I can't figure out how to upload my own images. It makes me fill in every single box and select a cutlab only file AFTER I've already selected my upload file.

Can I ask a favor 👉🏻👈🏻 can you plug the enclosure usb ports directly into a computer and see if windows recognizes it as a camera? I believe I have a defective safety enclosure and LP support is yanking me around blaming my LP5 saying it’s not compatible. When I plug the enclosure into my computer just for fun it says the device is malfunctioned, just curious what a known working one says. Merry Christmas!

Thanks buddy

How about making a video on cleaning the laser head fan and lens window? Thanks Tim

An outstanding presentation - thank you

Hi Greg, thank you for your consistently amazing videos! Wishing you all the joy and blessings of the holiday season!😊🌲🌲

Is better than co2 about the clean of final result

The camera looks like it speeds up layout- thanks for the video

I have put off using the rotary for my Onyx for a year. With major help from your video, I finally took the plunge and ventured into doing some tumblers. Yeah, I had to do some experimenting, knowingly wasting a perfect good tumbler (now my new practice tumbler), I now have got a good handle on getting great results. Thanks!

I do appreciate the time you spend on testing the various methods to laser engrave (etch) glass. My comments are a bit off topic, but, I do receive excellent results with the black Tempura paint that provides a nice, white etch, BUT, to achieve the best results, I have to use my airbrush to apply several, 3,4,7 coats to achieve a good thickness that works great. Now, I have just tried a single coat of the cold galvanized - Rust-oleum - and setting my 30 watt Longer B1 laser to 4000 mm/min, 80% power, with a .08 line interval, I do get a very nice black etching. As I was expecting a "white" etch, I'm liking the black finish that my test glass showed. I have also tried the TiS02 on glass and to receive the best results, a thicker coating works best for me. My white 4x4 ceramic tiles result with a great black finish and again, a thicker coating is the trick with a "too light" of a coat giving a splotchy uneven black result. The TiS02 that I tried on an old hot sauce bottle did result in a black etch, but, I could/should have used a thicker coat to have a "more dense" black burn. Whatever coating that you use, the hardest part is to apply your mask in an EVEN coat that is "thick enough" to achieve the best results. Thanks again..... Hank

Hi, can I ask you if the xTool 1064nm Infrared Laser module is compatible with the normal xtool D1?

A point if note. I watched this with great interest since getting my K1 PRO 48/24. What you don't mention in this excellent video is that applying the x axis correction for the crosshair is that it eats up the available work space on the right side by that amount. My previous laser had a true 400mm X 400mm work space which I was fully able to use. When I apply my +53mm correction on the X-Axis on my new K1 it eats up the 410mm X 410mm to become 410mm X 360mm so now many of my saved projects that were made to maximize available space get out of limits errors when I use the cross hairs. That was one of the reasons I bought this machine was to use the cross hairs with a camera . Since losing this space I don't use the cross hairs for most jobs and just go with a 1% laser fire to position my work piece. I value a larger work area over everything else.🤔😪

I have obtained great results with the black Tempera paint when applied in somewhat thicker coats. To that end, I did use my airbrush to apply several coats and this method did provide a smooth, even coat. I tried to use a foam brush and the subsequent coats had to be applied quickly as they wanted to dissolve the previous coat,(s), and it was difficult to obtain a good, even coverage. Looks like you used the "blue" spray chalk and am thinking that a black colored chalk spray would give better results? Thank you for performing most all the different tests that I would have had to perform myself, and, for the simplicity of application and cleanup, (the airbrush is a PIA to clean), the spray chalk - BLACK - will be my next test masking. Most importantly, for any masking agent you may want to use, performing a "material test" is really mandatory to discover the burn settings you laser will perform best at. Thanks again....

Can you assist me with meetk40t using Lightburn I seem to have it setup but no movement I have a Basic Reno

Does the color of the spray chalk matter?

Nice review. Definitely much higher build quality than the usual K40. It would have been nice to know if the control board is Lightburn compatible or not (I believe it is). Looks like they have incorporated some of Russ Sadlers suggestions that make mirror alignment much, much, easier. Overall I would recommend it based on what I see in the video.

