I have been playing around on the laser for about a year and this is the very best tip I have ever watched on RUclips. Thank you so much. This was one learning experience!
I'm new to lasers, this is an absolute godsend I want to incorporate laser & CNC work on project pieces, alignment has always been my stumbling block. Thank you
hi from UK - am new to laser stuff ( 1 week in) and have watched several video;s on Absolutes etc and setting up jobs on the laser, and trying to make sense of machine origins vs Job origins etc, and they left as many questions as answers, but your video id by far the best, clearest and most useful on U Tube on this subject. It is at the pace, clear and uses a live example of adding test to an existing job, which had to be perfect, so well done and thanks - I go into the weekend a happier and wiser person Rgds Geoff
Thank you! Brand new to this and I have watched video after video about "framing" and most of them left me more confused. Your step by step instructions are a real game changer for me.
Thank you, I had a job on a rotary that I needed to make darker, the mug was displaced, I suppose your tip and this tool would work to re-align and reprint over the previous lighter print.
I am new to using Laser engraving and lightburn. I absolutely love the way you explain everything. I do have a question though. I have everything set up correctly...so I think, but when I press the start button to create my project nothing comes out on my wood. What am I doing wrong?
with out knowing your setting and type of laser you have it’s tough to help you. most laser have a minimum threshold meaning any power setting below that threshold the laser will not fire. most co2 lasers minx are between 8-12% above that you should see something
Would this method work if I clicked around a circle? I am putting sprial text on a Dollar Tree glass plate and having hard time centering text on plate. Actually, I am off to Rochester Makerspace to giving it a try. Love Love Love
North Texas here, I think I'm gonna start some content soon on using All inches for us true americans. I'm a CNC machinist daily but have hobby CNC machines, all in inches none of that mm/s or mm/m for me. I'll do a chart too those that don't seem to know simple math.
You asked for video content suggestions, Could you make a video on Splitting a design in half and using the print and cut feature to cut the design on one board using the pass through. I have a thunder 24 and need to cut some circles 20 inches round
if you have a diode laser you will have to turn that feature on in lightburn under the gear icon. if you have a co2 laser you would use the pulse button on the controller. thanks for watching
Would you discuss the black laser tube and it’s lenses? Thunder ships with blue but I notice you use a different setup. Is this setup better. Do you get better cuts? Thanks.
that is an 1.5” lens from American photonics it has a smaller beam spot and is my goto lens for engraving and cutting thin materials. Thunder requires a 21mm tube diameter. they have a 4” that works great as well. these lens’s are very affordable.
I like your videos. They are easy to understand the way you teach. Could you do a video on how to read a test card. We are told to make the test cards on pure materials but I don’t see where it explains the best way to choose your settings from looking at the test card for cut and the one for engrave.
Hello, I'm new to laser engraving and I subscribed to your channel. I'm getting educated from your videos. How do you move your laser freely as you did in this video? Thank you
What scrolling button were you pushing to have the laser run along the bottom of the lettering? it looked like it was stopping at all the points. was it just the arrow keys in the "move" tab?
I'm having troubles with my laser going to another position on my laser bed and not to where I have my jig set up with the cross hairs. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I’ve got a camera on my laser. This method is just as fast and you don’t have to wonder if it’s off just a bit. The cameras are ok but if you know your alway around lightburn this is just as fast.. The cameras will get you in the ball park but I’ve learned over the last 2 years of having one that they go out of calibration pretty easily. You spend more time wondering why isn’t it dead on than just getting the work done!
Second question, should we only use Absolute Coordinates for setting the laser where we want it? I know this is a dumb question but can you go over current position and user origin? Thank you!!!!
Ok. So that's the rub. WHERE do you place the physical product??? I don't quite follow. Can you just place it "anywhere" on the table? I'm also doing a circular piece of material.
Once you move the laser pointer to the selected location you move your product to the location not the other way around. This way is much faster in most circumstances.
@@computercreationz first, love your vids! I think what I failed to explain properly is that I have multiple EXISTING cut-out pieces . Like the blanks you buy at Amazon, craft stores, whatever... I ended up making a jig. So what I did was take a large piece of quality cardboard (secure it down) , did the layout in the array, and cut out those circles first. Then I can just plop the blanks in those holes, and do the cut or etch that way. Thank you!
Very informative. Just wondering what speed and power you were using? If you have a video on the height to set the laser head could you please link it. Thanks, Daryl
400/mms 25% power on my Thunder Nova 35-100 watt. I always engrave 1-2 mm out of focus. this 4” lens has a focus of 10mm but I needed to miss the wood on the right so I was 3 mm out of focus. works fine.
