@@pTreesWorkshop of course it was! I just ordered a laser machine from bangoood and I'm watching everything I can non stop about them until it arrives. Even saved your video in a new playlist :)
Just a quick FYI, Lightburn recently raised their prices and the cost for anyone using a Ruida style controller will shell out $120 for the software (Windows and Mac versions).
@@pTreesWorkshop I see that. It felt relaxed and fun, like you were getting into your element and not nervous, over thinking or forcing anything. Great job, again!
What is the measuring tool you used in the beginning of the video. I think it measures the depth of the wood. We just bought an xtool and I want to get my husband a few accessories and I know he doesn’t have that measuring tool thing.😂
This is a great video. Not sure why you don't have many thousands of subscribers but I'm sure it's just a matter of time. You defineitly earned my subscription. Keep up the great work.
Hi Pete! Great video! My husband and I are in the process of choosing a laser to purchase. We saw bad reviews on the Laguna but watching you (and a couple others) on TH-cam, we can’t see what the issues are. Truly. We have a Laguna bandsaw and honestly, we love it. We call it “KC.” Why? Because it slices thru wood like butter … and I have a love of Karen Carpenter whose voice, to me, is smooth like butter. Since the name Karen is now negatively used, I would rather call the bandsaw KC, over Karen. Thanks for your videos … they are keeping the Laguna laser on our serious consideration list!
I’m glad you got some good info out of it! And yes I love this laser. No real issues with it. Works as it’s supposed to. I already want to get the bigger one because my ideas are getting bigger haha. And KC the bandsaw is great. Laguna makes really nice bandsaws. Best of luck with the search!
Hey there, longtime woodworker and CNC (router and plasma) guy here but this is my first laser. I would love some help with setting on the rotary. I have the exact same laser but tumblers aren’t as clean when I burn the image. Would love to help you in some way as a return favor.
Love the video, Pete! Awesome intro (a Pete in a laser, not a box) and that lasered board flip was killer. Bout the only thing you could add was a nice, "They hate us, cause they..." Engraving! 😁. Keep it up buddy!
Great video Pete... I have watched several videos on 3D CO2 lasers, this scales up there. I am looking to get into the CO2 laser space but just can't seem to get a handle on how to get started especially giving the investment on hardware. Question, do you offer any lessons for beginners to this field? Thanks
When you're a grown ass man you can climb inside your laser machine to make a TH-cam video, and then go have ice cream for dinner and no one can say shit about it.
You gotta stop with the laser video's... You're talking me in to buying one even more than myself. Great work. Is your garage heated/insulated? That my only problem right now, mine is not... But I guess the laser could go in the basement with the cnc. Do you wish you could have gone the next size up with the laser?
I’m sorry that I keep posting laser contact! The garage does have a heater in it but it’s only on when I’m in there. This winter was a little challenging because we had some cold nights, but I insulated the shop and that helped a lot. I would sometimes have to preheat it at night and by the morning it was still above freezing. And I’m really glad I went with the size. It really got me started in the hobby however I am looking to upgrade to something bigger now. But it was a great investment and it’ll help me subsidize the cost of a bigger one
FYI, there's masking tapes you can put on your piece before lasering so you don't have to fight the residue from the process....now get off the laser and get to the lathe. I keep telling everybody there's space for an entertaining woodturning UTuber--nothing against any of the ones we all know, but a little humor never hurt anybody...watching a chunk of wood spin just isn't that entertaining.
haha and thanks for the tip. I use masking tape for burning wood. I found that on the tumblers, the residue around the area is not the issue, its right where the laser burns, that needs to get cleaned either way. but I guess it wouldn't hurt either!
Can’t wait to get going with my new laser! That rotary tool is killer.
You are gonna have a great time! its gonna be dope!
I've lost everything on that intro, that was super funny 😂
Haha I’m so glad! And I hope the rest of the video was informative too 😁
@@pTreesWorkshop of course it was! I just ordered a laser machine from bangoood and I'm watching everything I can non stop about them until it arrives. Even saved your video in a new playlist :)
Intro was fire! Enjoyed it Pete!
Thanks Mike! Much appreciated!
Pretty sure you can laser a PONY :)🎉
lmao
@@pTreesWorkshop it would just smell funny.. but hey if your not a vegan, go for it. (smores n. pony)

Oh wow really? Well honestly it’s so good it’s still worth every penny. Thanks for the info

Its so awesome once you get it working. and people get blown away by the process too
This is a great video. Not sure why you don't have many thousands of subscribers but I'm sure it's just a matter of time. You defineitly earned my subscription. Keep up the great work.

Got a quick question. How do you get your computer screen on the camera like that.?
I actually did a screen recording in OBS. Very easy to do ☺️
Great video Pete. Your making want a laser
Everyone should have a laser in their life! even the small ones are awesome!
Awesome video Pete! Great edits ! Awesome content! Look forward to future videos!
Thanks Lee! Really glad you like it! need to make another video soon!

Fantastic video. Only thing I’d improve on is getting me a laser. 😉
Thanks! haha i'll work on that feedback! lol
This is so cool to watch and really makes me want a laser now. My 7w diode just doesn't quite cut it 😂
But I bet it sure does engrave it haha Glad you liked it!
