Awesome video mate! Thank you so much for upcycling the boxes and making those wonderful artworks. A vivid realisation of "art is from daily life"!

@bobwire6440 4 года назад

Brilliant I am also waiting on my 2.0 cant wait to get started on my Amazon boxes.

@joewaldner6986 3 года назад

Did you get it yet? How is it going so far?

@princessadventures234 Год назад

Beautiful work! I want to design the multi-layered art like you’re doing, and generally have been told you do it in Illustrator or similar. Is Snapmaker somehow better for this specific type of project or simply a personal choice and not much different than doing it in other programs? Thank you!

@WynandSchoonbee 4 года назад

Love this - looks really neat - once my Snapmaker A250 enclosure is assembled I'm going to mount the laser module. Great project idea!

@RjDollen 4 года назад

This was fantastic and I implor you to do more videos with the SnapMaker. Maybe even a "so you got a SnapMaker 2.0 getting started video.

@WrongTimeWatch 4 года назад

You could also make thin framable multilayer designs with a large format cutter plotter and a bunch of card stock.

@RobertPersichitte 3 года назад

I just got ripped off by the company. If it's not too late, I'd go with something else. My order arrived 3 months late and completely non-functional. After a month of trying to get help, I have no solutions from customer support. I paid for an A350, but got a big paperweight.

Jack of all trades-master of none. Caveat emptor to all those overly enthused. There's a reason why your lawnmower isn't a vacuum cleaner and a washing machine all in one. Do your search before biting the carrot.

@Mr-pm3jp 3 года назад

Pretty sure those are all combined in the new SpaceX suits... Isn't it weird your one hand pushes the button on the lawnmower, vacuum and washing machine? Should you attach multiple specialized robot hands to your arms for each tool? Would you prefer stranded on an island with jack of all trades, or a useless master accountant? What REALLY disturbs me is the idea that outside nature requires human janitorial maintenance, I'm positive it doesn't, Grass is meant to grow. If you had hardwood floors, instead of an expensive ripoff vacuum you could by a printer/washing machine. And actually breathe. My hands are a washing machines and double as nose picker, typer, etc. Taste the meat/carrot/drink before you cut off your hands.

@sweetpeahome 2 года назад

I just bought the snapmaker A350 could you tell me what bit and settings you used to cut the thin plywood?

@RobertPersichitte 3 года назад

Question: A lot of RU-vidrs got free units to talk these up. Did you pay for your unit or get one for free?

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

I got it for free and I gave my 100% honest feedback. That’s why I pointed out several things I don’t care for. But it really is a good machine overall.

@jkuczero 4 года назад

Mine was supposed to be here by now, but I got an email telling me it'll be September before it's getting shipped, with the enclosure.

I ordered in March. I think the company is really struggling. Mine doesn't work. Look at comments from buyers, most don't work.

Ive been eyeing up the 2.0 (A350) but idk if the price is worth it. Ive seen mixed reviews about the equipment but it seems so useful and universal

@davidlangton6564 4 года назад

I am awaiting my Snapmaker, but have a different laser engraver that I have had for a while. I have not tried cutting stuff yet. What settings do you use to get the laser to cut cardboard boxes? Thanks.

@rustyjunk65 3 года назад

Yes, what power/workspeed, number of passed, depth are you using to get a clean cut through the cardboard. Mine are not getting clean cuts. Thanks!

@TedTalksBass 3 года назад

how did you get that to size right? I can get anything that size on the A350... which I'm starting to think was a waste of money. Luban is....well... awful

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

Sorry it's been a pain. It's definitely got its issues and some stuff is downright painful but I've been able to get it to do what I need so far. If you have any specific questions I'm happy to at least take a shot at them. I'm not affiliated with Snapmaker other than making these videos on their stuff but I've been in touch with some pretty helpful folks from the company. For sizing, I grabbed each design, made sure the dimensions were identical for each layer and that the starting point / home point for each were identical as well. I didn't really have any issues but I might be missing what you're asking. Let me know if I can help.

@CraftyHomeChic 3 года назад

Hello! Can you tell me please, what parameters you used to engrave on cardboard? thank you

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

It's been so long since I made these that I'm afraid I can't remember what the settings were. I know I kept the laser at 100% and ran it pretty slowly so that it could cut in one pass. I would recommend checking out the Snapmaker Facebook group because a lot of the formulas/settings are listed there for different materials.

@kdwrghtsr 4 года назад

What's the investment on the printer.

@LRN2DIY 4 года назад

They range from $880 - $1320 USD at the moment. They cost more than a traditional 3D printer by itself because you're getting all three functions.

@bradleyulmer1856 4 года назад

Also if you’re in the USA....tack on a few extra hundred $$ due to the trade issues with China.

@telhunter1 4 года назад

@matthiasthurmer6042 3 года назад

Is it cutting the cardboard in one step?

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

Yeah, it can handle the cardboard in one step as long as you don't move it too fast.

@ATAsgard1 2 года назад

How difficult was it learning the software for the Snapmaker? I've heard pretty much all cnc/laser machines are notorious for a rough learning curve.

@LRN2DIY 2 года назад

It’s honestly way more intuitive than a lot of CNC and laser software. They designed it to be easy to learn and I had no trouble with it. Like anything new, there will be some fiddling around but they also have several training videos to help you get going.

@RobertPersichitte 3 года назад

The company is really struggling fulfilling orders. Mine was three months late and completely non functional.

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

I’ve been following the news on this. It stinks that orders have been so slow and that there have been issues. My experience was really positive but I know some folks have had terrible delays and quality control issues.

@srpharmd 3 года назад

Newbie - trying to separate the downloaded Mandala file into separate images without any knowledge of these vector software packages is impossible. Load the file but see nothing. Tired multiple software packages. I there a tutorial somewhere to help separate the images into individual files?

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

Hey Steve, yeah - all of the vector work can be intimidating at first but I'd recommend trying out Inkscape. Here's an old video I found that might help with what you need. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S-wIs5HN5cc.html In Illustrator, you can press CMD/CTRL Y to show the outlines. There's a way to do this in Inkscape to by changing views: tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/View-Misc.html. Hopefully these links help to get you on your way.

@costyi90 3 года назад

Hi! Ho w much is the resolution of the laser? How much close can two lines be cut? Thanks for the answer

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

The laser resolution is listed at 50 to 300 microns. I honestly couldn't tell you exactly what that means but I was quite impressed with how close the laser lines could be.

@AG-zk3bb 3 года назад

@LRN2DIY 3 года назад

@@AG-zk3bb Hey Allen, I think it would be intricate enough to make that happen but I don’t think the laser would be strong enough to do a decent engraving job on metal. I could be wrong but it’s only 1.6 watts.

how did you prep the mandala file to cut? the format they give it to you is terrible

@@LRN2DIY so theres 7 layers to the design. and they arrayed all 7 layers into the single svg. you basically need to crop each one out. im just not savy enough with inkscape to do so. was just wondering how you went about it.

@@LambskinWhisper Ah - that's right. It's been a little while and I had forgotten. I think I did have to crop each one out. Here's an Inkscape tutorial to help with that.
