I mainly do ozark trail tumblers, I did a coupon test on ozarks and I always got that little bit of residue left over. Didn't matter how much power, speed is used but the amount of residue does...
The Job control software is different. Not saying the it's a 7,200 difference though
Ozarks are hit and miss for the paper mishap.
If I don't get a clean removal, I run that section of cup under hot water for 5-10 seconds then take a wet wash cloth and wipe with medium force over...
I had someone ask me to do a waveform for them. They supplied the wood, stained it and most importantly the waveform.
I believe the wood is Alder, it measures 31" x 10.5" x.75", He used an Ebony...
They wanted it natural, so there is poly on it.
Although I am nowhere near the level of many of the people on this forum, I am always inspired on what I see in here. I have made a couple simple looking signs for friends and family.
I'm using...
I tried Denatured alcohol, lacquer thinner, pure simple green concentrate windex with no change. I'll have to pick up some fingernail polish remover and see what that does.
Hey everyone, I've done a couple Powder Coated Yeti's and Ozark Trails and even through the P.C. finish is different I still get the same results. I always get a color haze left over on the...
I would also recommend contacting the dealers as well and see if they have a demo day or go to a show and bring some samples to do. Recently Trotec came to a conference room at a hotel about an...
Received an email from Adam Norton @ ULS and he said it should be approximately 2". He also sent me a document on calibrating the focus which is very similar to what Kev Williams suggested.
I...
VLS2.3, I worked at a place that had the same machine and I remember the white pole piece was not flush with the black base. Mine is flush but I didn't think anything of it as it was different...
see, mine is 1.668 from the bottom of the base to where the chamfer starts. This makes me believe it's not set correctly. If this is off, then it explains some of the issues I've been having.
I don't remember where but I found a document somewhere that showed the actual measurement of the focus tool and how to verify that it is in focus. For the life of me I can not find it
Can any...
yes, it feels good to get this far. The imagine density was set at 4, I wanted to start low and work my way up if needed. I may still do another sample group with less varition in setting but try...
Hey guys, I got a piece of stainless from work and decided to do a coupon test
I did a test consisting below
speeds: 30, 25, 20, 15, 10
PPI: 1000, 800, 700, 600
imagine density 4 (even though...
The more I think about it, I think my problem before was applying cermark on to thick. I was getting runs in the cermark.
I did get some scrap pieces of stainless at work today. Although they are...
I've learned that lesson the hard way. I did go out and buy 2 cheap yeti knock offs from walmart for 9.75 a piece but I will get me some scrap...thats a good idea
Actually it was 3 hour...
First off, thank you everyone for all the help, I honestly didn't think it would be this difficult to do things with cermark. I'm lasering a new one right now, its looking like a at least an hour and...
I've been experimenting with cermark on a yeti cup and I'm it's rubbing off. I'm using a 30watt VLS2.3 and before I sprayed on the cermark from the spray can I cleaned the surface with isopropyl...
@Matt McCoy
I was concerned about that as well but I went outside while I was doing some wood. The velocity the smoke is coming out of the port outside, it's not really effecting it. I was...
Yes the slot goes into the box, the box is vented to the outside. One blast gate is exhaust out, the other is the intake air coming in.
@kevin Williams @John Lifer
The slot I cut into the top is in both sides of the box, granted not equally but I was say 70/30. There is air flow coming from that side through the slot. I think the...
Here is the window side of it (I'll add some more info to these later, its getting late for me)

Hello everyone, I recently decided to purchase a used VLS 2.3 for a home hobby. After reading ideas on the forum I decided I wanted to try to make something that would be fairly quiet, safe for the...
