YES or NO? xTool F1 Rolling Hard Case
Definitely a great example and how to. Thanks
Have you used saved positions in lightburn? It’s a time saver. I put a 90 degree large square top right of laser. Then bump whatever I’m engraving against it. It’s square. Then I have that saved position where my laser knows exactly where the top right corner of say the ammo box would be. Then I have a saved template of the box and boom
Nice to know you do ammo boxes. ❤❤❤❤
Hi. Thanks for the video. What would you recommend for a hobby laser to stipple polymer gun frames and basic engraving on metal.
Oh, did you engrave the ends?
What ratio of cement, sand, aggregate did you use? Thanks.
Could you do a video using the P2 to do something metal? I've been struggling with it. I've sacrificed multiple pieces (mainly rfid wallets and budiness cards) trying to dial it in and i just can't get a good result.
Sam I have found that using the cheap dollar store brand of Fabulouso works really well. I do this with my board butter tins.
Great work! How do you price these, Sam?
Hi Sam, Could you make a video of how to unfocus the P2 to get different results for engraving? I have heard it makes it darker and crisper but I have never tried it and I wouldn’t know where to start. Thank you. By the way you create really great videos.
Why not a 36k mini split.....
Salute!
Are those engraved ammo boxes for sale somewhere?
They sure are! greenacrehomestead.com :)
😅😅😅 🤝
Great video. I will say I hate seeing filler material just put on top, I cringe every time. Would rather the filler be spaced bottom and top to help even more with protection rather than just fill. I know it takes longer and that is just my personal preference from a person without a business ;)
😊Danke für das Video. Gute Idee
💖💖🙏🙏👍👍🙏🙏💖💖
How much overhang/cantilever did you use on the beams relative to the piers and floor joist relative to the beams? Thanks!
I’ve been curious of speed on that laser. For a reference, how long did that engrave take?
Good video, glad you mentioned the extra in the package. I like doing that, and adding a small wood coaster if I have them. As a Thankyou
Not to knock your jig set up, but another option is to put crosshairs on either side then use the cut and paste feature to line it up.
What about protection of the bare metal, to keep it from rusting? Suggestions?
Nice :) A thin quick coat satin clear might slow down the oxidation
Or use a hole saw if you have one
Who do you use for shipping? Do you use a shipping company and get good deals or is there a service you use that gets good deals for shipping?
Thanks Sam that was great to see that machine printing that ammo box! ….and for everyone else…..I had Sam laser my small wood shop logo on some tags so I could more professionally sign my products and I have to tell you all how professional and amazing the product was and his packaging and cards his entire process blew me away! I was expecting nice for sure but what I got was well beyond what I expected! So any one out there needing something I’m giving samcraft 10 star review! 😊
Great, informative video. Thank you.
I am so tired, but just wanted to ask if this be done with xtool 40 watt diode by chance? Sorry if you said in video, long week for me.
Harbor Freight for 50 cal boxes has been the best bang for the buck for normal day to day prices. Cabela's/Bass Outlet, when they have the 30/50 combo boxes on sale is also a decent price point as well.
While I haven't done any ammo boxes yet, it's on my list of things that I'd like to work with. I'll probably pick up a couple from Harbor Freight next time I'm over that way.
And you're spot on about the sacrificial test object.. Most customers don't realize you'll need one..
Nice!!! Love the box!
Am curious - others say to put a clear coat on after you engrave these boxes or they rust - I noticed you didn't mention it. Is that step dependent on the type of laser you use?
I was about to ask the same question. No protection from rust?
I personally put a single coat of clear matte enamel on them. Not because I've noticed rust, but as a precautionary measure.
👏
Thank you for your honest review of the SmartStitch machine! I have the ST-1201 saved to my Amazon wish list and hoping to purchase in near future.
Glad it was helpful!
I sometimes use clean used plastic grocery bags for filler.
Thanks Sam Looks great!😊
Thank you!
the beard looks great, brother! and thanks for the content. i'm still a n00b with a diode but having fun with it!
Thanks!
Sam, coincidence the first name that popped up was mine. J Richards
Yesr! ✌️💖🙏🤜
Great tutorial, Sam! Thanks! 👍👏🥰
You are so welcome!
Have you ever looked at one of those machines to make your own air pillows for shipping? I don't do any shipping but I've heard they can save you a lot of money on packing materials if you ship a lot of stuff.
May the lord bless and protect you and your family. Love your videos
Thank you so much!
Sam can you show us one on the P2? So many of us have that and the F1
I'd be interested in seeing that too.
I'd also like to the three P2 do something metal. I've been struggling to dial it in. I've wasted multiple pieces doing testing and just can't seem to get it where it needs to be.
what is the deference between a b3 and b4?
Ordered and downloaded you test file. Don't even have my xTool S1 yet!😂 It was ordered today as well👍😎
Honest and direct review. I appreciate it - very helpful. Thanks!
Does this machine support 3D puff embroidery?
It does, but so do all embroidery machines. The 3D puff is created by external processes and how the file is digitized. The machine doesn't know any different. :)
Gracias amigo
I am new to lightburn. When I use the "home" button I get a hard clunking sound which seems to throw off the positioning. The console says start_home x left limit trigged start_home y up limit trigged <MPos:0.000000,0.000000,0.000000> M28 I've tried to reset the "home" position on the 10W XTool D1 but nothing changes. Each time I change a setting and hit the home button, it clunks and shakes to get back to what it wants to use as 0,0. Firmware is up to date and latest (trial) version of Lightburn with the Xtool specific device file imported. It keeps throwing off the "home" precision which messes up anything starting from there using Absolute Coordinates. I keep looking at UA-cam, XTool, Lightburn and forums for help but I'm missing something and hoping you might know something I can try. I realize this isn't a tech support/customer service channel, but your files have been very useful, your information has been great, your channel has been a definite go-to for me, so I am hoping you might be able to help. Thank you
I have no idea about this so I am curious: wondering why 6x8 beams are not used. Is it a cost factor or is it a weight to structure problem ? THX for the video; maybe I can build onto my carport using your methods ! Be well!
