Rochelle, thank you for the comments, I appreciate it!
Uo
I learned more from these tips than I've learned from multiple videos I've watched. Thank you!
EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you. I like when the presentation is made by an old guy. Because that tells me that you had to feel the same pain like I feel. Don't be offended, I am ~10 years older than you 😉. Again, thank you....Bernd
Glad it was helpful!
Like many others I've watched lots of tutorial videos to try and get to grips with my Atomstack laser. I have to say this was by far the most informative of them all, well done and thank you.
Awesome, thank you!
Still battling with my Atomstack m8
Love your videos. Each one has clear, uncomplicated instructions for each step. One of the best Laser/Lightburn channels I’ve watched (and I’ve watched plenty!) Look forward to more.
Wow, thanks! really appreciated your comments.
Please do more Lightburn video's....this one was great. You are awesome at explaining things. Thank you for going slow, some other people just go so fast and click so fast before I can see what's going on and follow.
Thanks, will do!
This has been the BEST video I have watched on Lightburn so far. Your simple explanations make it easy to understand and comprehend exactly what you are explaining. I can't wait to watch your other videos and see what you have planned for the future! Thank you so much.
Thanks you for your input, I appreciate it. Lots of great stuff in the pipeline!
I just found your channel today! I received a xTool D1 for Christmas and have been having a lot of fun with it. I am also new to Lightburn and your videos have really been helping me out! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Oh thanks a million, you solved a big problem I’ve had!👌🏼👏🏼it was so difficult to solve as I didn’t know what to do a search for. Tip number 8, where instead of outlining the object, I can outline my design. So appreciate this & each video you make. You are so down to earth & talk in basic language making everything so understandable. Kind regards, Denise in Australia 🇦🇺 😊
Thank you for the comments, I appreciate it. Glad I could help!
You're awesome! Seriously! Thank you so very much for doing all of these videos! I still have months until my laser arrives...but I'm trying to use this time and take all of this stuff in so I can get rollin' right away! Again...THANK YOU!!!!
Congrats on your laser purchase, I know before I got my laser I spent allot of time on TH-cam taking in anything I could watch, It really helped. I appreciate your comments!
Thanks so much I'm 50 and I just bought my first laser nova 63. Your videos are super helpful geared for the everyday guy. I thank you
I appreciate your comments, congrats on the big boy! that’s awesome!
As a new laser user, I find more information on your channel than all of the other post put together. Thank you!

allot of the time it’s because your home origin is not set correctly
Great video, thanks!
You're welcome!
Awesome video for someone new like me. Going to sub. Thank you
Thanks for the sub!
Thanks for the tip about the notes, that one I didn't know.
A counter opinion about making adjustments at the controller.
I try not to make any adjustments at the controller unless I have to because the membrane switches on the controller have a very finite lifespan. Once one of the membranes breaks, that button will stop working and they cannot be repaired only replaced. Since these membrane switches mount directly to the main PC board in the controller, if any moisture gets through a cracked membrane your controller is not long for the world. Your computer mouse is much easier and cheaper to replace.
