    DUDE, I LOVE YOU! It's 3 months i'm engraving with a 20W laser that barely does better than my previous 5W... and you know why? It was working at 3.9W.... Yesterday thanks to you i've unleashed all the 20W and filled the room with smoke...

      @@mightydtwentycent5921 ehhh it passed too much time and not I do not remember the correct setting I had, but since max power was set on a scale from 1 to 255, instead 1 to 1000, setting output to 80% of already limited outpuit lead up to a 3.9 teorical output. but I didn't use any power meter, they cost too much. What can I say, is that after i followed this instruction, I've been able to cut trough 1.5CM wood.

    I have to say that this method does not apply to all diode lasers. I have a Artur 20W laser and it cuts perfectly through 1/4" plywood at an S Value Max of 1000. So I cannot imagine setting it to 10000. But common sense tells me do not mess with good enough. I did like your video as you were informative, thank you.

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman

  • @cheekyoscar1353
    @cheekyoscar1353 9 месяцев назад +2

    absolutely true . The values have to be the same , it doesn't matter what the number is as long as they are the same on both screens
    ..
    * when you have got this setting correct then turn the "running laser "setting down if you feel your laser is up too high you do not necessarily need to cut at 100% in a lot of cases. But at least you know you can if you want to . good video 👍👍👍👍

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  10 месяцев назад +1

      So if both your setting match up you should be good. By adding a 0 to both… it won’t do anything “extra”. It doesn’t change the actual power of the laser. It only makes sure your machine is using its full potential which in your case is 5.5w. Hope that helped a little more and thanks for watching!!!

    Hi buddy, first of all thank you for the video, it sped up my cutting time which was quite slow but I'm wondering one thing, will this shorten the my laser life? will it break? or is this really the setting that it should have because when I connect my laser to my PC it automatic finds it and when it does it doesn't automatically load these settings to it?

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman

    Hello there, need advice, which better, that is speed 150 1time cutting, or make it 800speed, 5 time repeat?? (100% power)
    i just think, make it more speed but repeat, to safe the dioda laser machine (not sure that is right or not LOL)

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  22 часа назад

      Nope! More power faster. Don’t be fooled by people saying 100% power is bad. They don’t know what they’re talking about. Lasers were meant to be used. Higher power and less passes. You’ll have less charring too! If you’re not sure …. Make a circle or box and on a section of the wood that’s waste…. Set to 8-9 passes and count how many it takes it to drop. This is how many passes you’ll need for the project and add 1 for good measure. All wood is different so hopefully this helps some!

      If it’s 220 your definitely going to need to install a 220 outlet with plug to match. I would consult with an electrician before you make any moves.

Worst case make sure you unlock the dimensions and hand type the exact same measurements you need in both Width and Height then Lock it again! Thanks for Watching!!!

      1,000/1,000 is fine. If both are the same you’ll be running at true 100% power. 10,000/10,000 is the same too. It’s not telling to pump more power only a % of 100% power.

      100% correct. I didn’t mention that in the video but I used it for the teaching purposes of the video. Much easier to get across the point with 100% rather than 87.5%. 😂. Thanks for watching!

      So does running it for several hours to make the same cuts that would take 20 mino.
      I have a Laser Tree K 30 and would like to get at least 50-70% of its capable power output and cut materials in a reasonable amount of time. I spent all night trying to cut letters out for a sign and it wasn't pretty. Not to mention all the extra carbon I had to sand off the first layers and re cut ones that broke while doing so.
      I'm not an angry person but if I hadn't came across this information. I might have ended up on a primetime news segment about people who feel unhinged rage around technology
