*Awesome video!* I'm going to try this for my hats! Thanks! *Love the Flag!* _Happy to see you leaving the mistakes in the video._ Now I need a heat press! 🤪

i like to do one take videos, and i like to leave in the mistakes, cause no one is perfect, and I don't want to portray myself that way! Thank you for the compliment!!!!!!!

what type of acrylic are you using for your cat patches? You mentioned two types one was duets and I don’t know what the other one was. Can you share some light on this? Thank you.

Hi… Cool channel! Does the Valcro method work well? Could you share what type of brand valcro you use if it works well to be peeled in and off.

it does work well, i use it for hats that already have the loop part of the velcro sewn onto them. then i put the hook on the patch. industrial strength velcro brand or generic has worked great.

Does this same technique apply with leatherette for a 10W diode? Do you have any settings I could start my tests with for that? Thanks for the video🙂

yes, with leatherette run a lower power, faster.

I have a question I have the same machines. What do you use to cut the sheets in half Because 12 x24 won't fit in the work area. Regular leatherette patches I use a utility knife.

Patrick, I just received my acrylic red/white/blue sheet. Did you run a materials test before you started your patches? If you did what were the parameters you used if you would care to share. You mentioned off focus by 3mm up. Is that for all acrylics?

Nice work. These are great ideas. Thanks for sharing. If you don’t mind me asking, what laser were you using and where do you get the substrates used to make these designs? Also can this be achieved with a 20w diode laser? Thanks for your time.

Can you give us a little description of the acrylic material you used. I did not see it in descriptions below, or did I miss it? Thanks Great video.

Hello Patrick. I have the Lasermatic 10, an 80 watt JPT M7 Mopa, a 5 watt UV, a Thunder Nova 35-100 watt C)2, and a Laser Pecker 4. I just ordered some copper acrylic and also some gold/silver (just released today) from Lonestar Adhesive. Since you do not have a Laser Pecker 4 and Thunder Nova 35 but from watching your youtube video that you have the Lasermatic 10, a fiber laser, and a UV laser, my question to you is: of those 3 lasers (Lasermatic 10, fiber laser, and UV laser), which one would engrave the best? Wouldn't the UV laser perform the best since it has a very small dot size and it can engrave on organic product very well. Have you tried engraving the copper acrylic on all 3 lasers?

I have the same question. Great video Patrick! Following.

it depends on the material. i use uv for glass, fiber for metal, co2 for acrylic, diode for high detail and cutting accuracy. co2 gantry for larger areas. each has their own specialty. i also have a 1000w cleaner /cutter/welder!

What thickness of Duet are you using? I would assume the 1/32", but we all know what assuming can do. Also, I was looking at Duets web site, and see the material with a 3M adhesive, are you adding your LoneStar adhesive separately, to blank sheets? Thanks for the info in the video. Great vid

i added the lone star to a blank sheet. i am using the 1/16 duets. the 1/32 will work i like the look of the thicker duets.
