You can laser just about anything but be careful about dangerous materials. Lasering PVC emits pure chlorine gas. Lasering ABS plastic emits cyanide gas.
Hi Sarah, I bought an LP 2 a few weeks ago, to make things to sell at craft fairs I attend, and love it. The biggest downfall is the total lack of instructions regarding settings for different projects. This video and the one on cutting with the LP 2 have given me more information than any other I have watched. Thank you so much and I will be watching the rest of the Playlist. I have subscribed and hit the bell so looking forward to seeing your other videos. Take care Sarah and I hope you and you family have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. Cheers, Huw
Hi, it’s fairly quick, obviously depending if it’s eg 40mm wide or 100mm but LP are much quicker than my flat bed lasers. My preference for engraving on metal is a powder coated metal so you really get a contrast and the design stands out more. But I have etched metal for a few other uses, I must get round to putting a video together, thanks and good luck
I made that when I first started using it and it’s not essential as you can easily use the framing beam, to make this I engraved a square, each time increasing in size at the required intervals, thanks
Just discoverd the LP2 and want one! Your video is very informative and so inspiring! Can you use this in your home or does it give off too much odor or unsafe gases?? Ive heard and seen that the bigger kader machines need to be enclosed and vented ourside. I would want to use this inside my house or other enclosed rooms.
I prefer to use this outside as yes it does create fumes. Take a look at my video with the xTool F1, I use it in my home with the air purifier: ua-cam.com/video/gtXJGqJmRxU/v-deo.html Laser www.xtool.com/products/xtool-f1?ref=zZ1xJxidcQmE7h&
This makes me remember discovering what a Magic Marker could do back when I was five years old. I put my name on everything in the house. Got a memorable punishment out of it.
Do you have the settings for LP4 for stainless steel? I can’t center it, is there a guide for centering? Also, can we safely see the blue preview square without glasses or no? And the red dots ? Thanks! I’m new to this.

Hi this is lovely presentation. unfortunately my LP2 app screen looks nothing like yours also i do not have any material presets as on yours....are you using an LP pro or have you managed to upgrade your software in some way. the images included with my machine and the software options seem very limited
Hi John, it will all come right soon I am sure and find a way around everything. Strange that the interface is different. Although with my new LP4 some of it is now in Chinese on my new mobile that I use with the app. Changes that will soon be ironed out by LP I am sure. The image library can easily be added to, either create them and import to device photo library or search for things on the web and save to photos and there you have a large range to use. If you don’t have the presets then I’d do a few tests and then write these down to be able to repeat next time. Thanks for watching and more coming soon, all the best, let me know how it goes, Sarah
Thanks for the plethora of useful tips, although I personally prefer labelling with my LP1, it's much easier to hold, using the included tripod for levelling and maintaining correct height. I find the LP2 is a bit of a dead weight when engraving anything in a vertical orientation for any length of time. Or maybe I'm just getting too old. 😉
I get that, I don’t have the LP1 so can’t compare. I now have the LP4 which is fab but bigger again. I see they are also bringing out another LX1! Thanks
If you can get it to not burn through the card stock, so a super light setting I would try it, but the work area is only 10X10cm I think would be better other options than for printing on card. It would make some alternative invitations from some little squares of wood well
www.laserpecker.net/?parent_user_id=13210205& is the website, I can’t find any reviews on there, they’ve always got back to me quickly when I’ve got in touch. It seems people who preorder sometimes have to wait a while for the new product to arrive but other than that I haven’t had a problem, I always say go with your gut feeling, thanks, Sarah
@@RedRockingBird Hi Sarah. Thanks for your fast reply! I guess I'm somewhat over-cautious/suspicious when dealing with overseas businesses, especially Chinese ones, having had bad experiences in the past. I certainly like the look of the product, and have seen nothing but excellent reviews of it, praising both it's abilities and build quality. I just need to push past my natural cynicism and suspicious nature, and go for it! Was it actually China you purchased yours from, or via a third-party? 😀👍
@@Jer0867 hi, laserpecker actually sent me this to make the video, I know what you mean as it is a lot of money, I’m sure you can buy this on Amazon too, I’ll find the link
@@Jer0867 being suspicious of nothing but positive reviews, when the people doing the review get the product for free and a percentage off the product you buy based off of their review, seems like a smart way to go through life.😉 Not something to push aside.
Please nobody buy this overpriced piece of nonsense. You can buy a laser engraver that will engrave 12 x 12 inches for under half the price. Just look for the 3018 CNC. It will cut too.
I appreciate where you are coming from, it is very expensive yes, I find it a lot of fun, but for my more 'sensible' , for want of a better word, projects, I do love my xTool D1
If you were my mum and told me a bedtime story I'd be asleep in no time at all - your voice is so soothing.
Glad you enjoy, thanks 😊
Finally I found a girl who did a video on this item… Girls have different ideas then guys when it comes to gift 🎁 giving so thank you for this video
yay, thank you
When you said you would engrave everything you could find, you were not lying!! LOVED EVERY BIT OF IT hahaha
😂😁 just make sure it’s nothing that can give off harmful gases, so nothing with PVC etc Thanks for watching 😊
You can laser just about anything but be careful about dangerous materials. Lasering PVC emits pure chlorine gas. Lasering ABS plastic emits cyanide gas.

