Thank you very much. I am very new and I am learning something everyday. This was a good video on centering. Take care and be safe in all travels and all activities.

Overall, a pretty good video showing the basics of using a jig. It would be helpful for those who want to replicate doing this to see what your project origin is set to i.e. absolute coordinates. You can also move the rectangle to a Tool Layer so it can still be used for framing without being output.

THANK YOU SIR! I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer and a lot of using my new laser is coming along at a snails pace. You solved a huge question I have been worried about-in a way that I could easily understand. Again, THANK YOU!!! Hoping to see more of your videos to help me along!

Great idea. I'm doing a bunch of coasters and I'm gonna try it. I'm thinking maybe cut like 6 holes to make several at a time.

WHERE do you find the FRAME comand in Lightburn?

This is one of the better videos on using these techniques to center an object. One thing that might work to ensure that your template is moved to the same spot every time might be to use lower power output Ie let’s say you cut the card board out. Finished your job you saved the card board and latter you want to replicate the job. Place the cars board back on the honeycomb use your saved cutout path turn the laser power down as low as you can get it, set up 3 passes you will then move the cardboard into position using the lower power output. 😁🛫

Wondering about air compressor upgrade, has the air compressor plug into machine or still in the wall power socket? Great video you have taught me something.. Hopefully laser will be here next week. Keep up the great video's 👍

Compressor is plugged in to the wall on a separate circuit from my lasers and chiller.

Can you just position your laser like that and start? Newbie here thought absolute had to be in a corner or the center tia😊
