Thanks Roger Ed

@katspeace5550 8 месяцев назад

Great tutorial 💜 Sorry I missed the rest of the live earlier. You guys are Awesome! Love the wig and 🤓

@murpheyslaw 7 месяцев назад

I watched a few videos on this method and yours is the clearest explanation to get the best results, thanks for the file also

@roblear6322 Год назад

Great tutorial Roger - and love the shirt!

@arthurknauf216 6 месяцев назад

I spray painted some glazed white tile with black spray paint then engraved the tile. I love the way the laser looked through the black paint before wiping it off. My question is, Can I engrave glazed/unglazed black tile?

@rogersshop 6 месяцев назад

Yes, but results will vary. Depending on the composition of the tile. It may engrave white, gray, or black.

@LarryDMitchell Год назад

Nice project and explained very nicely. I can see designing a 2x2 tile project (4 tiles total) and then placing them next to each other on the bed and burning them all at once to make a design 8x8.

@jeffreycanfora1091 Год назад

Good video. Haven’t had any luck yet with tiles. Will try again, and will check out the shirt link. Thank you.

@cointroll Год назад

I see that you have made some custom risers. I just bought that laser and would like to get a set. Even if they are just hold downs I like the idea of the machine lining up every time.

@rogersshop Год назад

moonshinecrafts.com/product/generic-laser-foot-mounts/ is for the mounting feet. I did not design any risers for this laser since I have others that I can adjust height on. Measure your leg thickness. Some are 4mm and some are 5mm.

Absolutely love ur content

@kd-CarvingAway 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for preparing this video. It has answered a lot of my questions. 1. I was thinking of making tiles as framed displays. Have you come across any wooden (picture) frames that work with the tile dimensions? 2. Have you tried using the Titanium-Alcohol solution method yet?

@rogersshop 8 месяцев назад

Titanium Dioxide/Alcohol works well and cleanup is easy, but MUST be sprayed to get a uniform coating. Have never looked for frames as ours are for coasters or actual user on walls as tiles.

@buddysmith7080 4 дня назад

Roger, do you leave the little nubby things on the side of the tile?

@rogersshop 4 дня назад

Most of the time, yes. They can be ground off.

@slhasebroock Год назад

Another GREAT video! I think you have covered this before. But on the burn test grid, how does it adjust the power down. Looks like it is all 100%. Must be somewhere in LB you are telling it to decrease power as it goes across the grid by colors? Thank you! Steve

@rogersshop Год назад

Yes, in the layers, power is set at different values for each square. I did not make this grid.

@slhasebroock Год назад

@@rogersshop Ya, found it in LB. For the benefit of others, you can change the power you want for each box in Shape Properties.

@paulmay6013 Год назад

Great video! You may have changed my mind about which model to get, so much choice! Do you recommend air assist with laser engraving? Great hair BTW.

@rogersshop Год назад

Air assist is good have when engraving wood and leather, etc. I do not use it when engraving ceramic tiles, slate, or stainless.

@buddysmith7080 4 дня назад

Roger, I don't have Lightburn. Do you know of a program that will convert the files you generously share to an SVG?

@rogersshop 3 дня назад

The only way to convert a Lightburn file to SVG is with Lightburn.

@seniorchief48 21 день назад

It would be helpful to mention the wattage of the laser when doing your projects.

@rogersshop 21 день назад

I do when it matters. Here it does not since you need to run the tile test first, regardless of laser brand or power to obtain the correct setting for the engrave.

@mikevilla498 Год назад

Great video. Can you do the same thing with other colored tiles, not just white tiles? Many thanks for the ideas.

@rogersshop Год назад

Yes. The larger tile in the video is not white, but an off-white with tan mottling.

@C3qrT Месяц назад

I've been leaving the paint on, and then spraying them with gloss. It might be a prettier finish, but I'm finding that the gloss scratches and of course it removes the absorbent properties of ceramic by being covered in paint... Would naptha work for this the same as acetone?

@rogersshop Месяц назад

Yes, eventually, but VERY, VERY slow. Lacquer thinner also works, but not as fast as Acetone.