I cant watch your laser printer videos because after i feel i cant live without one!
This is a really fun one, let’s hope the price comes down of this one, thanks 😊

You have a nice voice to listen to
Thank you, that’s lovely to hear 😊
Hi Sarah, I was curious about the time it would take to engrave phrases like "Love You Forever" or "Best Mother" on stainless steel.

@@RedRockingBird Thank you for replying so fast ❤
My hubby is looking for one to do laser engraving on bottles and glass.can it be used for that x
It sure can, link to product in video description
This is a game changer!! Thank you for the tips and info. I have always wanted to make rubber stamps.
It’s a fab product. Just make sure you use all the correct protective equipment and work in a well ventilated area
Some great ideas, thank you.
Thank you
Ooh another great product! Looking forward to your comparison video. Will have to save up though!!
With time the prices will all come down hopefully too. Thank you 😊
Thank you reqlly helpful, do you have a guide on how to make the template uou use to get things central?

Very intriguing product. Thanks for sharing. 😀
It really is fab, so much fun and quite a different take on flat bed desktop lasers 😁❤️
Wow! That’s an amazing product! Thanks for the demo! Looking forward to your next clay project! 😁👍🏻❤️
It really is, I love it. Lots more air dry clay videos coming soon too ❤️
Thank you 😊

I use procreate, thanks for watching
Hi great video but can you ingrave on a silicone wrist band
I’ve seen people engrave on silicone, I must try too
Yes please do a video on it thank you
What an incredible bit of kit! I'm very intrigued but haven't dared look at the price yet! Think it's going on my wish list tho... 👍
It’s super, really fun, a bit pricey I know🙈

Thank you, hopefully you can see I LOVE this product 😍❤️
@@RedRockingBird I've got one myself and I love it, too😄
@@yy502 amazing, what do you like creating on it most of all? 😁
@@RedRockingBird mostly to customise some personal stuff. my kid loves me engraving his name on all of his water bottles and stationaries 😆
@@yy502 excellent, it’s so easy to use, keep enjoying 😊
Loved this video! Thank you! I need a Laser Pecker 2 🥰
It is a lot of fun, I am just filming another video where I am experimenting cutting with the laser pecker 2, out soon, thank you 😊
Great video, good ideas. Wish I could get someone to send me suggested settings for things
I put settings in video didn’t I? I usually do
How safe and healthy and like recommended it is to laser on food, so as my question is to work lens I can laser every type of food for my customers
Not every type of food will laser and I suggest anyone wanting to do this for non personal use does their own research before doing this.
I am obsessed ❤️😍 this is also great for making labels 🤩
It’s amazing isn’t it, yes definitely, so many great applications, thanks 😊
Can you print logos from this like Mercedes’ and Audi logos or is it limited what you can print
Any image that you can import into the ap you can use, so on my phone I save the logo or image in my pictures, I can then use this yes.
You really gave me so many ideas!!!!
Yay that’s great, new video out with this tomorrow 😊 thanks for watching
Wow!!! Love this!!!❤️❤️❤️
It’s really fun isn’t it, super quick and easy to use too. Thank you 😊
Omg love it just think it’s fab but way out of my price may have to save up
It is a bit pricey, hopefully reduce over time, such a fun tool 😊
Are those clips of it engraving in real time or sped up?
the majority are real time, it's faster than most flat bed lasers

