Hey Ben, Nora has her Batman logo for her build. 😀 Enjoyed your presentation and comments, have been looking at an engraver/cutter for some scratch building. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Great stuff. I had an Otur laser and returned it because it didn’t work as advertised. I’m impressed so far. Hope you do some more follow up vids as you get more used to the software. Thanks for sharing this buddy. Papadan
Air Force! (Thanks for service...[Retired E7 here]) Just purchased this model and appreciate your review and am now looking forward to projects! Curious, have you been cutting basswood or cedar pieces for your models (would think cutting wing sections a great use for this)?
we have a tt 25. and also a 50 watt co2 laser engraver a BIG ONE......that can do anything. our big one is water cooled and air assisted. thank you for doing the video...t was helpful. God bless you.
Wow. Not sure of the application, although the logo and Batman were cool but, I'm impressed too. Another skill to master! Hmmmmm, engraved decking on the Titanic???
Nice review Ben. I'm into many hobbies, including HO model railroading. If something like this would cut 1/16 basswood cleanly it would be a game changer for making buildings. Can you adjust the output power from the software? It may make less smoke and not burn as deep into the wood which would make your image clearer. Or can you adjust for a faster movement which would have the same effect. Take care, Steve.
Yes I’m pretty sure you can control all of this stuff. And cutting 1/16” basswood is easy for this laser. I just don’t know enough yet on how to do those things.
Could you make structures with it from thin wood like a laser wood cutter? Even if it’s maybe just adding siding detail for a wall and trimming the excess
Hi from N.W Wales GBR. Could you please test the laser on a high carbon steel alloy as I'm a hobby bladesmith and thinking of buying the TTS-5 for putting my etch on the blade.
Hello, I have almost this exact laser. Thanks for the video. Question, the red guide light is offset from the burning laser. Is that how it is suppose to be? Is there a way to align the two? If it is suppose to be offset, what is the offset? Thanks so much. I can not find anything about this anywhere. I have only used this thing a couple of times because I have a hard time centering my work.
Opa. Ela não possui uma forna de ajustar o foco do laser a não ser pela autura? Se tiver outra forna por favor me mostre pois preciso de um corte mais fina mas não estou conseguindo 😭
I love my twotrees laser but i just have a problem with lining my material up correctly every time. sometimes it feels like I'm guessing. does anyone have any suggestions?
Great video! I got my laser a few days ago but having the hardest time trying to figure out how to replace the solid red two tree peice on the bottom of the laser and replace it with the red clear cap that you have on your laser head. Any tips on how to put that clear red cap on?
@hobbytimewithpapadan8436 Hi and thank you for your advices. I afforded the same laser and machine recently. I notice you said it is and entry level laser???!!!! What is NOT an entry level laser and what have you got is not and entry level laser and what are you doing with it? I'm curious because with this one i'm able to make paint burning for professional PCBs with very tiny packages. It has been difficult to find the good paint, the good speed, and so on, but now it's perfect! May be we could have a better resolution : i could realise tracks are a bit too thin when they are at 90 degrees of the scanning. This is a problem on tracks
I have a question about the engraver. Is it capable of burning in different shades? Like gradients? I want to purchase an engraver but I need it to be able to do different shades of burn, if that even is a thing.
I am not an expert. But I know lasers do achieve what you’re talking about. Either through changing the number of passes over and area or by changing the laser burn setting. I would do a little more research on the subject before pulling the trigger on this particular laser, to make sure it will do what you want.
You forgot to tell folks that you hope nothing goes wrong with it because their support is non existent. Also if there are some really important parts missing they don't care.
Dude. These machines are so difficult to use of you have never done this before. I bought it. Spent hours and days and weeks. I still cannot understand the software properly, also cannot etch metal, just so many issues. Not worth it. Imagine taking an hour burning.. What's my electricity bill going to be. After an hour u realise the setting was off and quality not good. You gta start all over again..😢 😢
This company is a joke. Save yourself the time. I ordered a machine and it was supposed to be here in 3-4 days. After 2 weeks and 3 emails I finally heard back and was told to would be 2 more months. I asked for a refund 4 times and they have not responded. I had to reach out to VISA to get a refund. Seriously go elsewhere.
sorry....but a review by someone who does not work with digital lasers, doesnt know pro's and cons is a waste of time....watch videos by someone more knowledgeable.....
Please split your video into sections. Good review though. You get what you pay for and this laser is on the very low end and the quality leaves much to be desired. I wouldn't purchase this.
Too much siesta, where the hell else are you going to have one built? Try buying one from elsewhere, I doubt it. If you do manage to find one, the parts will come from China. Never mind, china is headed toward bankruptcy so it won't be long until there'll be bugger all coming from anywhere.
First thing before its use would be to put in a dedicated space that is WELL ventilated and preferably with a GOOD exhaust (to remove burnt wood smell, or other materials) and... HEAVILY ENCOURAGED... is to wear some sort of protective eyewear to eliminated the stray light waves from the laser. I would build a case to put it in so the foremost can be contained in one unit.
