In this episode, Peter learns the importance of checking your footage to see what went wrong *before* repeating the experiment
Yeah! I'm really not sure why I didn't check it. It was clear as day.
@@peterbrownwastaken But by not checking, you managed to pin a corn kernel in place for a full blast of the laser. The kernel even glowed from the laser. If that didn't make it pop, I don't think more time will matter.
Honestly, the side view of a laser harassing a piece of corn was so much funnier than it has any right to be.
*special victims unit sound*
I read this comment before I watched the video and it was a lot funnier then I expected and I've been laughing for 5 minutes
Finally, a practical solution to keeping track of what all these small little yellow things are. I can't find labelmakers that do small enough print sizes...
I loved the part where the kernel just started to glow, although it's probably not that safe.
I was rly expecting some BOOM-ing and popcorn for the aftermath haha
Next up: can the new machine pop popcorn?
Awesome! I've been looking for a better way to label all my corn.
I thought for sure the kernel would pop, so i was pleasantly surprised when it actually worked!! Keep doing experiments!!!
Ah yes the classic shop time feel: will this absolutely unsuitable substance work for this weird project idea?
Also did you ever answer if corn could be put in epoxy and if the resin would heat up enough to pop the corn?
I don't think there would be enough surrounding air to allow the kernel to expand.
I think Ben's Worx did that.
@suep9445 he did do that. I don't think the corn popped.😢
@@deejustdee1234 that's disappointing.
Now you can add micro engravings to your copper plated wood earrings, or anything that's super small and delicate. Great addition to the shop 👍🏻
have you ever seen those personalized lima bean plants? They engrave something on one side of the bean, and when it grows, the cotyledon will have the design! maybe you could try that
That was so cool! And the machine is a lot less expensive than I would've guessed. Mrs Brown - heads up - he's gonna engrave EVERYTHING now😂 much love to both of you from Oklahoma!
Really excited to see how you use this in different projects. The detail on that Vault Boy is pretty immaculate.
this is exactly the kind of content i was hoping for with the laser.
Happy fathers day Peter and thanks for answering this very important question. I will sleep better now.
That's really cool. I wonder what would happen if you tried to engrave on something fresher, like a stick of carrot or some celery.
Or if you used the machine on a piece of candy. I feel like chaos may ensue in your -laboratory- workshop with this thing. Can't wait to see your next projects~
Havent visited this channel in over a year. I love to see how much his channel has grown😁 love the energy, love the projects, cant wait to see the next video!😁
I think this might just be the very best video on UA-cam. Thank you peter you made my evening
Things like this video is why I love this channel
Always love to see unexpected fallout, gave me a good chuckle
What a resounding yes too. That Vault Boy was impressive!
Best video on Cornhub so far!
I love when you get a new toy and in exchange I get to enjoy your content
Just last week I came across a makers space at a library in my city and used a 3D printer and laser cutter for the first time. Was so cool, felt like living in the future. And the folks who helped me out were so nice, didn’t even charge me for the materials or time I spent on the laser cutter, I think because they knew I was prototyping something, idk. My new fav place right now, and finally have a reason to learn vector and 3D modeling software.
Fun! Love that camera inside your device.
I was definitely waiting for it to pop!
Hahaha,
"Yes, Thanks for watching"
Fantastic Mr.Brown👏👏
Peter is out here answering the question all of us have.
I was waiting for your corn videos! 🌽
If it could burn into a rubber or linoleum slab to make a stamp or like block printing engravings that would be another great use for it. If you use oil paint to apply it to a shirt with a quick drying medium like liquin or galkyd lite i think that’d be a good idea. You could even give away the shirts. I had this idea to share previously when you applied acrylic to the crevices for your wooden map. For block printing it is the opposite where you line the extrusions instead and use a roller to apply the paint to the stamp for printing.
“Laser etched block printing?” So to speak. The only problem I can think of is making the oil paint not thin enough to where the paint gets into the grooves and causes splotching.
Laser engravable/cuttable rubber sheets are definitely commercially available and making stamps from them is the primary use - so what you're talking about should be pretty doable
oil paint is actually toxic, so i don’t think it would be a good idea to apply it on a t-shirt, acrylic or fabric paint would be better
Check out "pad printing using a cliche"
Laser engraved master, ink is transfered onto a 'balloon' then that isused to print things like garment labels, patterns on ceramics etc.
Definitely something to try some day :)
Yep, definitely doable - I have a friend who does laser-engraved block prints. The CNC would be a better option, but the laser makes it accessible. I have done it with laser-engraved acrylic, and wiped on ink to mimic intaglio printing. I wouldn't do lino on the laser (probably toxic or something), but have done linocut on CNC.
@@colinhimi depends entirely on the pigment used and if you used additional medium like liquin. Linseed oil is used on your tables and cutting boards as a food safe finish. The cold pressed artist grade linseed oil is actually cleaner than the grade people buy for table and other food grade finishes at hardware stores. If it is a cadmium pigment (expensive) or a lead pigment (illegal in many countries) then it’ll be unsafe. Cobalt pigments are also cancer causing. Using linseed oil and a fine ground charcoal pigment on a white shirt would work fine and you could stuff the whole shirt in your mouth and probably have less of a chance of cancer than living in Kansas City.
TLDR; the only toxic thing in most oil paints is the pigments themselves.
I make my own oil paint. Trust.
The best 4 minutes of my life.
Much better than any short! Just the right length.
Didn't realize I needed this answered.
Finally, a true Peter Brown _project_ on the laser
Mad scientist Peter at it again!
I do kinda miss wood working Peter sometimes though.
That’s awesome!
