Love your videos. The one thing I wish you included is the output wattage of the laser you use. Otherwise, knowing your settings doesn't necessarily help get me in the ballpark.
Thanks for this Demo.
My pleasure
Nice work. I now use the tempera paint technique after you suggested it in an older video. Works like a charm! I found for my laser the best settings for me were: Speed: 2000, Power: 50/60% and Passes: 3. My edges turned out crisp and clean. I also found that Meguires ultimate car polish and Meguires wax cleans the material, removes scratches and leaves a beautiful shine afterwords. Thanks!
Thanks, I’ll give these settings a try
What's your laser?
@@MrVity01 it’s just a small Genmitsu LE5040 5.5w. Works great if you use the right materials and techniques.
Oooo nice project!
Glad you like it
Thank you --- well done
You’re very welcome. Thank you for visiting my channel
great demo :)
Thank you very much
some one pointed out in a video I watched that I have yet to see in any other videos is you need too take a wire brush or wire wheel and clean off these etched areas. they will peal off after a while and will become sharp and will cut someone.
Enjoyed your video, would you please mention what rotary tool you are using and will it work on my Longer Ray5 10w laser. Thank you
I'll be "that guy". Looking at the results at @18:40 the etching does not look very good with lots of streaks and spots not etched as much as the rest. I wonder if it is because applying the paint with the brush results in an inconsistent thickness and perhaps applying from a spray can or air brush would be better.
Yes, you are right. Spray paint would be better. The streaks are from the paint.
Have you ever tried this on clear plexiglass or polycarbonate? I know that normally the laser would go right through it, but maybe the tempera paint might work?
Nice work, that looks pretty easy. I have a question, lightburn has a trace image does it not work on this type of project? Someday I would really like to try out my Rotary. Happy Holidays.
Yes, Lightburn has a trace image and I use it all the time. With this graphic I expected a lot of problems and just feel more comfortable in using Inkscape. As it turned out, there was no problem. I could have used Lightburn easily
Very Nice tutorial! I wonder how green glass would engrave?
Not sure, have not tried that
Great teaching video. New to engraving (40w Yora)...a couple questions if I may (for anyone to answer). Any tips on how to make sure your item is lined up and square to the laser? in one video I saw PawPaw had what looked like a baking rack that had a grid. Also, in this video (and others) I saw a "square" that he mentions but he only shows the edge lining up against the item, not the square end. Im assuming you are squaring up against the rail? Thanks again
If I am cutting through the material I use a sheet of metal placed on the workbench and then a cookie cooling rack to create air space underneath the material. Otherwise, for normal engraving I just place the material directly on the workbench. As far as squaring the project. I use a square placed against the frame to align the project and or the rotary roller
Cool
Thank you very much
😯☺Merry Christmas 🎄🎅
Merry Christmas to you and your family
@@PawPawsWorkShop terima kasih 🙏☺
Thank you, excellent timing! Question, what rotary machine are you using?
FoxAlien 4040xe with the rotary roller and 20 watt laser
@@PawPawsWorkShop Thank you.
So, for the fox alien system, you do not have to invert the image like you did on the ortur?
No, you do not. I do not have the Ortur.
Nice video
Thank you very much. I appreciate you visiting my channel
Nice, one question, which laser are you using in this video? Merry Christmas to you and your family
FOXAlien 4040xe with the 20watt laser
what is the laser that you are using to make that glass
great demo... why did you have to paint the whole glass, if you only engraved one side?
That was my test glass. By painting it on all sides I am able to do multiple tests using just one glass.
Awesome job!! Which laser did you use and why? I know you have both the Fox Alien and JTechPhotonics.
I used the 20 watt FOXAlien laser for this project
@@PawPawsWorkShop I have a Reizer Mega as well. What rotary unit is this? Thanks, love the videos.
Ever had it.just not work? I got the tempura paint and a glass from the dollar store. After I lasered it, there was nothing etched. I used 6000 at 85% power. Other things etched at that same speed and power..Just slower speed?? Thanks.
Experimenting is the key to finding what works best
Where do I find the mm per rotation and diameter setting for my sculpfun s10 when I am using my rotary attachment?
The mm per rotation is in the documentation. The diameter is found by measuring the object
I noticed striations in the engraving. Could this be because of brushing the tempera.
Yes, the tempera paint was a little thin. Spray would do better. You need an even coat. Usually the paint is applied a little thicker
hello there. how do you know the first setting for your set up? 39.xmm rotation for you. what do you measure for that? obviously the second number is the diameter of either of the rollers. I tried some trial and error and printed out 10x10mm and 20x20 mm squares to get this right for me but it's a lot of work. ; (
Both of my rotaries came with these settings specified in the manual. Trial and error does sound like a pain!
Can you do this with borosilicate glass?
That is a very strong glass with silica and boron trioxide. This makes it more resistant to thermal shock than common glass. I have not tried this type of glass. Just guessing I think it could work. Need to do w some testing for sure
Hi, Why is it needed to paint the glass?
A diode laser needs the paint to focus on otherwise the laser would go straight through the glass

Does the brand of tempera paint matter? The cheap stuff from Walmart dries on the glass item and then flakes off.😞
I use the cheap stuff from Walmart and Hobby Lobby as well as Michael's. You most likely need to clean the glass with Acetone or lacquer thinner first.
@@PawPawsWorkShop I will try that. Guess 91% rubbing alcohol is just not good enough for this.
No, it will not remove the oils
@@PawPawsWorkShop unfortunately I used acetone, the stuff from the nail polish section), and I had the same result, cracking and flaking. Will try the acetone from the hardware dept next.
But ice work!!.
You didn’t show the settings
At 14:09 I state that I am using 70 ipm and 40% power. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching
You are not teaching good habits.
The Rectangle should be placed on either the T1 or T2 layers from the beginning. That way IF you forget to turn it off, you won't spoil a perfectly good piece of material by engraving a box around your graphic.
I have tried this 3 ways, The full tempura paint method, the thinned down method with an airbrush, and using White spray paint.
The Spray paint method is the easiest, and clean up is just as easy, either with water or paint remover. All of them come out beautiful.
I’m glad to hear you experimenting. That’s awesome. I wish more people would test things to see what works best for themselves. You learn so much that way. Thanks for watching
Inches? I can 't count, don't understand , because the rest of the world (+ 6,5 billion uses mm )? When is the USA IS goimg to change?
Most people can convert it on their own to something they can understand. If you can't that is on you.
Hi Paw Paw. I want to thank you for doing these videos. It has been invaluable to a newbie like myself. the link you have that says a link to your laser no longer takes you to it. can you tell me what the make, model, power it is? I have a longer Ray5 10W, and I want to make sure my laser can handle a beutifully as yours, or I would need toi change it. Thanks again Paw Paw.
