Thank you Andy.

Great machine, just my second 100w laser myself early Decmember(Omtech 40x 24) but still haven't had a chance to set it up. Next week it will happen. :) Great video

@AndyBirdBuilds Год назад

Nice 👍

@JimmyKoKo2 5 месяцев назад

Andy. My garage in the winter could possibly get down to around zero. Can you add antifreeze to the distilled water to safe guard the chiller? Also you said you take the chiller indoors if it gets cold. Isn’t there water left inside the laser? Or does all the water empty into the chiller when a job is done?

@travisg1759 Год назад

For the materials that can bow I 3D printed some pegs that fit snugly in the honeycomb with a two-step cap on it that works great as a registration marker and a hold down.

@AndyBirdBuilds Год назад

I've thought about using something like this. The only problem is when I'm using the entire bed capacity. The entire honeycomb is covered.

@travisg1759 Год назад

@@AndyBirdBuilds IS there enough margin on the sides to use a magnet with a washer glued to the top?

@VoeltnerWoodworking Год назад

Congrats on the new toy. That was a TON of offcuts. Whoa. You’ve been busy.

@quinettabrown8836 10 месяцев назад

@aragorndedolor4171 Год назад

Hi Andy, in your video "new shop tour" you mentioned that you can cut 3 complete lanterns per hour on your glowforge laser. Unfortunately you didn't complete the full cut on your tunder laser. So how much does your new 100W laser speed up the complete cut with similar results compared to the glowforge? Double up to 6 per hour? Or is the speed comparable to the glowforge, the main difference is you aren't running your machine to it's maximum capacity?

@BarkSportCrafts Год назад

Did you look at the Aeon before deciding on the Thunder? I am buying a laser soon.

@Mark-oj7yt 3 месяца назад

How are you enjoying the Thunder Laser 100 watt? Would you still recommend this laser today ?

@AndyBirdBuilds 3 месяца назад

Yes! We've put this thing through a lot of production. Still running strong!

@steinbierz Год назад

Great video. Is there a jig available that can be used in the upper left corner so that you are always indexing to that spot instead of just eyeballing the placement? Thanks.

@myhoneyshandmade1077 Год назад

For my laser I cut out an l shaped square. It fits against the top and side. Just snug up your work piece to it.

@torodatruth Год назад

weird question regarding the chiller. is it a closed loop of water (like a water cooled pc)? if so, whats to keep you from putting radiator coolant in there that withstands the super low temps (plus all of the other advantages like minimum corrosion etc)...? (ps, i have ZERO experience with lasers outside of using some in college just curious)

@AndyBirdBuilds Год назад

Some people do this, but the manufacturer doesn't recommend it

@justinthompson7407 Месяц назад

How are these supposed to fit through doors?

@stevegrimes5105 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video! Have you had any issues with low temperatures in the winter or humidity in the summer in the garage?

@AndyBirdBuilds 7 месяцев назад

You got it! Personally I have not, but I've heard some people do.

Did anyone notice the "crumbs" in the door when he went to close it back up from cleaning out the tray? What was that giraffe/camel-looking thing in the lip of the door? @8:43 😀

@TheLaserKings Год назад

It’s a camel sitting down

@rjones04061987 Год назад

As nice as this laser is I'll stick with my Speedy 300 by Trotec. Very happy with it despite it being 20 watts less than this one but still a VERY competent machine for my needs. Congrats on the laser and looking forward to seeing what you create with it!

@Yukam1912 Год назад

Trotec us very expensive even though i dont even have a thunder😮

@Aidenn23 Год назад

the irony of the part about auto focusing the laser being out of focus in the camera is not lost on me.

@stephenlipton525 Год назад

sorta think the coolerrrr should've been included in the footprint

@CobyMcConnell Год назад

what made you choose Thunder over brands?

@jessepadron5499 Год назад

I wonder if there’s a good amount of business for this. I run a print shop and never been ask for this…

@AndyBirdBuilds Год назад

I think there is

@gaiustacitus4242 Год назад

Hobbyists should not buy expensive laser machines for several reasons, but one major reason. The gas insider laser tubes leaks out over time (known as "outgassing") even if not used. Outgassing results in a reduction of output, and over time the tube will need to be replaced even if it sits idle most of the time. The worst thing a hobbyist can do is to invest in equipment that requires periodic cash outlays just to keep it running.
