1,000 mm per Second? 2,000 DPI? FULL SEND. Thunder Laser BOLT. 020 4K

For engraving the speed, power and such I think you can use variable text for that. I forget how to do it but it’s there somewhere.

Seems to cause a lot of wasted material when you have to allow for the over run of the laser head to give it time to heat up at the edges. My laser I can start right in the corner of the material, no real wasted material.

I process my images in photoshop where you have far more leverage to bring out the details, but most images can use lightburns invert and gamma settings to get good results, just depends on the job. The name of the game is full speed with the lowest power setting unless you dont mind a deeper engraving or thats what you are going for.

Im nervous about those delrin wheels on the gantry, they wear out on 3d printers and Im just not convinced they will hold up to years of abuse especially when engraving.

From your video your goal was to stay high speed. What I found was 250mm/sec; 27.5 min/max power gave me the best results. 0.050 interval or 508 DPI in Stucki using the 1.5" lens. My image had a lot of contrast. Gama had to be tweaked to 250ish with an enhanced radius of 4 in photo adjustments. Great video by the way.

Wow great work. Thanks 👍

Thanks for this. I'm confused as to why lowering the Minimum setting slows the laser down, I thought Max/Min settings only affected the power level, not the speed?

catching up on all the missed GP Outdoors snow clearing videos and got to the video where you mention the new channel, well here I am!

Hi Gord..
Wow.. I am really impressed.
I love the way the pictures came out. ❤️ Wow…
Thanks for sharing with us..
I think you are ready to do some orders.
Cheers my friend

That is REALLY impressive Gord. Love the logical, detailed breakdown on thought process and procedures. 👍👍

Hi G.P, that machine is amazing. I’ve seen it burn different kinds of wood and metal. Does it work on glass? And have you tried any glass? Great video G.P.

Great job Gord, interesting how those machines work and how they can be programed . Good seeing Lil GP at her work carrying her weight. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

Hi Gord, well done, and very nice pictures! Thanks for the great explanations and detailed information.
