I got my daughter a L8 20w, but I've been thinking of getting this one for myself.
Nice pro/con video, I had already decided this is what I was getting, but this helped me have a clearer picture of why.
And, as I said before, I'll be using your link when I do it near Christmas.
Really great review, detailed, thorough!!! Thank you
Thanks the best review of the actual machine. We are tired of watching a unboxing video and show the roller machine. Yours is actually a review for everyday joe laser people. THANK YOU
Let me know what else you would like to know about
Thank you. Looking forward to more videos on it in action. Good job.
Thanks for the video. Even though it sounds like a commercial, everything he says is true. I've never owned , assembled or operated a laser before. I bought a 10/20 lasermatic in December. Received it. Had assembled and operating within an hour doing my first project. I would say I'm a bit spoiled from the stories I've heard about other products. In the second week of operating the laser I purchased your our Father cross and made which I think is a pretty good accomplishment for a novice. I'm looking forward to additional videos that you put out on the laser to see how I might learn to expand my experience with the roly lasermatic.
Thanks again!
I just made the cross in 6mm walnut ply and it was clean as can be. That is the best test I can think of. I did test the engraving 10-30w as well for my next video. :)
One thing I'm surprised by is that they haven't gone AIO Water cooling block for the laser, as those are MUCH for efficient than direct fan cooling.
But then I mix up "service" tool use between different hobbies, maybe they haven't thought of it?
I think the fan has dual use as it also pushes the smoke away even without an air assist. Just a guess is this is above my pay grade :)
@@ValleyForged oh, yeah, that actually makes sense. doh. LOL
I’m getting really close to buying one of these! I’ve been watching, researching and watching prices. Finger is on the trigger but can’t seem to pull it yet. I’m a beginner, no laser experience, older (68), want to do mostly leather work (lots of experience there) - somewhat concerned with the learning curve for light burn software. Hoping the price will go down if a new model comes out. Love your videos! Thank you.
I have not trouble recommending this laser to you. Lightburn is pretty easy to learn really, and thanks to TH-cam there are thousands of videos to show you how.
Is lightburn the only program you can run it on? Is there a free lightburn or is it subscription only?
@@greenvenus02You only have to pay once. There are other programs, but honestly if you can't afford lightburn, I am not sure it is worth buying a laser until you can. My opinion
🤔 I wonder if they could rework things to use the air assist incoming air as the laser module cooling source and remove that fan completely. Would also help keep the module clean(er) long-term because it wouldn’t be circulating the inner warm-smoke air like the current fan does.
Might need to boost the air-assist flow capacity to compensate, but that’s a nice stationary unit that can be optimized and noise-managed independently of the moving laser module.
I know they are working on a whole new system. I don't know enough about the internal structure to know if your idea works. Nice that you are thinking in other ways though. That is half the fun.
Was the machine that quit offering support Atezr? I bought two 36 watt machines and sent them both back. Both had issues and zero support. I bought the Roly and have been in regular contact with Leo. He’s great! Quick tip on the Roly. If you use the chuck roller, some larger tumblers are too big around. You can remove the floor and mount it to the bottom of the enclosure and use spacers. That way you can still use the locating pins with the roller. I mentioned it to Leo, he said he’s going to look at incorporating that in the future.
Yes, the Atezr. I loved mine, but cannot recommend the brand anymore.
Great video! Where did you get the black exhaust hose adapter?
Amazon lol
Think im going in on this one. I was leaning to the s1... but this just seems like a no brainer
I am happy to put my name behind this one. Roly really does have a tremendous product. I never have to second guess if it will work the way it should, which is so much less stress. I think the 30w is back in stock soon. Use my link of course, and keep me posted on how you like it. :)
@@ValleyForged definitely thank you (thats my next decision.. wait for the 30 or go for the 20) lol
What do you mean that there is nothing below the honeycomb? From all the images of the LaserMatic I've seen, it is fully enclosed with a metal floor that's removable if you want to engrave something below the unit. Did you remove the metal bottom piece?
I think that was just poorly worded. I think he meant there is nothing directly touching under the honeycomb.
Yes, it has a metal floor. It is just far below the honeycomb bed, so it does not effect the laser in any way.
Should I be worried about keeping this machine in my garage if it gets up to 95 degrees in the garage?
That is probably fine, but I would try to keep it a little cooler when running it for long periods. I think when it gets colder can be more of an issue.
What size power bank do you recommend going to craft shows
I have no idea. That is not really my expertise. I have an Oupes 2100w that will pretty much do whatever I need, but I hardly use it.
Are you trying to make us sick with the camera movement?
Did it work?
@@ValleyForged A bit woozy feeling like I was on a boat.
