Mind-bogglingly impressive.
 
Hi mate,

Good find for the money :D

However, I'm just gonna put my health and safety hat on for a min

I work with lasers daily, similar to yours in the way it works, just with a larger cutting bed etc. And I gotta say, I was amazed/scared/shocked how the laser still worked when you opened the lid and put your camera in there.

This is a massive no no, and I can only assume something is set up wrong. You'll probably find that the plastic lid is produced to stop any 'leaks' that bounce off, so dont open the lid in use. The ones I use are triggered to stop cutting if the lid opens even fractionally.

So, if you like your eyes - dont do it.

.....*removes hat

On another note - I take requests :)
 
So so awesome :)

The best thing is you have something in your house where you have a dial to set the "Laser Power" That alone, makes this amazingly cool :D

Howdy.

Yup there are no interlocks on the doors! There is a port on the MB for these, but until I get the password from the factory, I cannot activate them.

I will try to wire up some micro switches to the pause trigger.

Don't forget this is a Chinese made machine, and literally fell apart as I was dismantling it. When it was engraving the main bed nuts would rotate and fall off!
 
What happens to Bacon? Does it cook? Low power + Bacon = cooked bacon? We can only dream.

PIZZA! Can it cut (slice) pizza?

Could you use it to cut through frozen foods such as frozen bacon when a knife just doesn't.. Well.. Cut it.

Ohhhh the possibilities! I want one bad now! haha.
 
Haha epic stuff! Crazy what a bit of know-how and some elbow grease will achieve eh? :cool:

Almost as good as your kittens thread :D
