Anything pet related is a great idea. It's been shown that even during a recession, consumers cut back more on purchases for themselves than for their pets. It just goes to show the love. They are family. As I sit here now right in front of me is an engraved frame with a picture of my dog who had passed, I am also wearing an engraved necklace charm in honor of his death. I'm telling you. I work at a small locally owned pet shop. People spend $$$ on things for and about their pets! I wish I could get started! I just keep getting one roadblock after another with my health which is financially preventing me purchasing an engraver. In mean time I will practice carving with help from your videos! Thank You! I will do this!!!
I am happy you are getting a lot from the videos. That is also very valuable insight! I hope you get better soon! Keep hanging in there my friend. I appreciate your support!
I liked this video and appreciate the detail to customer service and finding your market. Working hard on that and focusing great quality and core products customers enjoy and come back for more.
Great advice, another point would be is to show confidence in your ability and product and listen to the customer and go out of your way to make their vision a reality. Repeat customers and word of mouth is the best salesman you have.
Wow Very interesting thank you so much. I just now get into the laser world. My machine will be here Wednesday so I didn’t have no idea how to start this thing or what to engrave but you gave me a lot of great ideas. Thank you so much.
The last line is honestly kind of terrifying. What you've said is, essentially, that the average person buys what FEELS good, rather than what IS good. Explains a lot about the current state of the economy.
Just bought my first lazer. i feel it a bit big for my first, but I got inspired off you to do so love to get a few more tip off you in the future I'm in the UK Newcastle upon Tyne, check how far I am and you have hooked
Awesome Bro!!! This is the first video of yours that showed up in my feed. Fortunately. Thank you for taking the time to share the various ideas. I was hit with a jolt🫨⚡ of inspiration with your marketing tip. I was like yeah I can do something like that🤑!!!
Good Video but the 1,00,00 dóllar question. What laser are you using? Does one laser work for the 4 ideas you gave on wood, metal, glass, leather? You linked the F1 but you have a different engraver on your desk.
Thank you for the kind words! At the end of the video, I mentioned you need an F1 or Fiber for anything metal and posted a link on my end screen to a video that will help you find one to fit any budget.
I'm having trouble with Dimond dremel heads. Tungsten carbine is ridiculously expensive. This Dimond dremel heads "chew" the wood so I have to take extra steps. Man idk if I'm ready for Lazer looks expensive. I'm looking for the smooth carbine wood carving. I'm not selling just a project as gifts for now. [Edit] I went on Amazon and it's a ton cheaper then hardware store. Also I have all the accessories, tank compressor, release value, regulator, needed for the super rpm daddy. So I'm a beginner but I'm over halfway there for ur favorite rotary. I'll let I know when I get it
can you make a video on how to make the tumbler? I bought that roller that you showed in your video but I have no idea how to use it or even where to plug it in at.
Which page should should I buy as a new user? I know that I want to do jewelry, tumblers, pet or key tags, most likely the wallets, possibly the cutting boards…..ok EVERYTHING you posted:) I do not have a limited pockets or funds. Therefore, this is why I’m asking which engraver is the best overall but on a budget that can do these tasks properly???!!! **PLEASE HELP:)
Hey there, I cannot tell you which to buy, but I do have a video that will help you find which one would be best. "How to choose the best laser engraver"
Damn, I love the video and I LOVE making stuff. My problem is I have the personality of a worn-out rubber boot... but not quite as handsome. Good luck to all!
Hi, I am a new subscriber, and I love the video. I can't seem to find the Wallet on Alibaba's site. The link takes me to a Special Offer. Can you please share a new link?
Hi how are you doing? hey i reeally like your video, very helpful for beguniners like me. I have a question please. How much do you charge for a tumbler skine 20oz, 30oz, 40oz and 32 water bottom full wrap laser engraved? I am lost on this. How can I charge for the engraving without being more spensve than other people?
Hey, I really liked your video. I am interested, what do you think about xTool D1 Pro 20W? Does it engrave well on wood, steel etc.? Thank you for your feedback!
Hey There! The 20W is amazing and will work on just about anything. Depending on the steel, it can mark with discoloration. The 20W is probably my favorite open diode laser.
i want to make my own jewelry..what lazer cutter will cut a sheet of silver or gold into flat pieces like a cross or a 100 other flat shapes shapes.. any suggestions..thanks..doc johnny ..italy
Hi Matt. Sorry i've been away for so long. Moving countries and get started from 0 hasn't been easy. Finally soon will start using my laser engraving machine, but i got a question for you, it only comes with one pair of protective glasses, and i would like to get another as we and my partner will be working with it, the people at the store where we bought it, Crreality distributoirs here in Colombia, told us to buy any that has UV protection which can be cheap, what do you think of this and what do you recommend?? Once again much appreciate the advice and help. Take care!! Thank you!!!
If you buy the boards from big box stores they have to be food safe if you make the boards yourself then you have to learn what can be used and how to seal the wood
@@dakutatsu6450 I mean when you engraved. You've now introduced hollows where food can get in and is difficult to remove - encouraging bacterial growth in those gaps.
@@scw55 most people are eating toxic "vegetable oil" aka seed oils which is basically engine oil and food dyes made from petroleum and coal tar... so most people don't really care what they're eating the food off of
Love the ideas, but as a business you have to depend on a flow of availably of products that you are featuring. So when I seen that you were buying your cutting boards at Hobby Lobby, red flags popped up for me. First how often are these sales? And how many of each shape, size, etc are they going to have on each shape and size of the boards? Might work for a one of a kind order, but what is later that year, your customer feel in LOVE with your work and now they want a dozen cutting boards for Christmas? Will they be on sale, will they have enough quality of what you need. You could find yourself driving or ordering from all over and if you are getting them shipped in, will it give you enough time to complete the project - Just some food for thought when buying retail instead of wholesale. Wishing all, all the best!
Great video, love the ideas! Just to let you know, when i click on the more info button, your link to your course is not active. It is active in the dropdown menu above the messages though.
I bought a rotary with my diode laser, but I still haven't opened it yet. I really want nothing to do with tumblers. I don't really like them personally, and with my luck I'd sell 100s of them and have to engrave them all one at a time...
I am a cricut crafter and recently bought a laser engraver wanted the one you have but was not in my budget so I bought the creality laser Falcon volume 2- 10 watts I've looked everywhere to see if i can laser cups and glasses and cannot find an answer can you help, please
xtool is so expensive that I had to find a cheaper alternative. And I hardly ever carve metal, I work with plywood, and I ended up choosing the Acmer P1 S, I don't think there's a better option for less than $200
you can if there buyers. i would just buy machine to me if i want, bcoz everyone can buy laser machine and do own stuff and see how easy it is. more people have less buyers. you allready safe money buying own machine so you not need buy commercial products lol. do it same home kinda free. material cost only. you not charge man hour. you do it sunday while watching netflix. machine run byself
Maybe I'm weird. If i ask a direct question, i want a direct answer in as few words as possible. If i have to go wading through words when i want a number I'm moving on
That’s fair my friend. With each point, I try to give value with no fluff. If you are looking for direct, precise, impactful articulation I’m not a Ted talk master. If I made a video 2 minutes long, it would have not appeared in your suggested videos. There has to be some sort of length to ensure I get views. Or 16 hours it took to make this short video would fail 😂
@@CorneliusCreations for sure and I enjoyed the video and all it's details. I more meant about when I'm on the hunt for a product I prefer info like the price to be front loaded. I did not intend for my first comment to come off as rude as it probably sounded
