Next week I'll show you how I install Lightburn V 1.7. It's likely different than how you do it.

[@randyday3278]

Good refresher video Rich. Looking forward to the live stream tonight. Thank you!

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Hope you enjoy it Randy!

[@GeraldJensen]

Thank you Rich ... I really appreciate the time and effort you put into making these videos!

You're welcome!

[@RobSandstromDesigns]

Good review of these concepts for working with layers.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Glad you think so Rob!

[@Ganstatrippin]

Very useful info as always , thanks Rch .

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@LarryDMitchell]

Good video and very well explained. See you on the live stream later today.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Thanks Larry👍

[@akbadwolf]

Nice. I stopped using it a while back. Not sure why I had not started again. This is a nice reminder. Thanks.. What is the M Laser I see in your shop?

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

That's a Co2 RM Laser. I just did a review on it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpnRdWqJpsyUnJo Best and most inexpensive laser I've ever seen. Direct from the factory.

[@MileyonDisney]

Great info. Thanks! With LightBurn, can I send a file to a laser to engrave then, while that is running, open another file and send it to another laser? I sure would appreciate some help on that. Thanks!

[@StumblingBumblingIdiot]

Open another instance of lightburn and have each one connected to a different laser

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Yes you can! Click File --> New Window and connect to the other laser.

[@MileyonDisney]

@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Thank you!

[@MileyonDisney]

@@StumblingBumblingIdiot Thank you!

[@heathergardner3028]

Im very new to this but i did an engrave with the outline on 1 sub layer, however there were some parts of the image where the "outline" cut didn't quite match up to the engrave. What am i doing wrong?

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

This is a hardware issue. Likely you're belts are not tight or the gantry isn't square Heather.

[@rebeltaz123]

I don't see how "start at bottom" helps with the vent. Either way, you are still pulling smoke and/or soot up across the material. The laser actually has to cut across any residue pulled upwards by the exhaust if you start at the bottom. If anything, I would think starting as close to the exhaust as possible would be better, but still either way... you're pulling residue across the piece 🤷‍♂

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Try it both ways and test it. The air is moving backward, so the smoke and small debris will as well.
