    Thanks Kendra. I started doing epoxy Dec 2023 and wanted to add an engraved design to my boards but didn’t know how. I just got in my Aeon Mira and can’t wait to try this. I would never have thought to put clear epoxy before the colored epoxy. Now all I need is a really good sander 😊

    I can get an HL 1060 for $1000 with a cw3000 Chiller from a friend of a friend. Its in good condition . This will be my 1st laser engraver. Would it be a good 1st purchase for the HL? I am wanting to cut 3mm acrylic and to engrave and make business signs, Wall art , wood art, etc..I would also like to cut out thicker piece sof acrylic and wood . It comes with RDworks V8 .. I see you say I can purchase Lightburn software with this HL 1060 correct? Thank you for the information as I am wondering for the price, it seems like a good deal & will it work well for my needs ?

    • @KendrasGotWood
      @KendrasGotWood 21 день тому

      Sounds like a good deal if everything runs. Even if there’s a lot of hours on the tube, replacing it would still be worth it I’d think. If it has the Ruida controller I would think Lightburn would work. I wouldn’t bother with RD works or whatever. Will probably be a bit of a learning curve but I don’t see why wouldn’t it wouldn’t do what you’re looking for and then some.

    Thank you for your channel ! I greatly appreciate all the knowledge you pass on to people like me who are new to laser machines and wood crafting! Your pieces are always just so beautiful ❤️ Where do you usually get your birch wood from? I usually get mine from an Etsy wood supplier but the cost is too much for me now since they raised their prices quite a bit so I end up spending more on material now than gaining a profit. Thank you again for being amazing and for all your help! Looking forward to more videos.
