Thank you for these helpful videos! I just installed the LaserGRBL and I'm patiently waiting for my engraver machine to arrive :D I love your laugh btw
I'm not sure you can compare them: Laser GRBL is just to convert a picture or anything else and engrave with a laser. You cannot draw with this software. From what I know LightBurn is not free...
Hey Tony I am really enjoying your videos, but I am having issues when I go to engrave anything it comes out in reverse, I have tried to read on how to fix it and it is just all too confusing, do you have a video that shows how to change settings on LaserGRBL to where it won't do that?, I can normally figure things out pretty well but this program has me so confused. Thanks for any help.
On light burn you can adjust brightness and contrast, I accidently discovered this... click on the picture, then right click. A window will pop up and near the bottom it will say "adjust picture." Click on that and rhe adjustments can be made there
good video. I don't version you were using for this demo (probably 09.20 or 24). I believe in 1.0 the adjustment feature was added. Pick the photo and RIGHT MOUSE and pick "ADJUST IMAGE"
I’m very new to engraving. I literally know nothing. I just want to engrave words on bamboo candle tops. Is there something for that! I currently have lightburn. I don’t know what to do. Will I be able to even do this?
@@brakthehun thank you. I’m trying to engrave but it’s not doing anything. Nothing is showing up on my candle tops. Is there a dummies for lightburn 🤦🏾♀️
I've converted an old unused 3D printer to a small laser engraver using a diode laser, but i'm having issues getting LaserGRBL to recognize it. I can connect and burn with it using Lightburn, but LaserGRBL times out every time, it detects it's connected to COM3 so I know it can at least detect it's presence. The printer runs a variant of Marlin so i've set that in LaserGRBL but have had no luck at all.
Nice video! I’m new to engraving and still learning my machine…Can you tell me how to keep the transversal lines from engraving?? I have read some suggestions but they are just too detailed for a beginner like me! I have the Ortur Laser Master 2 using both Lightburn and Lasergrbl.
@@brakthehun that’s correct! Between the moves in the white space, if I’m engraving words, there are lines. In addition , around an object, there is often a shaded border.
@@brakthehun yes, after about 30-45 seconds which I believe is the default settings. Weird part, I don’t recall this happening initially. I’ve only had my laser for about 3 months and I am still very much a beginner still learning.
I don't quite understand all the functions for lightburn and I don't know how to open gcode files to burn. So I stick with lasergrbl and use easel for all the settings. Lasergrbl can see my gcodes that I generated.
