Basic PiBurn Grip Setup & Operation (Great for the Beginner)
Вставка

- In this video I cover how to setup your PiBurn Grip, how to use and operate the Chuck, some tips and tricks I’ve learned after using it for a while. We generate the template in lightburn and engrave my logo on a Jds 20 oz tumbler. This video is intended for the beginner that may not have used ther PiBurn yet.
Note: if your doing full wraps or engraving graphics towards the top of the tumbler you don’t want to fully extend the stops as shown in this video, you could have a head collision with the laser head going past the tumbler stops.

Thanks Robert ~ I appreciate you taking the time to share this. Your videos are always so helpful!
**Quick note for Thunder Laser owners who received their Grip after December 2022: check out the manual (page 20) for updates on steps per rotation (and your dipstick configuration). Looks like the default dipstick configuration has been changed to match up to 8000 steps per rotation for Thunder machines**
thank you for the heads up, I was made aware of the change and put it in the description of this video. I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching.
Another amazing video that helps people. Thank you Robert. We appreciate all you do.
Stan thank you very much for your contribution. I really appreciate it.
Great video, Robert! Anyone new to the PiBurn Grip should watch it. 👍
Thanks 👍
Thank you for the video, super useful and gave me some confidence to go do my first rotary job!
glad it helped!
Great video easy to follow, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Great video! Thank you!
You are welcome!
Thank you! I’m about to order mine.
Hope you like it!, the grip is the way to go in my opinion.
Thank you very much!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks Robert!
appreciate the comment, thanks for watching
This is the best video on this grip on UA-cam. Thank you Robert. Appreciate your tutorials for the community. Also, you took the screws out of the sides of the grip and put back on the screw knobs on the sides but never put the screws back in. Should we keep those screws out for easy tumbler alignment? This way I can easily unthread the knobs and tilt the grip when needed?
thank you for your comments. I leave the small screws out because my grip is rarely level. lol
@@computercreationzI think I will do the same because I noticed that once I get my cup on and the cup leveled using the raise up and down part towards the bottom of the cup, it removed half the cup from the grip so when it’s time to spin. It falls off easily. I think the only way to really fix that is to do what you did, and that to level the grip itself.
Great video! Thanks. When you remove the screws to level, do you leave those out since it would need to be done for every job? Also, do you need to enter diameter every time? With the 4.0, I rely just in template size. Thanks
yes I leave them out.
loved the video. Did you put the small screws back in after you leveled the tumbler? Thank you ☺
no I left the silver screws out because I do allot of other items that require greater movement of the grip head. thanks for the question
Thank you so much. Where can I find one of those handy dandy levels that fit on round objects?
Any hardware store or Amazon they are called line levels there used for construction!
Great video on how the Grip works, any pros & cons vs the standard PiBurn & Grip?
Both work very well, if your just going to do basic engraving the rotary works great of you get into allot of different kind of tumblers and unique items the Grip is the way to go. I’ve engrave items from 6” baseball bats to 1 gallon Rtic jugs and I don’t even hav ego change the steps per rotation.
@@computercreationz Thanks
My grip comes tomorrow!!!
Congrats, you will love it!
@@computercreationz thanks buddy, I’ll definitely be watching your videos for sure
I used the steps calculated from the manual and my diameter is set correctly. But I'm getting a really stretched image. I can lower the steps and it's perfect but with some larger objects I get skipped lines even with a very low LPI like 0.03. Any tips?
there is definitely lots of variables here
Do you use the magnetic base to prevent moving?
Yes the magnetic feet really help
I have a question about hiring you to help us understand our laser and lightburn software. Can we message somewhere else?
you can reach me through my Facebook business page with the same name as my channel Computer Creationz
Mine does not have the little toggle pad or information about steps per rotation
hmm sorry to hear that !
@@computercreationz i got mine last month, so I called them and the new grips shipping out don’t have it.
