Again, I learned so many tips and tricks! Here is one for you - you can curve text using that blue dot, yours is to the right side of the text once selected, mine is on the left.

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 3 года назад

Yes ma'am! I shouldn't have said, "the only way to do it." There are 3 ways to do it. I use the curve text feature in other videos and really a lot on my projects, but the only *exact* way to do it is aligning text to a traced line. I can never seem to get the curve text feature exactly and proportionately aligned. Thanks for the comment!

Really great information. I have a home built 100 watt CO2 laser with a 18" X 36" bed. Been using RDWorks (came free with the DSP controller) and just from watching 2 of your videos, I have to get lightburn now. You make it look so easy. Need to ask why you didn't use your CO2 laser to make this???? It should of made the cut in one pass and no burning (if you have it at the right cut speed). BTW, I gave away my home built diode laser after I built the CO2 one. The CO2 is 1000% better than the diode that I had. How do you do backlash compensation on you diode laser??? Does lightburn have in it somewhere?? Most that I've seen don't have it and that is one of the many reasons I got rid of mine. Thanks for doing these very informative videos Rodney

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 года назад

I was in transition from one shop to another at the time of this video, so the Co2 was in storage. Besides, I have a large amount of diode laser uses watching so I use both. You can choose to "hide backlash" on the laser tab in the Optimization Settings, and adjust the eccentric nuts, and adjust the belts or any combination of the three or all to eliminate backlash.

Hello so glad I found you channel. I'm a crafter and I sew , I do sublimation and also vinyl and I wanted to add something else to my arsenal. I literally just received my laser in the mail. I got the kentok tool LE400pro. I don't even know where to begin to be honest. I'm familiar with inkscape but not light burn at all. In fact I haven't even downloaded it and played with it yet. I haven't even set up my laser yet. It doesn't have air assist or the (waffle) thing that I've seen is an option. How important are those ? Super excited and nervous at the same time lol I've watched a fee of your videos and seen you get your cutting boards from dollar general or dollar tree (I have to go back and watch your videos again lol) but where else do you get your materials? Any advice would be really helpful . Do you have any do's and don'ts videos for us brand new newbies so we don't ruin our machines or more importantly so we don't burn our house down ? Thanks so much

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Год назад

Stay tuned in the New Year Ella! I have a video coming out about how to get started with a laser for people that are totally new to the hobby! I get most of my supplies on Amazon and leave links in the video descriptions. And yes, air assist is a necessary accessory!

@mpcaz 2 года назад

Is there a reason why you wouldn't just set the clock mech hole to a cut instead of burn so you didn't have to drill it out later? Where did you get your elevated base plate? by the way, listening to you reminds me of watching a Bob Ross video while he paints. Very soothing!

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 года назад

I could have cut it with the laser, but I had to use the drill press anyway to drill out the area where the mechanism sits on the back so it didn't protrude from the wall too far. Links for the cut plate are in the description.

@stevejoker1611 2 года назад

Hi rich first I would like to thank you for these videos I've learnt so much from them. I make a lot of clocks but out of old vinyl records and I engrave the numbers on and I've noticed some come out lighter then the others but now wen I do them I change the cutting setting to fill shapes individually. It's a nice burn and does it knocks the print time down too as there's no travel time. Not sure if u have covered this yet but if not hoped it helped or anyone else watching who didn't know about reducing the travel time

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 года назад

Yes Steve, there are several ways to shorten the time. I try and cover them in different videos.

Why drill out the center when you could have just put it on the red layer and cut it out? Also the curve on the bottom of the graphic that you used is slightly bigger than the top so the text matches the bottom but not the top. Maybe use the curve text feature instead? Great video was always. I know I'm being pretty on the comments.

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 года назад

I don't cut the center hole on clocks John because It sometimes leaves scorch marks, so I prefer to use the drill press for a clean hole. I could have used the curve text tool, and I usually do, but I try and show the different features of Lightburn in my videos. There's almost always a faster or easier way to do things. Thanks for the comment!

Downloaded the clock from from this site, looked in the preview to see it cut , clicked out of preview and started the run, when it started to run I then noticed that the run time was just over 7hrs, the settings were ; label 2000/70 pwr CO1 2000/80.0 and T1 Tool frame. It seem's a slow project to do, 7hrs is a long time, was these the settings that you used to make the clock? The end product does not look as tidy as your's, I am using a Falcon 10wmachine. If I make another is there any way of cleaning it up and cutting down the run time? Have no idea how to send a picture to show you. Looking forward to a helpful reply.

Thanks again Lonnie!

@jeffyoder76 2 года назад

Just starting with my laser and had a question. You mentioned washing the piece off to remove some of the burning. What exactly is that process?

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 2 года назад

I sand it to remove the burn or wet it to make the soot satin darker.

I seem not to be able to get any of the ticks or numbers to go around the circle. Not too sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm on a mac and holding down command, should I be holding down CTRL on the Mac?

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 9 месяцев назад

No, the command key. People often call it the “pretzel key,” “Apple key,” or “clover key.”

Settings must be adapted to the Laser type in use,right?

Yes, of course!

GONE FISHING, well I will be tomorrow, neat clock BTW. Could I ask what is your Plywood resting on? I have heard cutting Ply is more efficient if the ply is raised off the bed. It looks metal? Hope your feeling better today Rich.

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 3 года назад

Yes and yes! Perforated sheet metal from Lowes and search "punk spikes" from Amazon

What's the best way to flip the five and the six so they read properly

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Год назад

I show you in the video Darren.

@willowcreekgraphics Год назад

I can't get past the rotated numbers that seem wrong, makes it awkward to read. I suppose you can stand on your head to see that it's 6 o'clock.

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Год назад

I showed both ways Charles... I like the inverted numbers!

@paulevans8174 Год назад

The lower numbers are upside down. Do you have a quick fix for that?

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Год назад

It's in the video.

Why would you want to drill the center hole instead of using the laser to cut it out?

Because I forgot it?

Need help please. I followed along with the instructions and got everything done the same as you but when I go to preview window, all it shows is gone fishing. What did I do wrong?

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 3 года назад

You probably have the other layer output ticked off in your Cuts / Layers tab. Make sure the Output is on (green) Laurie.

@laurienewcombe7383 3 года назад

Thank you, will try later

@laurienewcombe7383 3 года назад

All my lines in the cuts and layers have a green check, except for the tool. When I preview it just a white circle comes up all black around it. Ther is nothing in the circle.

My only complaint about the numbers is that it bothers me that the 6 looks like a 9. Obviously, you know what it is from it's position, but it still bugs me.

@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy 3 года назад

Most people don't choose that but I like it Erica. You can set it either way.
