Rest in Peace. Your helpful advice & videos will be greatly missed.

@LaserLivestream 2 года назад

Nice tutorial. Great tip about acrylic re-melt! 👍

@derrickstewart5554 3 года назад

Great video. Can this be done with the laser that comes with the Ortur Laser Master 2 20 watt or do i need to by the G8?

@stretch3736 3 года назад

Your tutorials are fantastic! I just bought an Ortur...15 watt...how do I know what lens I have? My next step is to setup air assist.

@brittneystuart3642 3 года назад

Do you sell the 3D printed nozzle? I need to do this exact thing with my 20w ortur but I'm pretty new to the laser scene as well and feeling a bit discouraged after trying to cut a few different media types. What thickness is this acrylic?

@planeteuropa 3 года назад

I need to cut 5mm thick acrylic sheet. What type of lens should I use in the Ortur 2 laser machine ? Could I buy one ?

@kimberlyguaman3330 3 года назад

Hello can I just cut the acrylic with the lense it comes with or do I need a specific one ? If so can you please link It I’m thinking on getting the petit to cut acrylic to do acrylic cake topper or what would u recommend ?

@jdubdoubleu 3 года назад

Does changing the lens require different safety glasses?

@jameshuenefeld655 3 года назад

How long does it take for your machine to cut that out doing the twelve passes? Thanks

@Chevyguyscott 3 года назад

How does this act as a coaster? Looks like a cup could fall off of it. And the condensation will go right through to your table.

@chicknsunkeyes1740 3 года назад

I have ortur lasermaster2 20w. Black acrylic. No air assist. Sometimes it cuts properly sometimes it won't. I have had my laser for 2 weeks. Why will it only cut the acrylic sometimes? Like you said it seems to melt back together at times. I dont understand. I have tried all speeds and all different power levels. Looking for consistency because this acrylic is getting expensive fast! Thank you for any help.

Hi, I have an ortur master 2 20w, I have difficulty making the cut on 3mm wood, I put the assisted air but I have to do 6-7 steps and it does not always cut, can you help me?

@bryanbarney333 2 года назад

So I just got the ortur laser master pro 2 S2 with the lu2 4 sf module and haven't had any luck cutting through anything yet do you have

@ModularIsl 3 года назад

Could we just put black film over transparent acrylic? Any kind of masking maybe even tape to make cutting transparent acrylics possible?

@sergioknuf 3 года назад

How long did it take

@XcellencXX 3 года назад

Great stuff! I’m trying to figure out how to focus the later and cut shite acrylic. All it does is burn. Is it possible to cut white acrylic?

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

As mentioned in the video you should NOT try anything white with a visible light laser the reflections can be very dangerous!

@earlhudson7759 3 года назад

Will this machine cut 1/8" acrylic used for templates in leather working?

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

so long as it is dark, easly... (this is 1/8th in the video)

@timhamel2600 3 года назад

Hi. Great video. I have the Ortur LM2 20watt and just ordered a G-8 lens. Which lens comes with the Ortur 20watt by default? Is it the G-2?

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

Typically they are universal 3 elements, so you will want a G2 as well as a G7 to round things out...

Where do I get the laser focus knob for new lenses?

@mitsuman5 3 года назад

Hello from Nashville TN. get right to it ortur sent me a updated fixed lens laser. I bought 12x12 inch cast acrylic. I hand the laser for cutting at 200mm/s and the power 100. It did not cut. Also now the mask is brown sticky paper it comes with the text didn't engrave either at 600 mm and 80 percent power I know these are off if you or anyone van help. Thanks in advance... Ken

@LK-xe4vn 3 года назад

Hello, what laser wattage was used in video? Your newest 30W or old 15W? Or any other you have?

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

This is a 15watt (input) so about 4.5watt output...

@LK-xe4vn 3 года назад

@@DIY3DTECHcom that is good job for this laser then, will need to try one day with my 7w output laser :) probably without success but I won't try, I won't know hehehe

Hello sir , What is the best technique for aligning the laser with the piece and the LB model? Thx

@Talleyhoooo 3 года назад

The Ortur Laser Master 2 20 watt is not able to cut through acrylic. Be aware of that.

@amberafterliife 3 года назад

But it can engrave right ?

@vivalamac 3 года назад

Just an FYI you’ve spelt ‘turning, in the video title wrong 👍🏻. Great video though

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

My bad :-)

@IronMan-yg4qw 3 года назад

its not as crisp as a 40k laser could do. and the 40k laser can do a lot more. and the 40k laser is only $100 more. this otur is practically useless.

@DRob70 3 года назад

What 40k laser is $$280-$350 ready to use out the box. Everyone of them I've researched requires $250+ of upgrades

@IronMan-yg4qw 3 года назад

@@DRob70 the ortur is $280! the 40k on ebay is $400! and you dont need the upgrades! they are just that, upgrades! it works fine as it, unless you are doing a business. still better than the ortur buy a long shot! for a lil more money! and works right out the box too!

@DRob70 3 года назад

@@IronMan-yg4qw You can get an Ortur for $185, ready to use. So plus the $100 you spoke of, there's no $285 40k. And every real review, (meaning someone who has purchased and uses it), has said the mirrors, exhaust and cooling system have to be replaced. Cost of up to $250 extra

@IronMan-yg4qw 3 года назад

@@DRob70 THE $185 ORTUR IS ONLY THE 7WATT WHICH IS ACTUALY ONLY 3 WATT!!! THE 20 WATT WHICH IS ONLY 7 WATTS IS $285! ANOTHER $100 GETS YOU THE 40 WATT LASER FROM EBAY!!

@DIY3DTECHcom 3 года назад

Do you have both? I do (as well as several k40's) and the Orther does a great job as #1 it is FAR safer then the k40 (did you see the tube fail video), the safety issue list for k40 goes on and on. Second the k40 is junk out of the box, did you see all my alignment videos? The Ortur and NeJe just work out of the box. so sorry to say your comments are unfounded...