Thank you, that’s so nice of you to say. You will enjoy it I’m sure, it’s so fun but so practical too. As you see…I love it , enjoy
Fantastic video! Does this laser happen to work well on sterling silver?
Thanks, I’ve not actually tried silver yet
Does one need 3rd party software to for own designs or does this engraver allow you to use theirs?
So to make this work you need to use the laser pecker app, you can import any design of your choice into the app to create anything you wish. Thanks
@@RedRockingBird Thanks so very much! I think that was the last thing I needed to know, to make up my mind!
Does the app require wifi?
Does this do invitations?
If you can get it to not burn through the card stock, so a super light setting I would try it, but the work area is only 10X10cm I think would be better other options than for printing on card.
It would make some alternative invitations from some little squares of wood well
Shame it doesn’t do resin as would love this then x
I have a little project that I am doing with he laser and filled resin 😍
@@RedRockingBird oh great thank you x
@@vivienne3757 so many projects on the go 😂
How much import tax did you pay? looking to invest in one but don't want any surprises...i'm uk.
Think you do have to pay import tax, this was taken care of for me so I am not sure
good video
Thanks for the visit
DO you need to be online for the app to work?
No I don’t think so, just power
Thanks, after watching your video I just bought one, but then looking at the reviews of the app, made me nervous
@@F1lasers hopefully all will be great and you’ll love it as much as I do, enjoy, let me know how you get on
@@F1lasers how have you found the app?
@@lukeorgan9605 it was ok, but with a few glitches every now and then, it would randomly have different presets for wood etc.
Where to buy this product
www.laserpecker.net/?parent_user_id=13210205& thanks
can you engrave a glass vase
You can yes, in this one I did the blue perfume bottle
How do you import your own designs (different formats other than photo) into the app?
If you can save the file to your library you should be able to use it from there, is that helpful? Thanks
would have been nice if the laser settings were included.
some of the settings are in the video and I selected the set parameters on the laser pecker a lot of the time
The link to their website seems dubious; when clicking on "Reviews", nothing shows, which I find suspicious.

It made me laugh how it started on regular support but soon, it goes to eggs, fruit and fondant. 😄
😂 I could have gone on and on, but you get the picture 😂 thanks ❤️
Christmas stockings
Definitely should make some
Amazing tool. Just happened to look it up - it's so expensive!
It is at the moment, hopefully with time it’ll continue down. Thanks 😊
❤️❤️❤️
😊 thank you
You know you can move the start point
Thanks, it's a fab tool isn't it
please tell us you have your safety glasses on while filming this? these non-enclosed diode lasers are more dangerous than these manufactures give off
most definitely, always ,and i look away while its working. Thanks ❤
I really want it but I don't have the money
hopefully with time the price will come down further
You should like me if it stands still it would be done
Oh it’s amazing isn’t it, I just love it 😊
The engravings look like its less than 100 dpi and they are very edgy. A K40 will perform better in my eyes.
I love my xTool D1 for more accurate jobs too, but I also think this laser is a lot of fun and my go-to for my quick projects, thanks
