Are you a husky? Go Dawgs. Great video, thanks so much, they are really well done and informative.
Haha- no, we live down by a river that has wolf in the name!
@@thelaserchannel1, oh, makes sense......guess you can tell I'm from Western WA. haha. I have the name Bear in the creek near me, I gotta dig up some Bear files. Haha
@@phaleen I'm in Snohomish! GO DAWGS!
Enjoyed the video. I really like the "T's" you made. I'm making some for my grid today! i tried to find the magnets but the largest Amazon was showing was 60mm x 10mm. trying to learn as much as I can. got my D1pro in last week!
That's great to hear! Thanks!
Just found you, great videos, thank you!
You are welcome and Thank You! More videos are coming!
Great video also where did you get that hoodie? Love it!
Thanks! The hoodie is from a triathlon club I belonged to years ago- it's my fav hoodie!
Mine does not say fee download it just says download? Also you left out the part I struggle with after you download what do you do also it asks for donations. Thank you
Pixabay has recently updated their website downloading. It's still free, the download button is still green and located on the right side of the screen with a 1/2 arrow pointing down indicating more download options of resolution or file types. I recommend creating a log in account (also free) before downloading. Thanks for watching and hope this helps.
Hi there, do you have a tutorial on how to use a color photo and adjust it to b&w to engrave?
Hi- I don't have a video on using a color photo converting for engraving. I'll add it to the list of upcoming videos!
I would like to find out more about the 'Ts' please.
Never mind I found them, thank you for all your great information!
@@mawmann Excellent- glad you found them!
The lion behind you beautiful
Where did you get the file? Parameters?
Thanks! The lion image was a stock image from a long time ago... can't recall where I sourced it, but Pixiabay.com is a great resource for images! Settings- I used Grey Scale 0-100% at 100 mm/s this all depends on the type of wood used and the wood finish. Thanks for watching!
Enjoyed your video. Trying to learn as much as I can before my x tool arrives. Where it you get the wooden hold downs you used or did you make them?
Hi Jon- I have these two links- this first one is what I'm using, community.glowforge.com/t/honeycomb-bed-holdown-pins/18652 I just had to scale it to make is little smaller for the xtool honeycomb bed. Here's another one that should work: facebook.com/groups/xtoold1/permalink/3293173647672207
Let me know if either of them work for you! I used 1/4" birch plywood for mine. Dollar Tree plywood can also work with some size scaling! Enjoy!
@@thelaserchannel1 Thanks. I ordered my D1 from xtool last week. I can not wait to get it. I will try what you sent me out when I get it and set up.
Do you have a cut file for the tee tie down?
Cut file added to the description. Resize the t-pin as needed to fit your honeycomb; each brand has a slightly differently size.
What are you using to exhaust fumes from your work? Great video, thanks.
I have an inline exhaust fan with a 4" hose size- its' a about 200 cfm.
I like your enclosure! Did you purchase it or did you make it? If self made can you provide a material list and dimensions/directions to make.
By the way, your videos are superb!
Thanks! Here's the info-30" wide, 26" deep, and 12" tall. It's made from white shelving boards 12" wide; I also used 2 piano hinges and 1 2ft by 4ft 1/4 thick birch ply. I don't have any build plans as I built it on the fly! Enjoy 😀
@@thelaserchannel1 Thank you! I have a bunch of 8 inch wide oak boards at our fishing camp that I may use to put one together.
What safety glasses are you using and do they come with tool purchase?
Hi- I'm using the glasses that came with the laser machine. I have a number of laser machines and they all came with a pair of laser tinted safety glasses.
Where did you get the air assist nozzle?
Hi- I purchased the assist kit directly from xtool. I came with the nozzle, air line, and pump which is really quiet. I wanted something I know would work and had all the pieces and parts!
Can you tell me how do I go about cutting out certain parts of an image before starting the engraving process? Because I want to engrave some metal cards with an image but they are already printed on and I don't want the image the go over the words. I don't know how to go about this
That is a really tough one with the lettering already engraved- I can't think of a quick or easy method to achieve the look you need.
@@thelaserchannel1 appreciate you anyway bro, ill keep researching
Missed the part where you used a photo…
Where did you get those t-clips at?
That is a very good question- I may have to make a new file from scratch! I'll let you know what I come up with! Thanks for watching!
