Been searching review after review to see if this laser would work for cosplay, FINALLY you said exactly what I needed "this can also cut through 11mm foam floor tile". PERFECT. You win youtube for today and I definitely need this laser, especially for the price. Maybe I'll have less issues than with my 3D printer. Creating the enclosure is going to be harder than using the laser I think.
I'm glad you found this helpful! Originally when i tried cutting through the foam it took about 10 passes! However I recently added a 3d printed air assist to it and it now cuts cleanly through it 4 passes! I would definitely suggest making an enclosure with good fume extraction too.
@@beckys4940 I ended up getting this and it works great for cutting foam pieces while I work on other parts of the costume. I actually am fairly happy with my purchase. Getting it set up correctly is a pain and varies from software to software. Once you get things dialed in... you really can shoot productivity up. Barging pieces together while the next few pieces are being cut. Definitely stick a fan near it to blow fumes away and DEFINITELY make sure everyone in the room has eye protection. I legit put a cardboard box around mine with hole for the fan until I can build a real enclosure.
Isaac, good video. I just purchased the same laser to mount on my CNC. Is feed rate and multiple passes the only burn depth control you have or can you vary the intensity of the laser? Thanks, Isaac H
How well does this machine engrave wood?? What depth and clarity? I'm looking to purchase one for putting logos on chopping boards and bowls I make. What does the engraving look like after it's wiped over??
Excellent video Isaac! Great craftsmanship and lots of ideas for how to build a nice setup. Thank you! I didn't see it (but perhaps I missed it), but have you done any PCB work with your setup? One piece of feedback, on laptop speakers, you're voice is a bit unintelligble. The issue sounds like the music is a bit louder than it should be, but also your voice may benefit from a little EQ to pull out some of the low frequency content. Thanks again, and good luck with your setup!
No, I haven't done anything with PCBs yet… If you're interested that you might find these videos by Marco Reps useful: czcams.com/video/1hFNj86L7sk/video.html czcams.com/video/ZzO9skEYqwY/video.html czcams.com/video/gm5P74vcB84/video.html Thanks for the feedback, I'm going to buy a decent quality mic soon and put more effort into editing.
A 10k resistor between + and - on the TTL control signal line should sort out the initial laser power-on issue. At least, it does when using a Ramps board and Marlin. (This will also depend which laser control board you have and if you're using TTL)
Thanks! I did actually add a pull-down resistor to the laser module to fix the issue a while ago but haven't got around to making another video about it yet...
Great video Isaac. Will this laser cut thin woods up to around 1/8" thick or 3 to 4 mm? Also have you tried any other program software to run the machine?
Thank you! I don't think it would be practical to cut 1/8" woods with it unfortunately. I have seen a few videos of people cutting 3mm balsa wood but I think any harder woods would require too many passes to be practical. I haven't tried any other software yet but it's on my to do list.
Sorry for the delay! I bought it on ebay a few years ago. This was the listing on my purchase history: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Amber-Orange-Transparent-Colour-Perspex-Acrylic-Sheet-Plastic-Panel-Cut-to-Size/162496190275?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
That's really nice. I'm looking into building my own but was wondering i see some etching an edge lit glass or polycorbonat. but what is theblack stuff on it while burning?
Yeah I do want to at some point but I just haven't really had the need to yet so am putting it off. I have heard that LaserWeb is a good option but I really need to research them first.
Hey Isaac, it would be super helpful if you included the settings you used on each material to help us with a starting point. :) Thanks and great video.
Unfortunately I don't have a good record of the settings because I have been making modifications to the laser and software so the settings keep changing.
Hi, great video. Planning och buying the same machine but wondering if the 5000 mw is worth the extra cash? I thought 2500 mw would not cut through materials. Which one would you recommend?
