Create Stunning Laser Cut Nameplate Jewelry Like a Pro! (5 Step Crash Course)

I now understand the purpose of wobble. Good job explaining it.

[@justinlaser]

Awesome! Its a great feature for sure.

[@johnnyspropshop]

Nice explanation, yes a full tutorial would be great.

[@justinlaser]

Noted! Appreciate it.

[@Lets-Make-Stuff]

Fantastic job and explanation!

[@nerored6235]

Really enjoyed this. I'd love to see a more detailed review of setting up your pattern, especially since I saw in the comments that you adjusted it's size for the laser's wobble.

[@justinlaser]

Awesome noted! Yeah I forgot to mention thats why I thickened up the stroke in the video.

[@nerored6235]

@@justinlaser also, what do you do with all the tiny leavings, such as the inside of the O. I'm certain you don't waste them.

[@gear_ant]

great video. Nice explanation of wobble. I do have one question, though. Does wobble happen on the inside of the cut, or the outside?

[@justinlaser]

This Im not sure. Might be a little of both. It does affect the thickness of your end piece though. I forgot to mention thats why I thickened up the text during the design phase. I knew the wobble cutting was going to eat a little bit of it.

[@mhernandezae86]

A step by step tutorial would be greatly appreciated. Will these cut settings work on brass and where do inget a plate holder?!

[@OMGLaser]

That's very helpful! Thanks for sharing.

[@justinlaser]

Thanks Richard!

Great video! With your 50w, what was the time to cut that out? I bought the Ultra to do metal work proof of concept, while still using it for my current woodwork. Knowing that it would take significantly more time than a more powerful one. Knives and coins have seen a bit of interest, so at the first of the year I will be upgrading.

[@justinlaser]

Thanks! With my 60w this took about 15 minutes. Ultra a great way to get started with metal engraving especially if you dont need crazy depth.

[@ShivShaktiEtchTech]

please Send rate how much thickness will cut maximum

[@rerikm]

wobble baby wobble 😂 . it's been ages since I heard that word

[@sekhalamgir9519]

How much time did it took please tell I have a 60 watt laser fibre I need some settings please

[@Tater_Poutine]

Great video..

[@justinlaser]

Thank you!

[@AceDaPig]

Which necklace did you use for your name plate? Are there some available from rio grande too that are easy to attach once you make the name pendant?

[@justinlaser]

The one in the photo is a cheap-o stainless steel "necklace kit" from Amazon with some 4mm jump rings. I ordered a real sterling silver name plate chain from an Etsy seller which I will swap out when it arrives. I didnt check to see what Rio Grande has for necklace blanks but Im sure they would be more knowledgeable on the subject than I am.

[@AceDaPig]

@@justinlaser much appreciated! I signed up months ago on their website but hadn’t spoken with them yet. I’ll give it a shot, thank you for all your amazing guides!

[@kyleb9281]

Can you share the settings you used to get the engraving done, when I do engraving it always stays black I can’t polish it out it would seem it’s like it’s burned in

[@justinlaser]

What kind of laser were you using?

[@ShivShaktiEtchTech]

which Merial Use This metal

[@Luna-fn1wx]

Thank you for the video, can you cut stainless steel?

[@justinlaser]

Absolutely! Have to think about rust prevention once you break through the surface unless its top quality stainless.

[@ShivShaktiEtchTech]

Please Send same machine catalog with price in India

[@watchingyoutubeat]

Wow🎉🎉

[@justinlaser]

🙌🙌🙌

[@kraving8692]

Do you think you would you be able to cut 1mm or thicker with this laser?

[@justinlaser]

Yes Ive seen people do around 3mm. Once you get past that range you need to adjust your focus or have a dynamic z-axis head.

[@3ch1dna07]

What's the difference between fiber laser, diode laser, and co2 laser? My husband is more familiar with this, but I have never heard him mention a fiber laser, so I'm very curious.

[@justinlaser]

Many differences but the main difference is the laser wavelength. The wavelength of a fiber laser is needed when engraving or cutting metal.

[@3ch1dna07]

@justinlaser so, it's more expensive than a co2? My husband wants a co2 so bad, but the cost is the biggest problem so far.

[@nerored6235]

With CO2 and higher power diode lasers you can get a bit of an etching effect, it's just surface level and you have to coat the surface on metal, typically anodized. The higher power diode lasers will cut thin metal but usually heat it to the point that it warps the metal. Fiber lasers will do a deep engraving and cutting on most metal without any coating. I've been recently considering getting into laser and even CNC engraving as a side job, so I've been learning quite a bit. And yes, a decent powered fiber laser will cost quite a bit but they can be comparable to the lower range CO2 units. Diode lasers are typically best for organic materials like wood but will do some non-clear plastics, clear plastics with some type of coating and the higher power ones can do surface mark coated metal. CO2 can do organic material, some plastics, and clear materials like glass without any coating, but they are so so on metals. Essentially, if a person wanted to run a shop/business, they would do best with both a CO2 and fiber laser. Diode and CO2 lasers, depending on what you buy, can have about the same cutting area but decent fiber lasers typically are less than 10 inches by 10 inches, if that, for work area.

@nerored6235 thank you 😊

[@nerored6235]

@@3ch1dna07 hope it helps. I'm useful sometimes

[@StephenBoyd21]

That F to E connection is not going to last very long, it's tiny.

[@justinlaser]

Not as thin as it looks in the video but would add some extra stroke weight if I do another draft.
