One of my buddy’s fiber lasers has this feature where it does micro engravings basically and it’s somehow like so precise it can make the color of the metal refract light different so he can use the laser to make a part of metal red or blue depending on what he wants I don’t know if that would work in yours but it’s a pretty cool process
Your right fiber lasers can do that but only on stainless steel metal. I have tried metal with the Co2 laser and without a marking spray it really doesn’t do much. I’ll have to try the powder coat on the fiber laser though!
I initially ran a normal engrave and my normal settings. Then I added the powder coat and placed it back in the jig so it was at the same spot for the initial engraving. I then dropped my powder but left my speed the same and re ran the engrave with the powder to melt the coating I the wood. I repeated this step for the blue and walla! Hope that helps a little more
@@ashandemberwoodshop I've watched every single laser video I could find, and it definitely works well, but I don't remember that person's situation. It was engraved wood with the same kind of "powder paint" which melts/cures whatever through a heat gun on the lowest setting at a distance using back and forth motion coming ever so nearer the surface, keeping the nozzle at 90deg.
If you’re referring to the lines in the red and blue that’s because it’s melting the powder and creating a grain like texture when it adheres to the material. The more I go over it the smoother it gets
Dude that’s actually awesome. Simple enameling basically. Could do insane things for jewelry automation at home
I was amazed how simple
It actually was. I am going to experiment on metal next and see how it does but yes your right so many possibilities
Would it work with glass dust that's used in enameling copper jewelry ?
@@1414141x I’m not sure, it’s worth giving it a try though!
The jewelry is a great idea actually
That’s cool af 👀
I was shocked it worked so well
Awesome! Always keep looking for new ideas and uses! Im always excited to find a new way of doing things and all the possible projects!
I am the same way, love trying to find new things! Thank you!
How did you get the excess red and blue to go away… I did this it came out great but I have a blue tint on the wood now!
When I did red I would then remove all the extra and the. I would add blue and then remove the blue extra and it didn’t mix together

does your buddy make special metal pieces for people and sell them, I have been trying to find someone to make a special necklace for my husband.
@@SM-us4hr no i don't think so its part of his work and has just shown me videos and samples of what he's made sorry
Great Idea!
Thank you sir!
Super cool
Thank you
Great trick!
Thank you! Couldn’t believe it
That's nice
Thank you!
That looks super cool
Thanks it’s turned out awesome!
Very clever
Thank you I was amazed it worked
Damn that’s amazing man. This would be an awesome going away plaque addition for military folks. You could do the unit insignia.
Thank you! And yeah there are some fun and cool ideas to utilize it with! Looking forward to playing around with it more
This is awesome 😎
Wow, no way. That has so many possible uses
I am loving it. And the more times you add powder and go over it the thicker and smoother it gets!
I was the 1,000th like! 😄👍🏻🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Heck yeah!! Thanks for the support 🔥🔥🎉
wow
It blew me away as well!
Damn, very nice.
Thank you!
Million dollar idea! Thanks for sharing.. Hope a large company doesn't patent it out from under you..
Thank you and you’re welcome!
That's badd ass!
Yeah it is. I love it
Nice! Can I do this with metal or aluminum?
I tried with metal and aluminum and it did not adhere unfortunately
@@ashandemberwoodshop thank you anyhow
What kind of laser are you using?
I’m using an OMTech 100w CO2 laser
what settings are you using to melt the powder paint...what laser power do you have?
@@3dmania11 I have a 100w OMTech co2 laser and my speed was 250 and the power was 14%. Turn the air off though or it blows the powder everywhere ha
Dude that looks very dope 👊🏼👊🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. Try like a make up brush so you don’t have to waste your powders just a idea
Thank you very much and I’ll give that a shot! Thanks for the tip!
@@ashandemberwoodshop no problem and remember keep crafting keep inspiring
Nooice
Thank you!
Is there another way to do this without putting it into a laser machine please? I have engraved rings with glow powder but it’s started to wear off😂
I don’t know any other way besides baking it in an oven
Small powder coated parts are often cured in a toaster oven. Preferably one used only for that purpose.
You can use a heat gun.
Do you sell these?
Yeah I do. Shoot me a message. My email is ashandemberwoodshop@gmail.com
Mine falls out when blowing it off or sanding
What are your settings and have you tried to run it twice to really set it?
Whoah, that's awesome! What kind of powder do you use?
Right! So cool! I used prismatic powders. Here is what I used amzn.to/3LUUrRd
@@ashandemberwoodshop Thanks!

Ask for fig bark ink at the store.
I have never heard of fig bark ink. Does it do something similar
That was ALL Greek to me.

Heat gun
@@GASNICABRUNATNA yes that may work but I painted the white and it started to bubble the paint

What flag is that?
It’s an American Flag. Made out of Baltic birch wood and the color is powder coat lasered in
Fine, just don't do any of that fascist blue line shit.
For a laser, it sure doesn't make very straight lines. .
