    Can you give some tips on Hydro Flask brand tumblers? I’m struggling with them. I’m not sure if it’s just a very thick powder coat or what. I have a 30w fiber. I am a Master Academy member also! I love it!

      First of all thank you so much for supporting the channel. Means the world to us.
      Second I would recommend this video: ruclips.net/video/mvRCOUP0pOI/видео.html
      It's filmed in ezcad but all of the setup, settings and principles remain the same. We do use Yeti in this episode, not Hydroflask, but we do Red tumblers which are some of the most resistent to IR lasers. I think some of the guidelines and strategies in this video could really help you out with your experimenting.

    • @paulriley5940

      Hydro flask powder it twice as thick as more other tumblers.

    Is there a way to only use cylinder correction for one object or group, and use rotary for another ? Say i want to engrave a logo with cyl corr, and test to wrap around the cylinder with rotary?

  • @kennethfails8041
    @kennethfails8041 2 года назад +1

    Thank you for work. I used my rotary in ezcad to mark business cards. Made a platform and turned the rotary 90 degrees so the card holder would just spin as each card is marked, then remove and replace while another is being marked. In lightburn I am unable to figure out how to do that. Any suggestions?

    • @LaserEverything
      @LaserEverything  2 года назад +3

  • @icmpeko
    @icmpeko Год назад +1

    Is there such a thing as cylinder correction in BOTH direction - e.g. DOME correction (maybe for a stone)? Truth be told, I've been doing this in EZ CAD for the direction that has the most curve on the stone, yet I think it'd look a lot better if I can do it as a dome (one direction THEN the other looks bad)🤔

    • @LaserEverything
      @LaserEverything  Год назад

      This would be super useful but as of writing I don't believe anything like that currently exists. Would be a good suggestions to the lightburn team haha.

    • @AdamHaile
      @AdamHaile 2 года назад

      Yes, in EZCad it's called ProjectMark. Though it's not available for "Lite" boards I believe. For LightBurn, however, it's available for all galvos.

    • @LaserEverything
      @LaserEverything  2 года назад

      Some copies of Ezcad2 do have a project mark plugin which we have a video on called project Mark essentials. It's not available in easy kid three and only some ez2 copies have it.

  • @ryankawash2847
    @ryankawash2847 Год назад +1

    When you input the focal distance, is it asking for your machines in focus length? Or is it asking what you are actually setting the focal distance to? I am using a 210mm lens so on the rotary I find that defocusing 8mm up is best. My in focus length is 239mm, would i input that into the cylinder settings or would i put in 247mm? Thanks!

    • @LaserEverything
      @LaserEverything  Год назад +1

      I put the length of my focal stick, so from the bottom of the lens to the focusing point on the material. In my experience I've found it's the least important factor of all of these variables and doesn't need to be entirely precise.

      Alcohol is just 99% alcohol from the store, the Zep is a commercial degreaser available at grocery and hardware stores - it's for cleaning and shining up stainless steel.

    Silly question, my output sublayer is deselected and it wont allow me to add sub layers. I assume if I could select output sublayers the + and - would appear to add sublayers. Is that a setting i have to turn on? Thanks

    • @LaserEverything
      @LaserEverything  11 месяцев назад +1

      The output sublayers slider will be grayed out unless you have additional sublayers already added beyond the initial layer. At the top right, the + and - button below the name field (when you're in the expanded cut/layer details window, double click on the layer), that + button will add a sublayer, and the output sublayer slider will let you pick the ones that output on that layer. Sorry, hard to explain in text lol

      Thank you for the reply! I really appreciate all your doing with educating the fiber laser work. Someone on Facebook suggested that it has to be a vector image for that sub layer option to be available and then the plus and minus will appear. I was using a .png - I will try your suggestion this evening. Thanks again!