Could you do a tutorial on how to replicate projects using a jig. I purchased a jig and e-file on Etsy and the cards doin't all print to the center of the card in lightburn. In fact the patches are all was different. The builder was suggesting many things. Using absolute coordinates to off set the laser to the cross hairs. HELP please. I'm a noob
@@computercreationz That’s awesome. I think we have the same laser, Thunder Nova 35 100w? I need a high res lens but I’m not thrilled about paying $400. Do you have any suggestions? Oh I have the standard and the 4” Thunder lenses!
I wouldn’t get it, I had one and because ifs focus is the thickness of a quarter too much stuff builds up. Buy an 1.5” lens from American photonics 21mm tube. It will provide grest engraving results and it’s very reasonable @@OldVetCreations
Robert first of all thank you for all your knowledge that you share with us! Second I am so happy to watch your videos because you have the exact Thunder Laser that I have! Lastly why does your 4” lens look different than the one I have from Thunder?
I am trying to make gift cards for my store, and I am running into a problem. I am using the aluminum business cards. I would like to lay out a 3 card x 3card array of them. My problem is I don't know how to match up the laser and the 54mm x 86mm materials. Please any help would be great.
Two things- I noticed that your text looked to be a different height. Is there a job sheet like in vectric products? Also wanted to add a little- I use a similar process when picture engraving on irregular shaped slabs and slices. I use a known dimensioned vector box so that I can position the picture . I make the engrave larger than the piece so that there is no unengraved area. I use a sheet of 3mm underneath, drive to the corners of the vector box, and measure for positioning. Great video, thanks.
Hey I am new to your channel. I was hoping you could go in depth with the Lightburn software and how to use the program. Plus I would love to learn how to find the best cutting setting on several different types of material. Not sure if you have made videos on this yet. You do a fabulous job explaining things. I can't wait to see more content.
Paris, you'll find the settings for cuts/engraving are different for each machine, even for the exact same material. Your best bet for this is something I have done. Each time you get a new piece of material, do a few test cuts on it and some test engravings. Then write on the material what your setting where at each location. You'll come to learn yourself overtime some rough estimates for new material, but you'll always have to test anything new.
Absolute Coordinates one of three “start from” ways the origin is used in lightburn. User origin is one of the other popular start from setting in lightburn
I have 51/130. Do you mind to share the perfect upgrade tools and the set up to my laser? I still masking my material everytime i engraved because its charred. Holiday rush is over and i really want to maximize my machine and re-set up. Im not able to scoring. It scored to the back side of the material even though i only put power 1 and speed 300++ I really need help.
I have never masked since I started with my 51/130. I hired Robert (creator of this video) to teach me my new laser about 10 months ago. The way he explains things and his patience are priceless to me. I was going to have a paperweight had I not found Robert. ha ha.
Great video. You asked for video content suggestions, so here goes. Now that you are getting into sublimation, maybe a video on sublimating onto the WHITEBOARD from Lowe's and then laser cutting around the image (or vice-versa)? I have not sublimated onto the white BOARD yet, but have read the white finish will take sublimation, and I think that would give better results than hand painting or staining.
thank you for your suggestions, I’ve tried the white board from the big box store and it didn’t produce the quality I was hoping for. allot cheaper than unisub and board but not near as good of results. give some unisub hardboard a try. thank you for you suggestion.
@@computercreationz The white board is different from HD and Lowes, which one did you try that did not give good results? I will also try unisub hardboard, thanks
So just out of curiosity, instead of using the laser positioning tool and manually doing all of the alignment by hand, why not use the print and cut feature instead? Kind of the same principle, but Lightburn does all of the alignment for you instead. Otherwise, useful info on a rarely talked about tool.
@@computercreationz thx so much. Is it original equipment or did you add? If you added, how are you dealing with offset? I'm adding crosshair laser to my diode but offsetting in Lightburn.
I like you're Videos Thank you for your work New Content? I want to spit a Logo in 3x3 titles To burn it from the Backside on Mirror Titles How can I do this in Lightburn Sorry for my English Heiko from Hamburg/Germany
There should be 3 options… absolute coordinates, user origin and Current Position… perfect example when your trying to do a serving try with handles but your laser head would hit the tray handles… when using current position the laser doesn’t home to the corner… it will stay in your design box
Have you experimented with the camera function? At least 2 of your vids cover positioning, without covering the excellent camera functions. Example: This is really interesting: ruclips.net/video/Z4TaZUkvDbM/видео.html 5 min into this one you can see how accurate the positioning procedure gets: ruclips.net/video/Y-Zv--T4bSI/видео.html
in use the camera about 10% of the time. it works great for odd shaped objects. With constant movement of the lid you do have to tweak the settings and understand it will get you very close but not dead on. I love it when I need it. but always use the frame feature to ensure accuracy
I have been playing around on the laser for about a year and this is the very best tip I have ever watched on RUclips. Thank you so much. This was one learning experience!
You're very welcome!

