Check on big length cut like 24" does it accurate?
Laser Project: SWEET and smart thinking. Show the good and bad is always more helpful. Thank you very much.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting.
Where did you get your wood for conveyor projects?
If you cut the circles at the same time they will 'weld' themselves together. Just look it up on youtube. Although 3 layers would have been a bit much
Oh, interesting. I’ll check that out. Thanks.

Hi all!
Thanks!
Thanks for the video! For those that have a large, high watt Nova, what would be an example of distribution of labor if they added a Bolt to their shop? I have read where some relegated their big Novas to mainly panel cutting, especially on big sheets.
First off, thank you for the Super Thanks! Much appreciated. For those with a Nova there probably isn’t a huge need for the Bolt, but it is nice to set up for smaller projects like tumblers or fine engraving. So it would depend on what your primary projects are. Do you have the Nova? Which one?
@@VoeltnerWoodworking You are very welcome fellow Texan! I have a Nova 63-130 but would like a Bolt for more precision and speed…just looking for the right/best tools for different types of jobs.
You should try the lasermatic by Roly. Theirs comes with honeycomb bed, full enclosure with exhaust and fully assembled. You’re up and running in 10 minutes and it’s $1399. Cheaper better and has the same power. You can also get an upgrade to 30w if you want. Comes with the rotary tool as well. It basically is all in one where with xtool you gotta pay to have the extras like the enclosure and honeycomb bed. Plus Roly has it all setup out of the box. You take off one or two shipping reinforcement and then it’s good to go.

Thanks for watching!
Laser Projects! I love love love the 76 light you made. Like you I used to love seeing that logo and more when growing up. My P2 is ordered and waiting on shipping and would love to make one myself but I'm definitely not anywhere good with vector art so I may just have to live vicariously though your sign. Awesome work!
Thanks for watching! You're going to love this laser.
@@VoeltnerWoodworkingthanks. Yeah I’m very excited.
Hi Voelter - Can you please let me know the Spindle lock mechanism of Jessem lift - just need to know the mechanism behind, How it locks the spindle with just a half turn.

I like your logo at the end there what's you use to make it? I'm just starting a shopify woodworking shop and was looking for food logos. Thank you for the tip though much appreciated! 🤘🙏
Fantastic video on the S1! Thank you so much!🤓
Would love to discuss more. How could we reach out?
I have a small engraving Business, can I used laser peaked 2 for engraving gold filled, silver?
Laser Projects, Nice Work!
Laser Project. Awesome
How difficult was it to get the saw from the pallet onto the industrial mobile base? It seems to be very heavy.
It was very heavy. Requires 2+ people but I am stubborn. LOL
This short seemed like exactly the kind of video I was looking for... Then cut off after 2.5 seconds of nothing. 😡
It’s a clip from the longer video. The link should be in the video description. Apologies for the confusion. I don’t do shorts often.
how do I know what machines will work with lighburn, I have a Diode falcon 2, but want to upgrade, but cant seem to find this info
The shelves look amazing I do hate the factory design on all the gun safes. You can fit way more guns if you do open shelves like two on the sides one on the back is my plan. I am not good at wood working like you or I’d make some kind of slider for my shelves to because I like short guns but also have hunting rifles. Great video
Thank you so much!
laser project: how do i get the image for the coffee guide? I have a 180w co2 laser and i want to burn it on a wood sign for my wife's coffee bar.
I believe this design was from DesignBundles.net. Great resource!
I would love see some photos engraved on wood.. like real photos..
Stay tuned. May have something on that.
Laser Projects! I got a lot out of this video and am happy to say I know subscribe to your channel!
Thank you so much!
Thank you. That video was brilliant. Another video on the rotary tool would be awesome.
Creative space needs improving. It crashed on me a few times after spending hours making complex designs. Very frustrating. Great machines to learn on and that's about it.
Interesting. It’s not crashed on me yet. That would be frustrating though.
All in all I like what xtool do. I've been testing the d1Pro for a few months and had 0 issues with the module, stepper motors and belts it's XCS that lacks. Instead of incorporating AI first they should have advanced their basic editing features. It's the little things that add up.
Are you using the new Beta version of the software? I haven't used my D1 in about a year, so I haven't really kept up with the features for that machine.
@VoeltnerWoodworking I'm using the last version. I'm going to upgrade to the longer b1 40watt with lightburn.
Great video Matt. Hope the hurricane didn’t cause too much damage to your neck of the woods.
Thanks David. We avoided damage. Just out of power for over a week. Hope you’re well too.
What about humidity or moisture in the wood? This is a general laser question but I guess it applies here to. Would this effect the setting s or process?
Yes, moisture can affect the wood and how it reacts but fairly negligible for surface engraving for the most part.
Laser Project!! Enjoyed!
Thank you so much!
I'm in Houston too. Good video! I'm subscribed!
Awesome! Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully you're staying cool in this heat.
Dude.... GREAT video! Seriously.
Thank you so much!
can you remove the slider if it gets in the way?
You can, but once you use it you’ll want to keep it on. Lol.

