How To Clean Your CO2 Laser

- It's time to show my Mira some love. Today I am taking the day to thoroughly clean my beast of a machine! From the honey comb tray, to the blades, and nozzle, the optics and chiller, I'll show you how I clean it all. Please keep in mind that the suggestions I make in this video are just that, suggestions. How often you clean your machine will greatly depend on how frequently you are using it. Someone who runs their laser 40 hours a week will certainly need to clean it much more frequently than someone who uses it spare time.
Materials:
Distilled Water
Totally Awesome (You can also dilute it with water to make it last longer)
Rags
Q-Tips
Gloves
Plastic Storage Bin
Plastic Sheeting
Pressure Cleaner (Optional)
Lens Cleaning Kit

This Channel is a TREASURE to follow! You're sharing so much value! Thank you!
So much value it's making me rethink buying a Glowforage. I think I want this one.
@@chellehaney942 the GF is a nice machine for the hobbyist. For someone who is building a business, an industrial grade machine is much more efficient. Feel free to PM me on IG or FB if you have questions. :) facebook.com/thatmomwithalaser
@@ThatMomWithALaser I'll totally reach out, thank you. I tend to make a business, along with my silversmithing. Just creating more capital lol.
Great Job! Awesome Tips! Thnx
Great video 😎
Thank You!!! My vector files got squiggly. I think it's time to clean. My best guess is that scraps are building in the bottom and affecting gears and belts.
Oh you always put just the exact video I need to learn or is extra interesting. Love seeing projects🥰, but these maintenance instructions are so needed as well. Hope to have my Mira 7 out of crate this week🤞🏼😁🤗🇦🇺
How exciting!
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Felix Diego instablaster :)
@Aydin Owen Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Aydin Owen it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
Hi! Do you have a video on how to clean the extraction fan on a Mira 7?
There are some areas of my Glowforge (like the door right in front of the honeycomb tray) that seem to build up lots of resin from burning wood. I solved that problem by covering the area with some wide tape, and when it gets gunky I just peel off the tape and put down a new layer. BTW if you are considering getting a laser, the Glowforge is easy to use, but a nightmare to clean.
Can you show how you clean the Hepa filters. Thank you
Can you, please, tell me what brand of linear guide rails and carriages does your laser use? We are gonna start a small engraving business soon here in central Europe and we can't decide between Thunder laser Odin 22 and Mira 7.
That Totally Awesome is great stuff, though I think you could have diluted it quite a bit (4 part water to 1 part cleaner) and ended up with the same results.
Are you still using alcohol to clean the inside after the awesome cleaner? I was wondering if alcohol would eventually dry out the rubber seal on the lid and damage it. Thanks!
I want my TMWAL SWAG! Love ya!!
Hello and thanks for your very helpful videos. I have to tell you that after your videos i loved mira so i bought one!! But i face a problem. When i am cutting wood flames are appearing at the beam. After a search on the net i found some options saying that in this issue air pressure helps but in my nozzle i can feel no air. Is this ok for mira or i have to do something? Thanks!!!
Hi! I'm so glad you are enjoying the content on my channel. You definitely want air when cutting. Which country are you in? I would be sure to contact the company you got your machine from to have them help you troubleshoot.
@@ThatMomWithALaser Thanks for your answer. Finally and after spending some time with my mira I found that the tube that brings air to the nozzle was blocked. By the way your new video is super.
You said clean about every 6 months. Is that based on daily use?
Thats right!
Hi Mom 😊
Did you add a smoke blower underneath the table?
Just wondering, becaus this slider under your blades are open and in your other videos i realized there's not a lot smoke in comparison to mine Mira 7.
Hey! I have not. I did upgrade the fan though. Are you using the stock fan?
@@ThatMomWithALaser yes, the stock fan.
Okay, thank you.
What fan do you have?
By the way, your videos are great and so helpfull.
Thanks and a big hug from Swiss
@@simisimi1086 I have a Terrabloom. It’s good for a Mira 7 but it’s not strong enough for a Mira 9. I like it because if fits inside the machine. You can find it on my Amazon store under the “upgrade options” section. Www.thatmomwithalaser.co
@@ThatMomWithALaser ok, i have a look. Thank you 😀🙏
your husband should have edited- its a pressure washer. I wonder in a foam fun will work with the totally awesome to cover. You also have a compressor and can use a valve to pressure blow
Hi dear I’m samer i have same problem im my laser machine can you help me plasse
All the lost dots to my I’s are in there!! They are like socks in a dryer lol!
hahahahahah!
What you used to clean the bed?
Totally Awesome from the Dollar store :)
I need it in India it is possible?
What laser do you have?
I have an Aeon MIRA7. You can learn more about it here through my affiliate link. They currently have pre-order specials that are not listed on the site. aeonlaser.us/?ref=momlaser
holy crap, that's a ton of cash on Awesome for now reason, soak them in dawn and hot water, that it. Stubborn stains use denatured alcohol and awesome if needed. BTW send me the awesome and I will use it for the right reasons like cleaning and making cash on tumblers. Laser for beginners 101.... it took you a whole weekend to clean that tiny Mira.... we have 4 lasers at the shop and clean them all in under 2 hours....
Imagine being this salty.
