      @@BuildDadBuild I'm new to the laser world, just bought my first, one and only so far, laserpecker2 last week. My comment wasn't meant to sound "know it all" but I see those laser sprays are expensive and as for the moly spray, I'm not familiar with it. Does spray paint work? Sorry for the newb question as maybe this is a known to experienced laser jockeys.

    Could you do a video on cutting Kaizen foam with the X1. Not much out there on this topic, but would be incredibly useful for making custom Pelican cases / tool organization. Thanks. Love the channel!

      I think you'd run into a thickness issue. You'd only be able to get about 10mm before the laser focus would be off...

    Don't forget to factor in the sales taxes that you paid, it is part of your overhead/costs. And your tests are business losses, so they're tax deductible.

    sometimes when I do insulated water bottles, the laser etched part doesn't come out silver. The exact settings on one bottle may result in nice results and other times it looks like there still a tiny bit of paint left. Any advice? I'm at 100% at 2.75 in/sec at 260 lines/in on a 10 W diode.

    • @BuildDadBuild
      @BuildDadBuild  2 года назад +1

      It might just be the color of the paint. They all react differently. And when you get closer to a blue color you'll notice discrepancies due to the color of the beam of the laser.
