Your demonstration gave clear directions to what i was looking for, thank you sir.
Dear Roger, I learned lot of things about your videos and I very happy to see if you share a new one.
I wish you Happy New Year !
Greeting from Hungary
Thank you for clear explanations!
Definitely happy new year from New Zealand first, hours and hours ahead in the land down under 😀
Happy New year from Paris (France). Thanks for the video.
Many thanks Roger!...You've been very thorough and help me understand the process!
Thank you, for watching, Please like, subscribe and forward the video on to a friend, Roger Clyde Webb
Happy New Year Roger, in Argentina we´re still waiting the 2018, but my best wishes to you and your family, enjoy it!! and thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!
"We pretty much get the new year first before anyone else". Did you forget New Zealand -12hrs, Fiji -13hrs or Kiribati -14hrs? Australia east coast -10hrs.
Lol I love that Australian perspective.
Happy new year!
Love your videos
Awesome, many thanks for this great tutorial, Happy new year Roger.
Happy new year!
Thank you for the great info!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Roger, wish you were in the UK. I could do with a chat. Our laser at my school is similar to that one but i can't get that kind of performance out of it :-(. I figured out the focus lens was in upside down which helped but i can't even get it to cut 6mm ply without using 100 % power and about 6mm speed.
Thank you for this and all your great videos Sir!!! I am trying hard to buy me a laser. I have wanted one for years. However I’m not gonna waste my money on anything less than a pretty good 150, co2, cutting/engraving laser. I expect to pay at least $12,00.oo to $15,000.oo for just a decent one. Does that sound feasible? That actually wasn’t what I wanted to ask. My question was, will a laser cut just regular plywood bought from Lowes or anywhere else or does it have to be special bought and a certain type wood made just for lasers? Sorry if it’s a stupid question but I am brand new at this. I have noticed you have several videos out. I have seen some of them. However this one today really helped me understand so much better. I am going to all your videos and liking them all as well as subscribing. Actually just did subscribe. If you have time to answer,thank you so much. If not, I understand. I know you must be answering tons of comments. Also, this is totally unrelated but I also have a TH-cam channel. I’d love for you to visit. I’m not asking you to like or subscribe but rather just get an idea of who I am. If you wanted to check my page out it is “”Rapidrob @robjtko.” Only if you wanted to of course. Again If you can answer I would be so greatful! Your videos are excellent!! Thank you and GOD bless, my friend!!!
Hello Roger. Very nice and well explained videos. May I ask you what type of air assist are you using please?
Hi Roger! Always very interesting videos!
I also work on this software recently .. and I still have to understand exactly how you set the coordinates of the start of work. can you help me?
Thanks
Excellent, thank you Roger, just made up my mind on whether to buy 80 or 100 !!
Glad to help
@@rogerwebb9600 Thanks, one question the small red dot laser that you use on the machines do you know where to get these from please. thank you.
I really enjoy your videos laser fascinates me I ran a 750 watt laser for 12 years the one thing I did cutting squares was put a small radius on each corner that way it doesn’t hesitate maybe just 15-20 thousandths and I tried to get the focal point at center thickness of my material I don’t know if that would work on your laser the one I ran cut up to 1/4 steel I used a variety of different gases depending on the material I cut.
I have been retired 11 years so a lot has changed
Jerry Puckett Very useful comment! Thanks for the great trick!
Makes sense. Less chance of stopping and less change direction.
Hey Roger. Great Video. Thanks for all Your effort. I am just starting my adventure with laser and met an issue with curvy plywood. I see You are using sort of magnetic distancing. Can You please give me some info about it?
I wonder if changing the bed height so that the focal point of the laser is in the vertical middle of the thing you are cutting would be advantagous. If it is focused on the vertical top, the beam would be wider and more diffused on the bottom, making for less reliable cut throughs.
Sorry, another question! What are those metal ‘raisers’ you are using to hold the plywood up off the cutting table? Are they better than using it directly on the honeycomb - guessing it would help with not getting smoke and burn marks on the underside of the wood?
Great video...what size is that laser cutter and how much does it cost...
there are other types pof plastics that can be engraved and cut with a laser machine like abs, pp, pe etc. the plastic should not contain chloride as in the case of vinyl.
ps , i've run a lots of tests at different powers and speeds.
Zum wohle! In spite of having summer Down There ?!
Did you have Kerbal space program on in the background or were you just using the hangar music?
@ 75% what MA are you putting out?
its 2021, with that sneeze, everyone just looked at you like you were going to kill them!!!!!!
Hey Roger, why do you say the only plastic your should cut is acrylic? Surely methyl methacrylate isn't too healthy?!?!? What about polyethylene or polypropylene?
Is this 10mm plywood?
14:43 bless you.
Hello Roger. can you please send me the parameters in general, the settings you have on this machine, if it's easy for you? I mean the settings from cut,engrave, speed and more. please
Hi, there is a facility on my patron pages for technical help

Hi Roger, just wondering what plywood you use? Do you stick with a laser plywood (ie: expensive!) or a AA plywood (from say Bunnings?)
Thanks
All plywood is ok
Roger Webb Thanks Roger, I was told laser ply was what we had to use due to having ‘special glues’ that don’t burn, but I guess all we really need to do is just do some test (like you have here) to find the correct speed to avoid burning!
What type of plywood did you use ? And was your laser cutting machine the OMtech 100w ?
Hi, a Thunder Laser is a good build quality and I would not buy anything else. I now have a Thunder Laser Nova 35 100watt
Hi, how are you? I got 100W laser too, but your setting for plywood does not working for my laser. I had 9mm ply and setting was 5mm/s and 95%. More speed or lesser power did not cut. I dont know where is the problem.
Hi, see my video 207, 220 and 221
Roger Webb thank you for your answer. Now i use 65% and 16mm/s for 8mm birch ply. But could i next question? Smoking and ,,burning” around cut is normal? In your videos i did not see strong smoking but in my laser when i cutting i have got very strong smoking. I have nice brown cut but still burning around cut. I dont know why. I tried milion parameters and setting about speed and power. Still burning, still smoking.
@@Aawaasstt try masking tape on the material before your cut & later hand sand it
What thickness is this? My laser cant cut nearly that speed
9mm
which software use for lesser....?
LaserCut 6.x