Nice review- refreshing to see someone sharing their honest experience- keep up the great videos

I really like the adjustable bed as well as the larger window to see what's going on. I have a feeling that bed might be limited though and you won't be able to put larger items in there or use a roller.

Is there a white color for this

Great video- straight to the point

Hi Greg - do you have a list or link anywhere on here where you ordered your magnets, etc? I've done a couple searches through your videos, but not finding it. I ordered some on amazon, but they were tiny - I didn't pay close enough attention, but would love to order the red magnetic strips you use. Thanks again - loving your page.

Thank you for showing the metal business cards - I was struggling with getting a setting that works well. This video was such a huge help!!!

Bought one. Thx

Hi Greg, sorry to bother you again, but I need some advise regarding my choice of which laser would be best for me. I will be cutting and engraving mostly small stuf in wood, the wife is into 1:12 miniaturen. Been looking at several lasers like the Roly lasermatic MK2, the Acmer P3 and several more like these. Would a Longer Nano Pro meet up with my needs? Don’t really need the big 400 x 400 space, and another big advantage in my opinion is the lack of moving parts in for example the Longer. If you find the time, please share your wishdom with me! Thanks in advance!

Thanks for reffering me to this video with the enclosure, Greg! I certainly will be doing some more research. This however looks really great, will be on my possiblitylist, for sure!

As always, great review!! Looking for a first laser and so I am exploring YT. This one looks great, only thing I would like to see is a fume extractor, like with the enclosed model outthere… Keep up the good work and thanks again!

Thanks for this informative overview. What are your thoughts on upgrading the air assist to an external aquarium pump like you did with the Onyx?

Is JL7 kinda the same as K40, where it's a generic machine that many different companies put their name on? I have a KentokTool JL7, and I just saw a video with another company's JL7, and they're all the same. I like mine - very good quality for the price.

The engravings look great! What is the adobe subscription where you got the images?

Another way of doing it. Apply some adhesive film to cover the glass completely. Use the laser to cut the film as per design peeling larger sections where necessary. Using a small sandblaster attachment for your compressor sand blast the glass to produce a frosted appearance whereby the remaining film performs the function of a mask. Finally remove the remaining adhesive film.

2w all day long

Thanks for going beyond basic specs!

had to stop and think of why they'd use such and old style usb to computer connection, then remembered that the machine is most likely going to be in an industrial setting and usbc just isn't robust enough to withstand much dust/debris. or at least that was the conclusion I came up with in my head for it. thanks for attention to this machine, it kinda scratches that perfect itch.

Great video!

I purchased a 20w vision but it’s basic, does the basic have the ability to add a rotary..?

Thank you! Really nice covering lightburn. I just purchased and assembled.

I've heard people complain that the plywood moves a little to the side when moving thru, have you had this happen? Thanks

The software you were using? Did you say LPS? Is this included with the package?

Couple of questions: 1. Does the software (lightburn i think you called it) for setting up the cut files come with the USB that is provided? If not, can I just use any software compatible with laser cutters like AutoCAD? 2. What is exactly everything that I need in order for it to run and what else is optional?

What part of Wisconsin do you live???

Nice review...do you have to buy a chiller? Any details would be appreciated,

Thank you so much for the perfect video about aligning the mirrors on Monport 40 w.

I would like to see some more reviews before I make my purchase. Looks beautiful though.

Most interesting is that the cold galvanizing appears to have darkened the engraved glass. I'm guessing that's because some of the zinc from the paint is melted into the glass, and zinc tends to darken as it oxidizes, acetone quickens that oxidation. Speaking of.... harsh chemicals are not needed for cleanup. You can use a razor blade scraper on areas that haven't been engraved to scrape away the paint. Then, I just use soap & hot water for all my paint cleanups on the engraved glass.... the trick is, I use stainless steel wool to scrub it down. Stainless Steel is softer than glass so it won't scratch the glass, but it easily removes the paint. It's expensive, but a single ball of stainless steel wool has lasted me 3x longer than a whole package of regular steel wool.

Excellent video. Very well presented at a nice speed for the novice. How did you place the round slate in the square accurately?

Thank you

Nice job on the review, interesting laser. I look forward to the Mega, hopefully they have one coming your way.

Great presentation. Thanx!

Thnx ur great sir

Can you add a link where you bought the material please?
