I'm glad I found this channel. Most the youtube channels content are focus on selling. Leaning towards a CO2 being my first laser. Just have not decided on the which one. So, I going to spend sometime going through your catalog of videos.
We try to cover a healthy mix of everything, from projects and operation of the machines, processes, business stuff, hardware and machines themselves, and everything. We do our best to keep a good balance! We talk a lot about different Co2's across a lot of videos and podcasts/lives, but we also have some links to the ones we discussed/tested on our website on the buying guide we made in case that may help (some of them may be affiliate links which would support our projects and what our team does, but if you don't want to use the links, we totally understand)
I am new here but I have been pricing and Epilog has machines starting around 7900.00. Not a monster but safety wise which is not mentioned much on the low priced machines is on top. Have not seen that so much on the China built products. As far as this site goes just listening to yall talking is making my brain hurt with all the new things I am learning. So Thanks.
It's a lot to start but you'll progress fast! 😊
This is an amazing informative video.
I'm needing to engrave stay bless and polymer as an FFL. Any suggestions? I'm leaning 30w fiber but what kind?
We ran a 30w fiber for years for our business and it's been great. Polymers don't require a lot of power, but if you're looking to deep engrave designs on steel a lot, maybe a 50w JPT would be a good upgrade to help speed things up a bit. The wide frequency range of the JPT can help a lot with tuning gentle materials as well, but 30w is a good. We have links to a lot of great options on our buying guide on the website if that helps.
Looking to buy specifically for Baseball/Softball glove engraving. Must be portable and easy to use. What would you recommend? Budget under 4K.
First time listening, very informative guys,. l'm ooking at buying my first laser in the next month or so, just seeing if I should up my budget from and Atomstack A20 Pro to a EM-Smart fiber one
As you'll hear us say many times as you listen to the podcast, they're different tools for different jobs. You can get diode lasers pretty inexpensively. If you're considering a diode laser you should definitely get one whether you're going to get a fiber or not! They're capable of very different things and would work great side by side. Thanks for listening to the show, we're glad to have you around!
Thank you for your valuable information. I would like to consult you about buying a fiber laser machine for cutting silver and gold. I want to buy from the machine from America. Where can I find these machines in the United States? The prices are somewhat appropriate, as the prices on Amazon are slightly high
I'm in the market for a fiber laser that can engrave Silver, Gold and steel mostly. I have seen a Mopa jpt 80w laser engraver, laserpecker 4 and xtool f1. Out of these, which one would work best on the materials?
I’m still waiting for that glock stipple tutorial🥲🥲
It's on the list!
I need to purchase a laser that will do glass and wood. Medium Budget. Beginner, plug and play sounds best. Currently using a LaserStar Fiber Laser with what appears to be EZCAD 2. Starting a business. Any suggestions?
Check out our Mira 9 review and then look that it's little siblings the Mira 5 and Mira 7. Closer to a low budget option, all in one and certainly plug and play. Should be a good place to start. Alternatively you could check out our Light Object tour video we just published. In it we talk about the Ranger III which is being delivered to the shop tomorrow and is VERY promising looking. Solid medium on the budget scale and they appear to be about as plug and play as you can get. Will be updating on the channel.
Thanks for sharing ;-)
Thanks for the visit
hey i'm luc a small month i bought a neje 3 max for my hobby.ik make model building and houses and stuff.
Awesome! We would love to see some of the projects you've made!
So I have never owed a laser. I’m getting into engraving gun parts medal , hard plastic etc. I’m a handy guy. Budget is 4k help a recommendation!! Thanks
Kyle is preparing to review a portable budget machine that runs a 30w Raycus which could be an option for you, so keep an eye out for that. Alternatively check out the EM-Smart review we did on the channel not too long ago. It's not my favorite company in the world but the machines themselves are pretty good and will get you going. $4K is a tight budget. Shop with care. Easy to get shafted in that price range.
@@LaserEverything I’ve seen Cloudray fiber laser 30w for around 4k that’s what I’m looking into. Thanks again.
Beware the cloudray lasers ship with terrible power supplies. We've gotten more complaints about their units than anything else this year.
@@LaserEverything can you recommend another brand.
We can recommend a few actually. Check out our buying guide at www.lasereverything.net/buying guide/ they are all lasers we've had our hands on and reviewed. Even if the specific models aren't in your budget, they all have offerings that should fit in your price range.
hello, did you ever tried one of these camera software for ezcad2? im searching for one, jcz guy tried to sell me the camera for 3500 USD, but its more expensive than the 30w machine it self lol, after some very serious search an profissional told me they use very cheap cameras from aliexspress and open source software, but i could not find it, did you ever tried these things? i really want to test on my own machine, but 3500 USD for software is very expensive for an hobby
Lightburn supports Lightburn camera!
Yaaass, I have been reeeling over which one to get that will actually carve into colled rolled steel, only 1/8" depth! I dont see what the big deal is 🙄lol 🤯😅
Come back on Thursday, we'll be doing another stream with viewer call ins on the same topic!
@@LaserEverything ok, Sounds like the fiber lasers kinda got skipped over....?
what time? I have to register my son at school at 2 here in Idaho
@@LaserEverything I missed it 🫣
My Omtech 50 watt was $4,000
This was filmed in 2022 so prices may have changed!
@@LaserEverything I did learn from one of your videos that the factory focus setting was actually 4mm too high! No wonder a lot of stuff wasn’t coming out right
1:06:18 F it we'll do it live!
What laser machine for beginners should I bought? 🙏

Definitely mentioned you guys! Wouldn't leave you out! Viewer call in episode on this topic on Thursday, swing by would love to chat!
@@LaserEverything sweet. i think grant replied to your email awhile back. we'd love to put you in front of a thunder for sure :) i will look forward to info on thursday's event! thanks
I have a omtech and haven't had any issues. I totally disagree with this guy he bought a eBay laser. eBay vs omtech are completely different. Just my 2 cents.
Great stream ❤️
Great audience! ⚡
