tried this on some cotton tote bags and a t-shirt on my D1 pro. It looks great but disappears completely when washing it. Is it possible to make it stick?
Out of curiosity, are you just burning at a power-level that doesn't cause char/smoke damage to the non-engraved areas of the leather? Every single time I try to engrave leather, it puts this char around the engraving that I can't usually get off. Yours isn't doing that at all - I assume that's a power setting?
This is so good Martin. I'm glad you are supplementing your revenue stream, and yet still enjoying your own work of doing professional design. You will come back stronger after this. I foresee a fruitful 2024 in your future, and I can't be happier for you. Congratulations and I eagerly await your next videos!
Sehr gute Idee mit dem merch! Und vor allem cooles Design! Hab mir gleich nen Shirt bestellt! 🙂 Wünsch dir viel Erfolg damit! … und freu mich auf viele weitere Videos von dir! 😉
I have always appreciated your hard work!!! Had no idea the Chanel was in trouble!!! Please forgive my neglect!!! Notifications on and ready to craft!!! Thank you for all you do!!! Your advice is very helpful 🤘🤘🤘
Hi. I do my printing with Falcon. When the laser machine has engraved on T-Shirt the come is amazing. Until I washed it. After washing the design was washed away. Remain only a light step after engraving which you can hardly notice. I tried different settings and a lot of black T-shirts I tried. After washing all design was wasted away. Even after engraving try to scribble with your nail or finger, the design wash away. Do you have a different experience?
Hallo Martin, welche Einstellungen hast du nun verwendet zum Lasern? Ich habe auch den Falcon 2 mit 22 Watt, aber meine Versuche mit Baumwollshirts endeten mit Löchern oder das weiß konnte man direkt wieder abkratzen. Wäre super, wenn Du die Lasereinstellungen für den Falcon 2 hier teilen könntest!
Thank you for this, I am trying something similar but find the etch finish rubs off very quickly so the image is barely recognisable - have you come across this as well?
Fantastic! I just bought this laser and had NO IDEA it could laze a tshirt! Have to admit, I'm looking around to see what else I can laze in my house! Thank you for sharing this idea!
I think a cheap laser would be enough for engraving a t-shirt. I have an acmer p1 s and I think it can engrave details very accurately, the size is large enough to fit any t-shirt, and the price is more attractive than any lasers.
Hey Martin, love your work. Maybe some simple paint masks in the merch shop might be cool. This way, your fans could do a little customizing of their own with a design done by one of the coolest guys in the business? 😉
I'm a follower but never commented before. I was touched by your recent struggles and seeing you share the stoke again is indeed relieving!! If there's a TH-camr I'll gladly support well, that's you Martin. I'll definetely visit your merch shop! Tieni duro amico!
Red light: this video and others are not even touching THE MOST IMPORTANT information about thise lasers: how many runing hours will it last? Is it 50 hours on 100% power and laser will degrade by 10-20-30%? Or maybe 1000 hours and you have to buy a new one? Whatbis the truth? This machie IS EXPENSIVE and laser replacement will kill the whole thing financially. Not mentioning this spec is unfair and i thinking like this: if they are not touching this subject that means the laser life time is shitty.
The life expectancy of a uv laser is 10-15.000 hours. And a CO2 laser will last 5.000-10.000 hours. That's about 5-10 years worth of use. So it's not an issue. A laser like that is rarely going to be used at 100%, and even then for short bursts. Also, it does not degrade. You have to clean the lens once in a while.
Martin
As a sprayer myself you've hit the nail on the head with that slogan
I like it
Looks like I'll be heading over to your shop my friend 👌
Troy Lee Designs = level 5, Martin Grey = Level 11!!!!
😎First video I have seen to use a laser to make a image on a tee shirt, interesting, 😎video
Love it - let's get busy.
(making Martin rich❤)
I am glad to know you are keeping the art flowing and taking us onboard Martin. Never give up... eyes on the prize!

So what setting did you use for speed and power
I did this, it falls apart after a couple washes 😢

True artist. Nothing fazes him when it comes to creating something out of nothing.

Hello！
I have a question.
Can I do this with a white T-shirt?
Love this design, as a 10 yr car painter, and my dad who painted over 40 yrs, I think this is gonna be a cool Christmas gift. Buying 2 on payday
CASI 2 HORAS DE GRAVADO Y LAPRIMER LAVADA EL DISEÑO NO QUEDA. :/ NO RECOMENDADO EN CAMSETAS

Tieni duro amico!
so if you never wash your shirts this great, but after one soft wash the whole "print" is gone
How thin is it on the logo. How many washes can the shirt handle before the threads start breaking
love the comment about buying laser for shirts
very straight forward and extremely informative, thanks ser
How did you do the test and what software did you use?
Martin, idea for a T-shirt logo “ This is what I like so let’s do it! “ 🤟
You just funny and nice german dude! Thanks for the great video!
Geile Shirts, hoffe auf noch ein Design evtl für Rennrad Fahrer :) würde ich direkt bestellen :) mach weiter so
You could use the laser to build screens for screen printing
Im buying the hoddie for myself for xmas.
Completely dig the wall design you created in your shop there as shown at 2 minutes in.
Thanks you can find the complete tutorial of the wall design here: th-cam.com/video/XkFp5UE3Qdw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zdy_-gEGau5XI9_e
Love the design Martin!

Good point in business terms.
