Ripper video mate well done Where did you source the boards from? Anything special to do with the image before burning? Cheers

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Hi Andrew thanks for watching I laminated the boards with constructive adhesive which is a waterproof glue 👍

[@Sawadventures67]

Awesome job Terry looks amazing thanks for sharing, what other materials can you engrave on 👍

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Great question. Steve you can laser engrave so many different materials and cut so many different things most woods can be engraved on and some metals can be to like anodised aluminium works best for engraving.and different colour acrylic sheets can be engraved and cut by the laser engraver leather, glass, stone can also be uses for engraving on.

Hi Terry! Have you tried bamboo chopping board ? What's the settings you use in lightburn?

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Hey mate thanks for watching 👍 yes mate I’ve tried burning onto bamboo and mate I struggled with it but it still worked out great after I sanded it with 180gritt lightly over the board setting I just left it on normal at 60 power and speed 1200 👍you will just have to play with your settings and do some testing on the boards to get it right for what you design will be as it’s not like normal timber 👍

[@Mrbuckaroonie..]

Bloody good clip mate.

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Thanks Buck for watching 👍

[@DWIT3D]

Great looking burn! What kind of wood was that?

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Hi Tim its just a mixed hardwood mate. Thanks for watching👍

[@Matt-0079]

Awesome video Terry, might be a silly question but, do the lasers ever need replacing or other parts of the machine that wear out . Your work is truely amazing, keep up the great work legend, cheers🍺

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Thanks Nags for watching👍.yes mate they do wear out eventually with constant useage

[@Matt-0079]

Love to see a series of videos of you making the chopping boards then printing Terry . Just an idea for your channel 👍

[@MichelleTurnbridge]

I want to burn a design into some camphor wood and seal it so you can use it as a chopping board

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Hi Michelle wow thats would look fantastic send me some photos please after you completed it i would love to see it. Thanks for watching my video. Email: [e-mail]

[@MichelleTurnbridge]

Do you sell that paraffin and beeswax mix

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Yes I do but the price varies if your overseas because of postage cause it’s just a flat rate here in Australia 🇦🇺 👍

[@louiskudlak2241]

Bloody beautiful buddy, may have to get a board from ya soon, you can do anything is that right??

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Yes Louis no worries Thanks for watching 👍

[@6creeder688]

Just a crazy question, what laser is that ? I do some cutting boards for clients on a atom stack m50 pro but I burn them at 6000/60 I think I could help you with some settings to make that 100% faster

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

Hi @6creeder688 I'm using the Atomstack S10 Pro it has a 10W laser head module. There is so many questions im not sure what type of timber you are using or program to run your laser engraver but i think you need to run some test and see what the best settings for your laser engraver. Try running a material test that way you know the best settings for your laser engraver. do you have a air pump for your engraver. I watch a guy by the name Rich Louisiana Hobby Guy and he has some fantastic testing ideas that might help you to stop burning your projects. Thanks for watching 👍

[@6creeder688]

@@HandcraftedByTerryG lol I think you misunderstood, you should have been able to run that image in about 30min, my lasers run about 5-6 hours a day every day there are 2 settings that could be changed that most people have no clue about that you could change and make it 100% faster

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

What would you suggest to make it better

[@6creeder688]

go to device settings and make sure ( s valve max} matches your machine that machine should be probably set to 1000 my bet is its at 280 or so if it is your getting about 1/8 power out of the machine

[@HandcraftedByTerryG]

@@6creeder688 Hi yes its set on 255 which is very low thats fantastic thank you so much for your help👍
