Huh?!??

You have very good presentation skills. Sometimes I think I'm watching you on TV instead of KZbin. Very professional and informative.

Great video…I am getting laser rich and money poor but HAVE to add a Thunder Bolt Pro 32 to my shop…might be an early Christmas present to me!

thank you! very informative

Do you mind to put in the settings for 1/4 in plywood when cutting and for 1/2in ply wood as well.

What a great help this is! I've been trying to find help with my 60w JPT MOPA laser and I'm struggling to find good stainless steel settings. Do you think the Lightburn library for this Aurora Lite galvo will work with my laser? Just want to make sure it's somewhat compatible before I download it into my Lightburn.

hey i just found your videos very informative thank you we have a thunder 35/100 and are going to buy the aurora lite next month .where are you in canada we are in alberta

Thanks for sharing with us Gord, it's truly amazing how they have come up with all this and put it all in that little box. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

Nice video. Why could you not do the outline engrave as a step in the original plan vs adding it after doing the 3 colors on the rose. Also any comments on why you chose the Aurora Lite over something like a Cloudray 60w MOPA (you can add a cover) I’m trying to decide between a Raycus or JpT source for same or less price vs the Thunder Hans source in this unit. I am a Thunder fan so you don’t need to sell me on that.

Oh boy, I want one!

Holy smokes! I just got a 5w diode and ordered some Basswood from Amazon. Those were so warped that I could not use them(I dont have hold down pins). I was about ready to give up on wood and stick with plastics until I came across your video. I am going to order some and try it!

That was awesome Gord. Unreal what all they and you have come up with using these Laser Systems. It's fascinating to watch you at this work. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

I’m not sure I understand about the paint. I’m still only engraving wood. By chance do you have a video of the process for painting/masking wood?

Not getting good results on my Glowforge and I hate moving my rotary on my Bolt lol but looks like I will have to to use the TruFlat! Thanks for the video.

Thank's for another great video. Justed ordered a Bolt last week. The new Bolt comes standard with a 2.5 lens. Could you share some of your 2.5 lens settings in some of your next videos. Thanks, And have a great day, Steve

I had ordered some of this a few days ago. Looking forward to using it. Thanks for the review.

Wow, SUPER useful and practical, thanks!! (New subscriber, with the bell clicked! 😁)

I need something like this for engraving keys that are indiscriminately thrown into the machine 5 to 10 at a time. Even better would be one that can also automatically increase the number on each item. Does anyone know of such a system that is under 1000 dollars? This system shown is really cool but 7400 is too much for my needs. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you feel the Bolt is the machine for the future? I am considering the XTool P2 for doing longer pieces.

Gord: have been watching all of your videos for my new Thunder Bolt Plus which is my first laser. They are fantastic. One question: your video on the PiBurn with the Bolt had a pretty good calculation of the Steps per Rotation. That number was 8020. In this video, the number you use is 8220. I did not think there would be a difference on a different machine. Can you explain how you got to using 8220 rather than 8020? Thanks

Where do you source your mirrored acrylic?

That was awesome in more ways than one Gord. Really enjoyed learning than so much more can be done with Lasers in a Home surrounding. The sentiment really tugged on the heart strings too. Stay safe up there and you all keep up the fun too. Fred.

Have you tried engraving real leather? I’m looking at the aurora due to price, since I already have a flatbed cutter I don’t need a laser cutter.

Great job!

Nice engrave Gord, just a question on the X axis - what length of engrave can it do in the Aurora Lite. The item I have is 14 5/8" long and 4 3/8" round big bullet casing. Cheers and have a great week.

Hi Gord. You wasted no time in getting the rotary question answered-thank you so much. The ring turned out great. I appreciate so much how you delve into things and get them figured out and then share with us. You are an excellent teacher.

Looks amazing!

Another fine video, thanks for your good lessons.

Great video with lots of information. My only question is why is your Apple watch upside down?

So it looks like there is a formula between the diameter of the round logo and the diameter of the cylinder being engraved. 7% for big logos (closer to the diameter of the tumbler) looks good. The smaller the logo the smaller the stretch required if at all. Thanks for this 🙌 just a quick question - on a taper, is your focal height in the middle of the logo or at the biggest diameter of the object you’re engraving?

It's amazing how you can get so much out of those little machines. Glad you are having such a great time with them Gord. I enjoy watching you have fun. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.

Thanks for a great video. Question for you. Where did you get the "Library"... was it something you created?

Thanks so much. This solved my problem so quickly... quick search and you came up first!

Hi Gord. I am enjoying your videos on the Aurora Lite. You sure are learning a lot about it. I bit the bullet and ordered one. It’s supposed to be delivered next week. I have been making some Halloween lanterns on the Bolt-purchased some designs from Etsy. I’ve made seven of the same one and then I’ll make seven Christmas lanterns. Also hope to start doing some Christmas ornaments to give as gifts sometime in the near future. I’m looking forward to being able to craft some things for Christmas on the Aurora Lite as well. Thanks for the tip on that website. It’s nice to be able to purchase some designs rather than having to design them sometimes. I see someone asked about using the Piburn Grip on the Aurora Lite. I have a RotoBoss Talon chuck rotary I bought to use with the Bolt and am wondering if it will work with the Aurora Lite. Again, thanks and bless you. Looking forward to all of your future videos, Gord.

Nice video Gord, with the Aurora lite, does your Piburn Grip fit into the machine and can engrave a round brass object that is 105mm round? If so I'll be in touch. Cheers

Hey Gord, Thanks for sharing I also bought a 60w jpt fiber laser. So I’ve been studying Lightburn and want to thank you for your knowledge and settings for your brass engravings. I’ve watched your every video and also have learned how to work acrylic through your very informative videos. Please don’t stop. Thank you brother!!

Very nice Gord. I’m liking the new machine. Combining some work with the Bolt could produce some very nice marketable items. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great week as well!

Thanks for sharing with us Gord. Thanks for the heads up on the will's and won'ts of the different machines. Keep up the great works and videos. Fred.

Good afternoon. I live in Virginia. I would like to know how are the wheels on the X- gantry holding up. Thanks, Steve

I really have enjoyed watching your videos on the Bolt. Mainly because I got my Bolt about the same time and you've been an excellent teacher. Lately with the Aurora Lite it's also been interesting. Can the Aurora Lite cut aluminum foil and really thin copper sheets? Thanks again.

Awesome Gord. Added this to our new Aurora Lite playlist!

Fantastic video Gord, amazing how they have come along with those machines for home use and business start ups. Sure did a great job on your video. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.

Do you have blank or sample template for business card you open at 5:30? That’s where I’m struggling! Trying to help my nephew make his card. Having that template even blank with box already made would be huge help! Do you have link to that template or any chance you’d be willing to email it to me?

where did you get the mask for the engraving side?

I will have to try this out! Thanks Gord

Good morning Gord Very informative.. Like I have mentioned before I am very ignorant on all of this but I find it very interesting and enjoy watching as you learn as well and the little details and insight you provide is Great.. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us.. Cheers my Friend

Curious to see how the Aurora Lite would do engraving a tumbler stationary and on a rotary/chuck 🧐

Great job Gord, that is so cool !!! Hard to believe how simple it is yet how far they have come to the SY-FI era. We will be in Houston for the next three days with out son. Will email you later. Stay safe and keep up the fun. Fred.

Good day GP, 100% full watch Sir and Man that is very nice informative video that you have done 🧐👍👌Be Well GP Cheers 🍻🍻

I've found that the thicker the glass, the worse it turns out. Try thinner glasses.
