Thanks for sharing your videos with us. My first laser was a Longer Ray 10 watt. I never planned to be a laser guy but just to have something to engrave things I turned on my lathe. The Longer, nearly a year later is still doing what I need it to do but I have begun to do more with the laser than any other wood working tools in mt shop. I do however wish the air assist nozzle had a smaller hole but it works. I buy 3mm plywood from Amazon and several don't like to be cut and the brand that cuts like butter is no available now. It cuts with 300mm/min @100% power. Who knew laser cutting/engraving would be so much fun.
Have you figured out what the "adjustment" % settings are for yet? On the touch screen control panel under adjustments it says 50 % & 3%. I'm having trouble finding out what these settings are for. I have the same Ray5 10 watt as well but I'm unsure if I'm getting the most out of it due to not knowing what that setting is for. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just bought the laser noob burn test file off Etsy for lightburn and I want to make sure I have all the settings right first.
I will be doing some work with the ray5 next weekend, but the panel is (should) only be from burning from the SD card. Any lightburn settings "should" override the touch screen if you are using lightburn to run the project.