That was a sick video, i love watching when you pop up, was scared the lens might be messed up from the smush but im sure its fine
Thanks for labeling it. Now it’s easy to know what kind of kernel it is 😂. Thanks for fun video!
Totally thought at least one would explode! Haha! Very neat!!! I’m sure there’s tons of potential with that laser!
Cool would have loved to see it pop
Just as the manufacturers intended! 10/10
I've recently watched some old videos and one thing I really miss is you singing while mixing resin.
Questions I never knew I needed an answer to. Part 435
😂 I was waiting for the corn to pop❤
You could do some crazy stuff with this and a glass bead. Internal etching.
I was hoping for a popping! ❤😂
Glad that you're sticking to the "Still going to do weird stuff that I find funny" right out of the gate! :D
PIPBOY! I love this channel
Providing answers to questions we didn't even know to ask
It's literally the second material I ever tried to laser, haha ❤🎉
Hahahah fabulous. Really cool that it can go so small
I would enjoy another story time, that Maya book was crazy.
I don’t know anything about this particular engraver/cutter, but my guess is that it has some kind depth/height sensing and is checking the height of the surface as the gantry moves over and because the majority of the working surface is one height, it sets the laser to that height not accounting for the possibility there’s a kernel of corn protruding from the work surface because why would there ever be a kernel of corn sticking up. But, it’s cool you got it to work, as a proof of concept anyway, given it’s a 2d design on a minuscule curved 3d surface. The resolution of the vault boy on such a small surface is impressive. Judging by the width of the laser under the magnifying glass, it looks like that’s about as small as it will go before losing all definition and becoming just a black dot
If you run the raster out of focus you can actually pop it. I’m used to vectoring on tiny food, except ginger snaps and beef jerky
Just watched a CodysLab video of him metal casting mushrooms. You should do some resin casting of mushrooms! Like make a mold then remove the mushroom then make a mushroom out of resin.
tool review: i slep
corn content: lets gooooooo
You should have done a picture of a palace. The Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota is a palace decorated with corn, so it makes sense that the reverse should also exist.
i thought you were going to end up with popcorn there ☺☺
This is great, thank you! Is it possible to run a single-click job with this accuracy where two kernels of corn are on opposite sides of the work area?
Idea, may work best at Christmas so take note, try to laser cut all the way through cds complex snow flakes or geometric patterns for an all year round thing, if it's parallel cute two out and glue the side with the print to the inside so the reflective side sticks out glimmering.
Peter brown asking the real questions.
I'm always asking this
Cool! 👍 Amazing it didn't pop!! 👏👏
😂 this strongly makes me think of what my teen would do given a laser cutter/engraver and time.
throughout the entire video I was like OMG IT'S GONNA POP!
Laser engraving corn... Onto corn!
hahahaha OMG Peter! Great video :-) I haven't "Seen you" in a while... I too bought a laser... (not an xTool) I was screaming at the screen "HEIGHT! CHECK YOUR HEIGHT!" hahaha.. That was fun. Thanks for sharing man 😀Catch you next time!!
Yay, a Fallout fan! My fav is Fallout: New Vegas and part 4.
The problem with cameras in laser machines, is that they are never accurate enough to do this kind of work. You really really have to position is manually
Ohhh, youtube weird stuff is best from Mr Peter :)
nice!
Thank you , Peter .
🐺 Loupis Canis .
i was waiting for the popcorn to pop.
I love how the xtool ad that played afterward was not nearly as compelling as peters machinations. XD
This is so cursed, and I love it.
This is stupid and I love it.
Oooo! You should try to engrave a feather!
Do rice next 😂
I'm legitimately surprised. I honestly thought they'd all just pop immediately.
I don't know who is crazier, you or your viewers! :D :D
I wonder if you put like a tiled or tessellated pattern on them if you could get them to pop in a certain way shape or form
If he could mark them so they are prescored so they break along the lines and create the perfect least-hull-possible shape of popped corn it'd be a revolution. An inefficient revolution, but that would give him an excuse to charge 29.99 for a 4 Oz bag of popped corn for those fancy folks... 😁
I heard Robert Lange had laser patents, but not for pre-scored tessellated popcorn! I need an edible, festooned party hat.
Regarding the Camera inside the laser cutter, I think it could harm the lens IF the laser refracts into it. That would only happen if it bounced off a strong, curved material. Footage from the corn cutting looks great tho :)
We had dipit. And now we have laser-it. I was kinda hoping the corn was going to turn into popcorn XD
You should do a series called "will it laser?".
Artisan popcorn, each kernel popped by laser, manually, one by one ;D
Does it work on a grain of rice?! 🤣🤣❤
3:05 not sure if corn or LED
inb4 light emitting corn display
😂 awesome 😂
I've seen some people put their names on toothpick and on rice, but I've never been able to get it turn out, but then I have a cheap neje Lazer
This video was an unexpected DELIGHT
I was expecting the cornels to pop this was interesting
How tall of a project can you work on and have full motion of your Z axis?
super fun video :)
is the laser really that loud, or does it just seem like it?
It’s pretty dang loud.
Would it be better to put in the plate, print what you want, without the corn, then move the corn to where the print was and then print again? :)
Now you can engrave something to encase in resin ;)
I was hoping it would pop
On one hand.. was thinking how cool would it be for your to pioneer "laser popped corn"....and then I was thinking....engrave "cob" (for all the right reasons) ....
😅🤣😂
I miss the wood turning videos
You can engrave things like pumpkin pie also.
I doubt they had Fallout corn on the list of expectations when sending him the unit. Hehe
Interesting kernal of information.
Can you engrav on resin that would be nice
