Hi Frank, got your new laser I remember before you were approached by another laser company for there product. You had trouble with the last one and you were sent a replacement circuit board and I hoped it resolved the problem. Good to see you back, can't wait to see how you get on with this new laser. Are you on Shed Space tomorrow at 7 with Rob and Mark, it's on Weekend Shed Head Rob's channel. See you soon Take care😁👍
😁 Hi Shaun. Yep, got the new laser (AlgoLaser DIY KIT) and its looking good so far. Simular spec to my other one (Sculpfun S9), so now I have two fully working lasers 😆😆. Yep, the plan is to join in with all you great sheddies tomorrow (im around the in-laws.. ill sneak off to get my shedspace fix 😆😆). See you tomorrow mate 😁👍
@eljimmaecortez607 😁 Hi Elijimmae, the Algo laser app is quite good and convenient for quick jobs. But I do use lightburn software, which is an excellent and very capable software for more complex projects. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
Great video Frank! I have also received this laser and am currently about to start editing my video. Yours seem much more professional than mine will be 😂. I'm a complete noob with lasers so it has been a big learning curve so far. Currently on the trial version of Lightburn, but will definitely purchase the full programme.
😃 Hi Jiggsy, looking forward to watching your video 😃👍. If I could recommend anything it would be to buy the lightburn software. It just dose exactly what you need it to do and dose it really well. Thanks for watching mate 😁👍
@frankslittleworkshop yeah, I am definitely sold on lightburn. Getting more familiar with it now, though definitely still a lot to learn. Managed to do a couple of Christmas baubles to test out the cutting.
Would it engrave black rubber like used on rooftops, that kind of material? and is it possible to place it on a rubber sheet like that? And where can i buy it? Thanks :)
Nice video mate, not sure why i watched it as ive just uoloaded the same video on my channel for the exact same laser. I enjoy review tyoe videos though & yours is a great video. Mine was the same length as yours but i ended up shortening mine. For a budget laser it looks really good in my opinion. Only set mine up so far so not tested it just yet.
😁 Nice one Dave, ill check out yours later. I've only used mine very quickly so far and it appears to work well. Think I need to give it a good testing 😁. Thanks for watching Dave 😁👍
Hey Frank.....So..... looking forward to the using of the laser....does one have to buy a "programme" for the laptop or does it come with a programme to do some design/engraving etc? Im still toying with the idea of getting one and cheap is always appealing! cheers for the video and the content....
😁 Hi Adam. I use Lightburn software. You do need to buy it, but it is probably the best thing to get. You can get some free GRBL software but I prefer Lightburn. There is an APP that should work with the AlgoLaser DIY KIT which I plan on trying in the next video (hopefully it will work OK). Thanks for watching 😁 👍
😁 Hi Jeriecoh, yes it can cut. But it is only a 5.5W laser so it is quite limited. I have cut up to 4.6mm ply wood, but it takes about 4 passes at about 90%. Its great for cutting other materials like paper / card / foam etc but its best at engraving. If you want to do more cutting I would suggest at least a 10W laser. Hope that helps 😁. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
Thank you Sr 👍
😁 You are very welcome. I hope you enjoyed the video. It's a very useful laser at a good price. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
Very nice video my friend. You are a natural instructor, and you even make an old clown like me feel confident that I could set up a laser. 🤡👍
Thanks Chris, I'm sure you would have no trouble at all setting this one up. It must be easy if I can do it 😆. Thanks for watching mate 😁👍
Hi Frank, thank you for your great video!
😁 You are more than welcome. There will be more videos on the way soon. Thanks again for a great product and thanks for watching 😁👍
