis)... But for the life of me cannot get lightburn to even add it or have it show up at all :(

Hey guys ,thank you for video it helpded me alot . I Just got the same machine , just wondering what is the tube of sealant for? Thank you -Sheila

thank yooooooooooooooooou

Is this just black spray paint over the white canvas? Does this smell bad when lasering? My engraver is in the basement.

Very nice and understandable video.

I've tested the mustard on the Xtool d1 diode laser, it did work pretty well but I had to run it at a pretty slow speed.

You always forget to show how to resolve the confusion of 7 different but identically named printers, mainboards, chip sets etc. in your "simple" explanations. These videos don't help at all.

So has that metal grate worked out ok? I'm thinking of doing that.

Such a straightforward and concise video. Thank you!

I have not used my k40 for a while now. I have other lasers, but this looks like a fun upgrade. I used to use the k40 whisperer. I wanted to try the meerk40t software but my nano board stopped working.

Same here, started with a 10watt Diode moved to the Monport K40 now I have 2 50 watt co2's

My upgrade path matched yours only my K-40 came lightburn compatible. I really liked my k-40 but it was just to small. My diode laser was a total bust. The support was helpful but I just couldn't get it to work correctly. The Monport K-40 came with chiller that didn't increase the cost much. The 16x24 60w is a 100% win. It came with auto focus and I didn't need to adjust anything. I checked the Laser alignment and it was spot on. I love that machine very much.

I tried 100mm/s with 100% and you get a qiet deep engraving. Sure it takes a bit of time but works!

Hey great video but are you able to help me I messed up my machine settings and the company won’t tell me what they are my laser is going crazy and my axis is flipped and it keeps geinding I just need someone with the machine to lmk what the settings are I would appreciate it and I would donate to channel if helped

Great😊

Ooooh Weller! Great choice and in a proper Glencairn glass too. lol Lasers and whisky. I think we just became best friends 😋 Quick question about the laser. I see you just got yours but do you think you can fit a rotary in there. Spec's say 9.8". The 4 wheel rotary might work with a Glencairn but a 20oz tumbler? I want to buy that size laser but i'm worried about the Z height. Just found your channel. Sub'd! Thanks.