Thanks! I haven't had much experience with any other laser but from what I know 5000mW isn't really able to do much more than the 2500mW. It will be able to engrave and cut slightly faster and deeper but not by much. When I bought mine it was about £150 and the 5000mW was around £300 so really didn't seem worth the extra cost for so little benefit. I wouldn't really advice this machine for cutting unless it is cardboard or a thin material less than 2-3mm even then it takes several passes. If you want to cut anything more substantial then I would suggest getting a CO2 laser. I hope this helps!
Hi, as i know, that this laser can't or is not sugested to work without stoping after 30min, so my question is 1) how long it took for you to engrave that round labyrinth in the glass? I am just looking forward to manage better my continuous work with that laser. 3) Other suggestions? 2)And did you had some improvements for your box, regarding to cooling all that laser or system, did you touched with the hands which parts is hot after work (don't forget to switch off in case you will test it :) ) I would be very very appreciated to get some answers. Thank you, its great video.
With the 2500mW laser the cooling should be adequate to run it continuously. I have done several engravings that too hours with no problems. The laser module gets slightly warm to the touch after about 10 minutes but then doesn't get any hotter. The vents and fan position in my box weren't very good because the side of the engraver machine partially block airflow over the work piece. I would probably suggest changing the vents to the front and back rather than sides. I hope this answers your questions and helps.
the token was made out of galvanised steel. To create it, I used a matte black spray paint on the metal then etched it with the laser exposing some of the areas. I then used electroetching in slat water which removes the exposed meta. To electroetch it, the token must be the anode at +5V and I just used some scrap metal as the cathode. This video shows the process of electroetching: czcams.com/video/ncWXVOzNGbA/video.html
Hello mate, great video!!! Can you engrave some acrylic please? I am looking to get one of these to engrave glass and acrylic, but mostly acrylic. cheers
Thank you! Unfortunately I have taken the laser module out of my engraver for my laser gun project so i can't engrave anything else just yet. I did do some testing with clear acrylic before though. Just like with glass if you use black marker on the surface then you can engrave it but I found it didn't work as well as glass for refracting the light of my display stand.
Hi, I don't think there should be and problem cutting textiles. I have cut some patterns out of jeans and an a few other miscellaneous materials I had lying around, without any problems.
Thanks! I've actually changed the laser software to use laserweb as it is much better (there are loads of tutorials about setting it up). I don't tend to use the fold line mode anymore because it can cause issues with heat buildup and end up burning too deep or setting fire! So i just use the line by line raster now and get very clear results.
Hi Isaac. I am looking at buying the same piece of kit but would like to know if your laser is able to "cut" 3mm thick balsa (parts for RC plane... cutting speed or number of passes is no issue to me.)
Hi Richard, I haven't got any balsa wood to test and try to cut at the moment but I believe it would be able to with enough passes. I have cut 3mm acrylic with it so imagine balsa should work too. Originally where doing research before buying my laser I found this video which apparently shows a laser of the same power cutting 3mm balsa: czcams.com/video/e2zY00KaERQ/video.html I hope this helps!
No it is not powerful enough to etch metals. The laser module can be focused for different distances but it cannot be increased in power unless you replace the laser module with a more powerful one.
Hi.. Good gob! I'm interested to know the settings that you used for each material you tried for cutting and graving. e.g. speed, times,other settings.... I got recently my machine and seeking for details. Appreciate to share your experience
Thanks! I would strongly suggest testing the settings on a scrap piece of the material you want to engrave first as each material is slightly different. These are some of the settings I used so hopefully will be a good starting point. I'm using the EleksMasker software and have the X and Y axis acceleration set to 1000. For relatively soft woods I have been doing 1 pass at 200/1000 power and 600mm/min. For harder woods 450/1000 and 600mm/min. I did my leather wallet at 180/1000 power and 650mm/min. Glass with the black marker was engraved at 1000/1000 power and 700mm/min. Etching black paint off metal was done at 1000/1000 power at 1100mm/min. Cutting card took 2 passes at 1000/1000 power at 700mm/min. I hope this helps!
isaac879 can you make a video and explain the settings for cutting, engraving etc with the elksmaker software? And if we want to cut something we had just engraved (e.g keyring) how we program the laser to do that.
