Happy Holidays, thanks for a great year! We've done everything from tool reviews, go kart builds, ton of welding and finished off with some engraving. What do you want to see more of?
This is content made by a guy who has endured way too many drug out, long-winded tutorial videos and decided to be the change he wants to see. Good work, man.
Hello! this is the best tutorial ever. thank you to share! i've a 20W module, do yo have any advice for that? in this tutorial, did you set any material or just the 'user defined material' option? thank you in advance
I tried this on my S1 40w and the laser passed right through the acrylic and engraved the black paper underneath. not a mark on the acrylic lol. it was thin acrylic... not sure if that matters but it did absolutely nothing haha
I’ve got a question. Have you tried cutting clear acrylic with your laser? I’ve seen many people saying you can’t but I was curious if that was a myth or not? I do some template routing with my woodworking business so the idea of being able to make templates in 1/4” acrylic would be amazing. Thank you in advance!
Thank you very much after so much searching for what I wanted to know! Do you think that someone starting from scratch is better to opt for an engraver with an integrated camera to facilitate niclavoric series? Type M1 or P2...thanks for your time to answer me!
Not sure what a niclavoric series is but I would say if you plan to do multiple things at once then yes the camera would be beneficial and save time. If just doing larger or one or two items at a time then the S1 is great.
Bad @$$ video thank you I just got my S1 40w and your video inspired me to do this kinds of jobs, with you vast experience what works better Engrave or marking (not sure if that’s the correct name) the acrylic? Thanks and keep up the good work

So nice to watch a video where somebody just gives you the info and doesn't ramble on and constantly repeat themselves. Well done.
What about cutting through to cut shapes etc. how would you do that without burning/causing it to bubble
You have to have a CO2 laser to be able to cut through clear acrylic, diode lasers don't "cut" it. Haha! They do cut through colored acrylic.

Good work, man.
Thanks, appreciate it!
This was very helpful!
Gracias por compartir su experiencia, tengo una D1 10 watts no pro y su video me ayudó mucho a grabar acrílico. Excelente video, lo recomiendo. 😊
De Nada!
@@-DIYPRO- hola que settings usaste para el acrilico?
Thanks!
Thank you! Any idea where to get the acrylic sticky backing that you mentioned?

Thank you so much for this video! Is there a reason to put a piece of plywood under the cardstock? Could it sit on the baseplate instead?
Yes it can but I like the plywood because sometimes it will be a little hot and bleed through the paper and kinda makes a mess on the plywood.
I tried this on my S1 40w and the laser passed right through the acrylic and engraved the black paper underneath. not a mark on the acrylic lol. it was thin acrylic... not sure if that matters but it did absolutely nothing haha
Does it engrave on the bottom by the black paperboard or on the top? Do you have to mirror your text? Thank you
Hello,can you tolde me exactly what is the paper that you use it please?
Thank you
Any idea where to get the sticky paper to put on the acrylic after drying?
I usually do this on my CNC with a diamond Drag bit then I can also cut it out Can we use the S1 to cut away the Cast acrylic but you don’t need
Right on with the diamond bit. The S1 being a diode laser can cut dark color acrylic but not clear.
Thank you

Yes but NOT with this laser. You need a CO2 laser to cut acrylic. Here is Xtools CO2 laser: amzn.to/4bt9hsd
Would this work on a xtool d1 pro 5w? And if so what settings would you recommend?

Thanks for your kind reply
Thanks for showing this.
I’m still trying the wood, i hope to try clear later. did you also cut this on the S1 ?

the goat!!!
Hello, You think the 20W may do this? Or is it exclussive to the 40W
He uses 15 percent so im guessing the 20 watt at 30 percent would get the same results
@@Swiftstyle Thanks I will try that...
@@cubansli3099 wondering if you tried with the 20w? Did it work?
@@lisafarris9832 No, I purchased a K40 CO2 Laser to do this work. Had to many issue with the scratching and paper burning on the plex.
@@lisafarris9832 I used a 10w 25/235 and it came out pretty good.
Unfortunately I forgot of I use black marker or just card paper lol
HI THANK YOU. WHAT KIND OF STICKY PAPER
WHY ARE YOU YELLING
500 mm per second or per minute?
500mm/second. Keep in mind that is max speed and most engraving jobs need to be done slower.
@@-DIYPRO- wow ok. This is to keep temperature down?
@@sblack48 Im guessing so, otherwise itl go through I think
HOLA ME GUSTARIA SABER COMO SE LLAMA EL PAPLE QUE PONE DEBAJO DEL ACRILICO GRACIAS
Es cartulina
@@dismeygonzalez muchas gracias

To condescending. (That means talking down to people)
Doing so would not help my channel so how can I improve?
