[@SteveMakesEverything]

You're welcome! Just trying to do my part to create a new generation os maker😀

[@Phsteddie]

As the others state, Great Job! No questions as you described the process clearly, and most folks that watch your channel will figure it out. Thanks!

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Awesome! Thank you! These give you a pretty high bang for your buck and people love them, so there is an opportunity for some sales - especially to commercial customers.

[@dian3145]

You were my first laser channel, still so cool!

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Wow, thanks!

[@adamcolville2057]

Excellent work, Steve. I reckon I will be having to try this shortly.😂

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Give it a try! 😀

[@terryh5677]

As always brother great video ! love it. This will be another project to do in the near future. Thanks for showing how it is done.

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Awesome! Let me know how it goes! Hopefully I was able to show how easy these are to build.

[@veea.4936]

Love it! I bought mirrors after watching The Clack. Gonna try this.

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Have fun Vee. This is a fairly easy project. When you're finished be sure to share your project on out Shoptalk live FB page.

[@aniketgupta5118]

wow thats amazing i just started in laser industry after 10 days my longer ray 5 20w laser machine is not working screen is black and manufacturer is giving the same shit again. watching this project excite me to by another new laser to work amazing work man

[@dakutatsu6450]

You could try getting a new brain for the ray 5 they sell them

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Too bad you weren't on our live stream last night. The Longer folks were there and you could have had an opportunity to corner them. However, join their Facebook group because there is a huge Longer community and also many Longer support people hang out there. Is the laser doing anything? If you are connected over UBS, you don't actually need the display, so maybe you can still use the laser until you get this fixed. Check the power adapter output to make sure it's got voltage (12V or 24V depending on the laser). With the power unplugged, check all the connections (unplug them and plug them back in). Look for cut or frayed wires. The Ray 5 is generally a rock solid laser, so failures are pretty uncommon.

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Yes, the controller is available, but since it's the second most expensive component in the laser, try to rule out other things first. Bad connections, power, etc.

[@prayingkoala]

Really cool!

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Thanks!

[@moruss682]

I think this is very cool! I'm new to this lazer engraving. I have Glowforge Pro but I will definately try this after the holidaze!!

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Won’t be a problem on a Glowforge Pro

[@bryanbaldwin]

This is amazing. I’ve never seen an infinity mirror where somebody put text in the center. I love it and I’m gonna have to make one now. Thanks Steve.

[@SteveMakesEverything]

You're welcome! Glad you liked the design. You can put anything on the mirror. Since it's the holiday season - try Santa Claus😀

[@phaleen]

Very nice! I feel an infinity mirror is in my future. 😊 what time PST is your live stream? Hopefully, after work. Thanks again for all you do.

[@SteveMakesEverything]

6:30 CST so I think that is 5:30pm PST

[@holliday9416]

Hi Steve, i love this project! thanks for share whit us, just a question, the box generator its a particular software?

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Yes. Google "boxes.py" and you'll find it, but you can also check out this video for more details: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZqTn6mtp7ZriM0

[@holliday9416]

@@SteveMakesEverything thanks a lot Sr!

[@philwalters3207]

No co2 laser. What is used for the letters and template? And if using glass mirror I assume you put the film over the front of the glass mirror and engrave the back of the other mirror

[@SteveMakesEverything]

You can cut all of the wood pieces with a diode laser. You might be able to cut the letters if they are sufficiently dark, but you could always use block letters and cut them by hand. If you have a vinyl cutter, find some translucent white vinyl to use. The mirror is used in the back and isn't coated with film. If you flip a glass mirror face down, you can engrave the mirror coating off with a diode laser. If you use glass in the front of the box, put the film on the inside.

[@ThePhotodiver]

Will the mirror film cut with a diode laser?

[@SteveMakesEverything]

Probably, but I’m not sure what it’s made of and don’t know if it’s safe to cut.