I've actually just upgraded changed the firmware and software I'm using with it to GRBL and LaserWeb4. One of the issues with EleksMaker software is that it wouldn't allow you to perform an engrave and cut. When I made some leather keyrings, I had to cut it out first then alight the engrave and do that separately. With LaserWeb it allows you to perform both in the same operation.
Yes. The rubber linked below works great for stamp making. www.banggood.com/A4-Laser-Rubber-Sheet-2_3mm-Gray-for-Printing-Engraving-Sealer-Stamp-DIY-Craft-p-1122428.html
Hi, I ordered the same unit. Use it to engrave on wood. How long can it run before you need to shut it down to preserve the laser from getting damaged or over heat? Thanks
As far as I am aware you can use it on full power for as long as you want without any overheating issues. Currently the longest engraving I did took about 2 hours.
Unfortunately it's not powerful enough to engrave directly onto aluminium. It can however burn the colour of anodised aluminium as seen at: czcams.com/video/Qm7XQ-oWaN4/video.html
Iordanis Milkoglou All the engravings in the video were done using the default EleksMaker laser engraving software. However I now using the Laserweb software, and it's much better.
Thank you for the very fast reply is there any manual to show me how to connect the engraver to the software as well as how to use (basic functions) the software Laserweb
I'm using 2500mv laser with grbl 1.1. but my laser is not engraving. it burn at lower speed and burns the paper at higher speed is does nothing did you know what may be the problem?
Sorry for the delay. Have you solved the problem yet? If not do you know if it is a software issue or hardware? Are you focusing the laser before attempting to engrave?
The fans were just standard 120mm pc fans. I believe this is the one: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120mm-x-25mm-12V-2Pin-Sleeve-Bearing-Cooling-Fan-for-Computer-Case-PK/322552096253?epid=1369074037&hash=item4b199a65fd:g:RAEAAOSwwvZZPqQL I used 100mm (4") pvc ducting: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLEXIBLE-PVC-DUCT-DUCTING-4-100MM-HOSE-PIPE-PER-METER/283028718860?epid=1190945491&hash=item41e5d3850c:g:~B4AAMXQlgtSwUQl&frcectupt=true Here is he 3D model I made of the adaptor from the fan to ducting: www.thingiverse.com/thing:2699237
Yes I would have. Once the firmware was upgraded to grbl and I started using laserweb everything worked properly. I've used it to engrave loads of things now and event cut leather and foam for various projects.

No it won't. The laser passes straight through clear glass/acrylic. For cutting clear materials an infrared CO2 laser is normally used.
Would this power laser be able to etch stainless steel? If not can it be increased in power or refocused?
No it is not powerful enough to etch metals. The laser module can be focused for different distances but it cannot be increased in power unless you replace the laser module with a more powerful one.

Yes I would have. Once the firmware was upgraded to grbl and I started using laserweb everything worked properly. I've used it to engrave loads of things now and event cut leather and foam for various projects.
Great video Isaac.
Do you think is it possible to engrave a serial number in a laptop with that laser?
Can it engrave anodised aluminium?
It can remove the anodized coating for metals. You can then use chemicals to actually etch the metal if desired
Will it cut 1/4 mdf
No. You would probably need a 40+W CO2 laser to cut it.
Hi do you have the file available for the glas... ... thx
Hi, I have the STL files for the display stand here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:2651255
The design engraved on it is here: i.redd.it/hd0vyrzlwq1y.png
I hope this is what you wanted :)

Can we upgrade it to 7w or 15 w..doesnt changing software
It shouldn't change the software but the different power laser modules are often different sizes so check the mounting bracket size/hope positions.
Hmm..👍👍👍

Hi, awesome where did you get it from ?
I got it from banggood.com It was the cheapest I could find it a few years ago when I bought it.
Try it without the music... I can hardly understand what you are saying. MUSIC IS NOT A CZcams REQUIRED COMPONENT!