Woohoo. Thank you.
Hi. Is it possible to do checkering and engravings on gun stocks which look close to handwork? Thanks
Really thinking do this for a full time job. Try it part time then hopefully take off.
Best of luck to you! It's a lot of fun. I don't do it full time right now...just a side hustle to help me support my hobby.
i just recently got a laser engraver and i was wondering what program you use to engrave your projects?
I primarily use Lightburn for most of my stuff, although the xTool software (XCS) is pretty good now if you use one of their machines.
How/what did you use to secure the inset numbers in place?
By adjusting the kerf settings you don't need to secure them in place really, but you can use acrylic glue and it works pretty well.
@@VoeltnerWoodworking ok thanks i havent really messed with acrylic yet but I have a few ideas for some projects
Thanks for the video, very informative. I was going to go with a less expensive CO2 blue and white machine, but have decided that Thunder is probably a better way to go. I wish the bed was larger, but I think it will get me started with everything I planning on doing.
Glad the video could help. It's a really well built machine with US based support.
@@VoeltnerWoodworking My Bolt arrived this week and our adventure has officially begun!
Woohoo. Congrats!
It's a nice laser if you're looking into working with thin wood/acrylic or just engraving. Trying to cut 1/4" or 3/8" will take multiple cuts / longer times. The more powerful Bolt's are way overpriced compared to higher powered CO2 Tube lasers.
Lens choice is important here, too. You can opt for a 4" lens to cut thicker materials.
You are the most underrated channel in the scope of laser engraving.
Wow. Thank you so much! Yeah, YT hates me. LOL
Is this a laser made in the US? And are you happy with the customer service? Thanks
This (and most) laser is not made in the US, but it’s been a great machine. I’ve only needed tech support one time and it was fairly easy.
For the leds to reflect the light proportionately across the circle, your frame thickness need to be at least 1inch. Instead of cutting the circles and gluing them you could bend a black/white strip of 1 inch in round shape.
On the Thunder Bolt laser how large of a wood cereal bowl can be engraved on its side using the ROKU Twister tray and a PiBurn Grip chuck rotary? Can the rotary be placed directly on the crumb tray to gain Z depth without the ROKO, or can the crumb tray be removed and the rotary put right on the surface below the crumb tray rail? I’m trying to figure out what the maximum Z depth is that I can get using a rotary. I don’t want to spend almost twice the money on the Bolt Pro 22 with its deeper Z depth.
The issue is focus of the laser. If you use the crumb tray you will have to raise the piece and use manual focus which could work, it's just not as precise.
@@VoeltnerWoodworking Thanks. I didn’t consider that without the Z motor in play I would need to do a manual focus operation and shim the PiBurn upward as needed. If that’s possible I’d like to know what the measured depth is from the surface below the crumb tray up to the lasers focus plunger.
