Laser Engrave a 40oz Stanley Tumbler Step By Step | Thunder Laser Bolt | Rotoboss Talon & Rotobolt
Today we’ll walk through engraving a Stanley 40oz Full Wrap Tumbler from start to finish. We'll cover how to deal with the tilt, the focal distance, the differences between setting up for a chuck-style rotary vs a roller rotary, and more. I'll be demonstrating in my @ThunderLaserUSA Bolt using my rotaries from @rotobossrotaryattachments.
I'll demonstrate both the Rotoboss Talon and a quick look at the Rotobolt.
Please use my settings cautiously - 400/75 - is likely a bit heavy on the power at a slower speed than you may need. Every laser (even the same brand, and same tube) will perform slightly differently.
Tests on your own machine are very important. With the Bolt, I like to start at 40...

    your square you made in lightburn wasn't actually square. it was 25.4 x 28.331. You should turn the lock OFF and adjust both sides of the square to be equal. I'm assuming your steps per rotation are making up for it somehow. Thanks for the video by the way, all the Thunder videos make lots of assumptions that we know what we are doing already :)

    Hi! i am so glad i stumbled upon your channel! I do not live in the USA so normally order acrylic from specific vendors for better deals, would you say that any cast glossy white will do or does it have to be gloss one side and matted on the reverse? Also do i have to sublimate the entire surface to void heat marks on the Clear acrylic? I tried an image in the middle of the frame so that i could engrave the rest and use an LED base, but there were like heat marks on the areas with no sub.

    • @ThingsKatieMakes

    Hii!! Thanks so much for your video. I wanted to ask if your acrylic warped or anything? I’ve watched a lot for research and most needed to weigh it down to prevent the warping, and also some have shown themselves needing to scrub off the sub paper afterwards. Did you have any of these issues? Thank you!

    • @ThingsKatieMakes

      I wouldn’t worry much about fire - if you pay attention and are vented properly, you’ll catch any small fires before they become something big. Off cuts can still smell after cutting, especially acrylic. You can add fine extractors if it bothers you. I don’t wear noise protection, but maybe I should!
