I learn something from every single video you produce. I just assumed once my steps were calculated I never needed to change them. Luckily I have not had any issues with this yet. And after this video, I hopefully will never have one. Thanks for the "preventative education" today!
@@shawnbrown8995 air assist is used for cutting only there really isn’t anything to blow away when engraving a tumbler. If you use air when engraving a tumbler you just blow all that vaporized material all over your laser that you have to clean later
I may have missed it but how exactly did you "calculate" your steps using the smaller neck? I just got my Pi Burn 4.0 with the add-on chuck and have never run a Rotary on my Boss Laser. I subscribed to your channel and have learned a lot. Thank you.
I would refer on how the steps are calculated on the pi burn web site. There is allot of ways to do it. Because what is setting on the drive wheels on the rotary is a different diameter than you engraving area steps must be recalculated \
Thanks for your detailed explanation. I noticed in your previous videos you used the Thunder RotoBoss. Can you share the differences or the pros and cons of each one. I'm am considering purchasing a laser and am leaning towards Thunder. I want to also get a rotory with it, so I have to decide which rotory to purchase. Thanks for your help.
there both about the same cost, I gravitate to the piBurn it’s more streamlined and has a lower profile that the full Rotoboss. as far as performance they both work very well.
I'm looking to buy a thunder nova 24 and piburn rotary and want to be able to do 1 gallon water bottles. Are you still using the 24" bed or is this a larger machine now? If it is larger do you know if it would fit in the 24" model?
yes you can you will need to remove the honeycomb and the slat bars and build up from the bottom. I would highly consider the piBurn grip. it works fantastic on large tumblers like that. I sold my 24 some time ago and have a 35-100 now. I reached out to someone that has the 24 and the grip to answer your question.
Great key tip at 9:50! Thank you always learning from you
I always appreciate you Michael!
Thank you so much! We were just talking about needing more info on steps per rotation! Love your video..so informative!
Glad it was helpful!

appreciate your comments!
It would be awesome if you could do a video on the various lenses. I didn't realize you could use a third party lens with the Thunder.
thanks for the suggestion
Thanks!

Glad to hear it, thank you for watching!
Great video my friend
Thank you Dan!
Great informative video. Thank you for explaining. I do have a question? Why do you turn off the air assist? I’m still learning on my laser.
Be sure your air assist button is in the off position in lightburn
@@computercreationz okay. But can you explain the reason why this needs to be done.

@@computercreationz Thank you. Keep the videos coming!👃
Great information! Thank you!
Our pleasure!
What dpi do you use? I always enjoy watching your informative articles.
318 for all tumblers
Thankyou.
Do you always defocus to 11 mm when engraving or just with tumblers? Great video as usual I really appreciate it 👍
When I engrave I’m de focusing most of the time. Normal focus on this lens is 10.5
Very informative. Where do you recommend to purchase a piburn? I think I want one now:)

Shouldn't you wipe those rollers after each one?
I don’t, no need to the only time I wipe my rollers is when I use ceramark spray, what out get on them?