Thank you, I had a job on a rotary that I needed to make darker, the mug was displaced, I suppose your tip and this tool would work to re-align and reprint over the previous lighter print.
it would be very tricky on a rotary because of the steps per rotation involved that you have no control over.
This is really going to be helpful. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Glad it was helpful!
This is really a great video. Why is your locator not “red” when you were setting up?
Thanks for your comment, it’s never been red! is yours red and do,you have a co2 laser?
Thanks there is always something to learn or relearn. I appreciate you brother.

Hi and thanks for this outstanding video! How to fire the laser light (to check the position on the wood) from the LightBurn control software ?
if you have a diode laser you will have to turn that feature on in lightburn under the gear icon. if you have a co2 laser you would use the pulse button on the controller. thanks for watching
Where did those cool plastic tabs (or pins) come from?
On Etsy search up Thunder laser honeycomb pins

Lightburn has a finding the center tool built in. Look up center finder tool in lightburn
How do you do? Question, where did you get the hold down pins, I work with ticker materials, and your pins look ideal, thanks?!
I buy all my honeycomb pins off of Etsy. Just search for honeycomb pins( by laser manufacturer )

Glad to hear it! Thank you for the comments
Great. You should also consider the overrun the laser does if set to that. In your case it worked but was closer than when you checked.
good point for sure,
Thank you very much Robert.Helpful video for us.
You are very welcome, thank you for your comments!
Hello, I'm new to laser engraving and I subscribed to your channel. I'm getting educated from your videos. How do you move your laser freely as you did in this video? Thank you
All the movements on
My co2 laser are done by my controller on the laser. If you have a diode you will use the move tab in Lightburn
Great tutorial. What are the hold downs you are using to stabilize your piece? I need some!
I got the on Etsy, just search thunder laser honeycomb pins
Do you have a video on homing the laser ?
Thank you
usually homing your laser co2 related will do that automatically via the controller.
What scrolling button were you pushing to have the laser run along the bottom of the lettering? it looked like it was stopping at all the points. was it just the arrow keys in the "move" tab?
You could do it there or I was doing it on the controller on the laser
I'm having troubles with my laser going to another position on my laser bed and not to where I have my jig set up with the cross hairs. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Are you selecting the icons then clicking where you want your laser head to go in lightburn?
Wouldn't the camera take the guesswork out of it? Excellent video to know how to do it manually though. Granted I'm a total newbie.
I’ve got a camera on my laser. This method is just as fast and you don’t have to wonder if it’s off just a bit. The cameras are ok but if you know your alway around lightburn this is just as fast..

Than you for your comments, the cut shapes feature would be perfect for what you want to do. lightburn has a great video on that feature.
You’re supposed to switch to current position from absolute coordinates when using that option
This feature does not work in user origin on my Lightburn!
There should be 3 options… absolute coordinates, user origin and Current Position… perfect example when your trying to do a serving try with handles but your laser head would hit the tray handles… when using current position the laser doesn’t home to the corner… it will stay in your design box
Love your videos btw
