WARNING: Desktop laser cutters are very dangerous! It's important to keep it in an isolated, enclosed, and well ventilated area, as well as make sure the material you plan on cutting aren't treated with chemicals that might release when laser cutting

[@ElevatedSystems]

All tools have some risk, but overall I’d say the table saw the laser is sitting on is a more dangerous tool than the laser. Both however are perfectly safe as long as you follow their basic safety procedures.

I couldnt click play fast enough. Dude, we live vicarious through you. Keep doing your thing. Blessings

[@Dawns_Creative_Carousel]

Sam has a video on fixing that laser wiring harness too! I believe it was him that changed the way the thing is secured, if you haven’t yet check it out

[@mcalin5931]

I use the same machine for cutting manufacturer logos into acrylic for rgb panels, i wish i got one that could cut clear!

[@AnirudhTammireddy]

All of your videos are well produced. Thanks for the vids!

[@sentranne]

That’s awesome

[@cd9954]

This is sick, would love to have access to one of these

[@marcruijs1039]

I really like this kind of content! I'm currently close to dialing in my 3D printer, and was also impressed with how your framework case turned out, which got me curious about laser cutters/engravers. However, because I knew nothing about them, (and also since I still have a 3d printer to play with), I kind of dismissed the idea of looking into them. This video gave me a very basic idea of how a machine like this works, what the software is like, and what you can expect. I found it very useful! Might look into getting one after all, thanks to you!

[@ElevatedSystems]

A laser is much simpler than a 3D printer to master. There is practically no learning curve.

[@marcruijs1039]

@@ElevatedSystems that's very appealing! Now the only thing to overcome is the price.. but first I gotta save up for a 16 inch framework 😇

[@yghhhhrffv]

Good video

[@Dawns_Creative_Carousel]

How about an exhaust???

[@floriansoul]

if i want to engrave one usb stick , how does this laser machine know where to work on it?

[@ElevatedSystems]

6:25 shows how to position the laser and frame the job. For a USB stick I would try the center position.