@C3qrT Месяц назад

@@rogersshop Another question if you will. Were these glazed or unglazed? I was considering using the method where you just TiO2 mixed with IPA but I'm not sure if it works for our raw unglazed ceramic tiles.

@rogersshop 29 дней назад

@@C3qrT Glazed. Works the same on raw.

@BobsWorld379 Год назад

Roger, would you share the file you used for 3D printed leg hold downs for the laser engraver? I need a set really badly. Robert Coant

@rogersshop Год назад

email me to raltman57@gmail.com with your laser model. The mounts are not universal to all lasers.

@melannieworld Месяц назад

Will this work with plates too?

@rogersshop Месяц назад

Yes.

@davidlettau6878 Год назад

Love your videos. Recently my wife and I purchased a Longer Ray5 10W. I downloaded the files for the tile projects. When I open up the Norton Tile test grid the power is set to 100% on all the layers. Do I have to change the power in the Lightburn file?

@danyodice1048 Год назад

Great video Rodger really good information. Do you sell your lightburn graphic libraries by chance? I would be interested. Thanks.

@rogersshop Год назад

Thanks. I do not sell graphic libraries, but do offer them free with certain projects.

@buddysmith7080 4 дня назад

I don't see the link to the Norton test file. Can you please link it?

@rogersshop 4 дня назад

Google it. I don't own the rights to it, so can't share it.

@deadalus888 Год назад

Hi Roger. Did you ever manage to sort out the cable management for your ZBAITU 40W Laser Engraving Cutting Machine M81??? Many Thanks!

@rogersshop Год назад

No. Rather than try to design a drag chain and some way to add air assist, I took one of my xTool D1 lasers and added the extension kit, then put a drag chain on it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6JhksZasl6Q.html

@plurmingo1 Год назад

what is the purpose of the paint? i asked a question, then you removed the paint. do the lasers come with instructions on how to do these test grids?

@rogersshop Год назад

The white paint contains titanium dioxide, which reacts with the laser beam, turning the engraving black. Once engraved, the white paint is removed with solvent and the remaining black engraving is permanent. without the paint, it will not make a visible engrave. Lasers do not come with any directions beyond assembly and startup.

@dafyddgould9485 Год назад

hi, wot would u need to change if you wanted to burn a picture (as in say my wife) or would this not be good

@rogersshop Год назад

That can certainly be done. The photo needs to be setup with a high contrast first. You will need to try some experiments first to establish the best setting. Too complex to put into a comment reply and this would be an entire video subject. May do that in the near future.

@shhshsh2989 Год назад

Im trying this method on my xtool 10w and only geting grays same paint. Is there something i could be doing wrong? Thank you

@rogersshop Год назад

Did you make a test grid tile first? There should be several squares that are black which will reference the best speed and power. Also, make sure your laser lens is clean! I've seen several instances where this is the problem.

@fingerstylesabahan8517 Год назад

is there any others option for the spray paint?? other than that brand??

@rogersshop Год назад

I use this brand and color due to the high level of Titanium Dioxide. Cheaper brands may (will) have lower levels. The higher the level, the better the result.

@fingerstylesabahan8517 Год назад

@@rogersshop ooo thanks kind sir, because this spray paint is so expensive 🤣

@luizcancelacancela7500 Год назад

ola amigo , sou do brasil queria saber se o senhor pode me falar qual o produto que passa na ceramica para depois colocar na maquina laser a minha e co2

@rogersshop Год назад

Coating is white matte Rustoleum spray paint

@jinfolsom 10 месяцев назад

Love the tile engravings. However, I noticed your price for the coasters was $2. How can you make any money with that? You have to have more than $2 of your time invested. For me that is less than 5min of time. then your cost and overhead plus profit.

@rogersshop 10 месяцев назад

Mass production. I don't make one at a time as in this video. Made in lots of 12 per design, mostly unattended, on multiple lasers. Paint is applied via HVLP gun, 100 at a time. Clean off is in a 5 gallon bucket of acetone in large lots.
