      @@KittenRaee They are no more hazardous than many tools found in most shops. It's all about responsibility. Arc welders can give 2nd-3rd degree sunburn in seconds, but it's not an issue as long as personal safety precautions are taken, i.e. don't look at the light without the proper glasses. The laser is no different. Not having an enclosure included means being able to make one that fits your workspace instead of being constrained to what is provided.

    Thoughts:
    -Laser safety talk was good!
    -The laser leaves the gantry up front which seems annoying, park it at the back when the user is done (easy software fix).
    -Looks like there is a lot of charring, maybe a settings issue, or ventilation? Can probably clean with surface sanding, but not the cleanest results.
    -Also, I'd watch a video about making an enclosure like that. Looked very nice!

    • @cjshearwood
      @cjshearwood Před rokem +3

      To eliminate surface char you really need both strong extraction and a powerful air assist blowing air on the lasing site, neither of which this machine comes with. Material choice also matters, and many plywoods use glues and resins more likely to char, laser-safe plywoods are less likely to char badly. It is important to only use laser-safe plywood when cutting, otherwise it might contain PVC based glues.

    • @Craftlngo
      @Craftlngo Před rokem

      You can apply a sheet of paper on the top of the wood to avoid the charring

  • @mattyeates771
    @mattyeates771 Před rokem +8

    To get less charring I would recommend using a thin layer of masking tape over the workpiece. The residue will build up on the tape instead of the wood. Then the tape can be peeled off to leave sharper lines.

    • @DanteYewToob
      @DanteYewToob Před rokem +3

      Do you need to adjust power to compensate for the tape at all?
      Also, does color matter? Like, does dark blue masking tape require less power to burn than white masking tape?
      I’ve been considering buying a laser for a while but I have lung cancer and I’ve been put off by the fumes.. I’m considering the Gwike Cloud setup since it has air filters included.

    if you consider how much work and money is needed to build a sufficient enclosure with extraction, the price of the "naked" CNC lasers isn't as inexpensive as intended. You can buy completely encapsulated CNC-Laser with fume extraction for the money. But I guess all producers of those naked lasers imply that their customers won't mind if they buy an insecure product.

      Certain projects look better in wood with an engraver, so that makes an easy choice.
      But also it's a lot faster to cut a large shape out of 3mm wood than to print a large 3mm-thick shape with plastic.
      If I were designing this project, I probably would have used wood for the sides and bottom like this, but designed the bearing-holders with plastic, and maybe even connected the wood to each other with plastic, and small bolts instead of the large through-bolts he used here.

      Never because the smell really bad and you get very much mixed results on a lot of stuff. Like you can't just go to the hardware store and buy a sheet of wood that you can cut without issues. Now I used my to cut thin cardboard for packaging and that worked pretty fine, although I had to clean them all because it smelled very bad.

      @AlbertoNencioni Před rokem +1

      I have a 10watt diode laser machine (not Creality, but it is not that different) but for for cutting any wood over 1mm I use a scrollsaw. Cleaner, quicker, safer. Cutting this spool holder would take two minutes with a 100€ scrollsaw, and using a much stronger plywood. No fumes, no fire danger. By the way, there is no indication of what kind of surface is under the machine: when the laser beam cuts TROUGH there is nothing to prevent it setting the table top on fire.

      And the people who don't care about these things often learn about them the hard way.
