thank you

Good question, the offset was the solution to engrave well we say engrave but its not actually engraving the stainless steel, i believe it is just effecting the coating on top to make it black. It depends on the effect you wish to have on the steel engraving even at lower powers the lasers will char the steel. I basically discovered an acceptable image quality when i was making a marked black steel tag and forgot to offset the laser, so wanted to pass it on. Its a very fine line in power % where you will get no effect on the tag, to it burning a great big hole in it. A very informative channel is called SarbarMultimedia Russ goes indepth with the laser physics and the variables that change the quality of the beam, the punch of the power and its effects, quite fascinating.

Thank you, i look forward to discovering and sharing more

best i have is this drive.google.com/file/d/19Ksmyc8j1lIY3Q9zRU6uj9ULf0RJJDOy/view?usp=sharing

my pleasure, look forward to sharing the results, mine can always be improved

Thanks!

I would double check with the laser manufacturers notes to make sure

@@nostrodamus1980 I did

@@swflscratcher5893 i dont think it will be impossible just will take some trial and error with some cards using 100 and slowing the speed down

@@wantafastz28 thats really kind of you thank you. Happy to post what i know and learn

Thanks, unfortunately 3DSliced is only enabled for galvo lasers

@@nostrodamus1980 Do you mean the Galvo licence of Lightburn or the machine ?

@@HelloYohan sorry yes i was going to clarify that its only available on the galvo license that i can see

hahaha yeah certainly not a fun search if safesearch is off lol

yes this is at focal point

learnt from the best, you take from the well, you give back to the well

Thank you, means a lot. Im still learning but will keep posting as i go

My pleasure, not all stones will work but fun to try different types. These are sandstones from a local art and craft store

@@kreakleuter thank you. im not sure about the first question, if your asking if the machine uses any sort of z axis movement to do this. The answer is no, this was done at a fixed focus. Im sorry im not aware of ezcad being able to do this, only lightburn

@@nostrodamus1980 thnx, got it , all clear now🙏

@@kreakleuter glad i could help

@@jackwilborn2353 this light burn is one not attached to my laser as was using it just to record in OBS, yes if LB is set up correctly you'll have pulse width too but as it used the default I just left it. It is very much trial and error and in the groups I've seen brass done with nearly 4000 layers. I would say it's a project for someone like Nicky Norton who will demonstrate the differences the amount of layers make. It's still very similar to how we used to do line intervals that coincide with the nema17 motor steps but even with a fiber laser we are still using the same DPI values. There are so many variables with the fiber galvo lasers that I tend to just go with what works for me. If someone posts improvements I will certainly try them out. My posts I'm uploading to give basics for others to try and experiment with as a lot of using these machines seems to be cloaked in secrecy and not sharing the settings used. I learnt all I know from the groups so these are to show my results and how I got em. I will give 256 a go though to see if there is any difference, also would make sense to try multiples of the 256 in order to get more defined edges. It's definitely something to ponder :)

Thank you, yes the short has no audio but if you wish to know how the engrave is done, there is another full video on my channel with a walkthrough

these are sandstone rocks too, i know exactly what you mean and get them on some stones but not on others. Im not entirely sure why it happens to be honest, i think it might be something to do with air pockets within the stone

@@nostrodamus1980 I've tried using your settings,and tried lower frequency too ,trial and error as always.thanks for your quick response.keep up the great work.😎

@@jumbostattoostudio no problem, ill do an update if i find out anything further but i think its just the nature or organic materials

Thank you, im using an OMG-X 60w mopa from OMGLaser.com

@@TweakerIncorporated thank you, certainly give it a go, just remember not all stones will give same result so try different types

@@wantafastz28 my pleasure

Me either but it works

@@bearsstuff thank you, the coin stand is something i found on thingiverse and 3D printed. The laser enclosure i built from old 3D printers i nolonger used, its made of aluminium extrusion and 3mm MDF for the top half. Sitting on a frame of extrusion holding the case of the laser. Its all on wheels so i can move it around. I can certainly do a video, its cheap but keeps the fumes and dust away, add a webcam and you can watch your engravings in complete safety. The lens im currently using is 150mm.

@@spencerc4054 my pleasure, i hope to see the results

@@nostrodamus1980 I don’t know how to upload the picture. However, the project took three hours to do one side (I did a Topo map). I copied your settings and wonder if I can speed it up

@@spencerc4054 what was the size of the project? a coin black engraving shouldnt take that long at 1500mms unless your speed it set to 1500mm/m

@@jackwilborn2353 the comments section part?

thank you

everything is in the video, this will make a greyscale image but with engravings the images come out better with tweaking to the highlights and shadows for the dithering

Thank you

Thank you, a ways to go but i am enjoying posting my process. So will post more for sure

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you, yes i will give it a go, im no editing guru so could be a rough over the shoulder step by step

Thank you, yes this photo paper is really good for getting details
