Ortur Laser - Detailed Build Instructions in Less Than 15 minutes!

[@treybaskerville5131]

This is great. Although I have seen a few build videos on the Ortur LM 2, I will still watch your video, and I literally got mine delivered today. This weekend is gonna be a good one!! Thanks!

Glad it was helpful!

Ongoing, I need to cut a lot of 4.1 mm corrugated cardboard for custom-made optimally-sized shipping boxes for my eBay business. The way I currently do it, there's a sharp rapidly-moving Xacto-style knife passing by, less than an inch away from my fingers many times a day, as a result. I'm wary. So I'm looking forward to trying this laser instead, for that. I've learned a lot from this, and your related relevant videos. Thank you so much for your detail-oriented, broad-coverage benevolent, creative work. I learned a lot, and I also feel less intimidated.

[@randallpatrickc]

Great channel - just found you. Can I ask if I can cut thin (3-6mm) white EPP foam?

[@PourMeAnother]

I ordered one of these about a week ago, (seems to be taking forever, LOL) so excited to get it and start using it. Wonderful explanation!! Thank you!

[@ORSurfbum]

Where did you order from I got one within 5 days. And didn't pay for rush shipping.

[@PourMeAnother]

@@ORSurfbum Unfortunately I ordered it from GearBest...Best they are not. Because I inquired about my order, they completely cancelled my order. I ordered a different brand from Amazon 2 days ago and it was delivered today.

[@ORSurfbum]

@@PourMeAnother yeah I almost went with them then a quick Google search turned me away. I almost did Amazon but they wanted 200$ more than 3dprintersbay who I ended up choosing

[@PourMeAnother]

@@ORSurfbum I had to return my laser for malfunctions, thanks for the tip for 3dprintersbay, I just ordered one from them.!!

Why did you skip every part where you actually did the assembly?

[@georgechambers3197]

I must agree assembly is very easy. I've had my 20W for a month and still haven't been able to use it, bad motherboard. I'm waiting for a new one to be shipped. Thanks for the video!

[@DIY3DTECHcom]

Thanks for commenting and finger's crossed for you and your new board!

Do you plan on installing the 7.5W laser module onto the Ortur?

Well that is a long story :-) there will be a video coming on that project in the next couple weeks :-)

Does the same air assist work for this model with the new laser for adjustment?

[@marknorman8309]

I just got the Laser Master 2 and can not get it to work. when I turn it on, it will come to the front left and tries to keep going. I have never had a laser before. can you help?

[@ctk0305]

Hi! I just bought a 20W to upgrade from 15W, however when i run it, there's no control over the fire output.. it constantly burning and does not follow the figure anymore.. it fills all over the leather

[@SoulRelaxationMusic]

Hello, I would like to ask you a question... do you know if there is a board like the one from ortur or neje that support the S0-1000 but has a Z axis to? Because I want to diy a laser engraver but I want it to have the Z axis to for auto lowering at each pass in lightburn. Thank you for your time.

[@flatlanderbackpacking7181]

Mine was delivered by Amazon last week. My 20w laser does not have the adjustment knob like the one in your video.

how can i find website to copy files for my engrave testing. thanks sir

[@victoriag868]

The end stop keeps moving when the gantry moves back and forth. Is it that the screw needs to be tighter or am I doing something wrong? 😟help

[@annettehicks7425]

What type of mat do you have that sitting on? Is it heat resistant?

[@nathanweitzman9531]

Looks like a cutting mat for paper/cardboard/matboard to me. Cut resistant but certainly not heat resistant. I'd guess he has it there in the video because a little reference for scale is nice and all.

[@bru77o]

I'm seeing some changes already, my LM2 20W didn't come with that z axis slider, the lens is also diferent. Question: since it already comes with that slider, the work space is still 400x430?

[@DIY3DTECHcom]

Same work space this is the Jan 2021 model...

[@bru77o]

@@DIY3DTECHcom I'm glad they updated their model, but I not Happy with the machine and accessories I got. I have a few things to sort out. Cheers.

[@otallono]

Wow this is the least detailed video I've found of this assembly...

[@vincentecabrera6728]

You say detailed in the description but skip over details?

[@bobbyboy1962]

Finally mine just arrived, it is the short adjustable lens 20 watt. what does it say on the top of the laser or the number on the side that is engraved or looks that it is. I am trying to verify that mine is indeed the 20. Ok enough typing i got me a laser to build.

[@DIY3DTECHcom]

You should have large driver for the 20 watt version

[@bobbyboy1962]

@@DIY3DTECHcom the driver is the top circuit board or the body. I cant relate it to a 15 as I dont have one. I noticed in your video that the number on the top on one of the components says 20 and the engraved number on the side has 20 in it. Can you compare those numbers for me. Your videos are a huge bonus for me.

[@IronMan-yg4qw]

im wondering, since the neje 40 watt is sold out, if i should/could, buy a 7 watt ortur laser and put a neje 40 watt module on the ortur.

[@DIY3DTECHcom]

Its a bit of a pain, I filmed a status video on this yesterday which I will drop in a week or so regarding this project...

[@IronMan-yg4qw]

@@DIY3DTECHcom the ortur 7 watt has to small a working area. ebay has engravers with big working area. like 20 in x 19 in without the laser and controil board, for $122 appx.. but the brands are unknown. i dont know if the neje 40 watt will work with them. i wish you try those. :)

[@tombenton8397]

I am considering getting an Ortur laser ver 2, but wondering which to get, the 15 watt or the 20 watt unit. Also they say it will work with window XP which I have an older lap top with XP. Will it really work and can I run LightBurn on that compueter? I really enjoy your videos, very informative. Thanks

[@wildbillsworkshop3410]

I'm curious as to if the lens on this can be swapped out and how different that is compared to the older focus ring version. Have you sorted that out? If so might be a good video to touch upon a how to. As usual, thanks for the great video and keep them coming. Edit - It looks like there is a slot on each side of the collar that holds the lens in place. Perhaps using those slots the collar can be unscrewed and removed. Then the collar barrel/lens can be removed.

[@robertfielder8398]

It looks like yours is similar to mine, including the new port and rearrange buttons. At least your buttons are labelled - there is nothing on mine. Plus, the upper button on mine turns the unit off instead of doing a reset, so I assume mine is a slightly older version of the new version (if that makes sense!).

[@mpdemo77]

Have you made any updates to the cable management models for this updated LM2 yet? I can't find any on the design store or thingiverse. Thank you for the video it made my setup super dimple compared to the factory instructions .

[@jeffholmes9483]

I also have an Ortur LM2 with the 20w laser but it does not have the fixed focus lens. I'm curious if I could purchase just a new laser module or if the fixed focus lens isn't worth the money. Do you happen to know the model number of the Laser module?

[@duckhunter109]

This video is not very useful. Does anyone have a link to a video that actually shows how to assemble it and does not skip over the difficult steps? Thanks

[@markeastmond9748]

Half of this video is simply saying "assemble this" but you never show the actual assembly - just cut away and come back and its done. This would be far more valuable if the actual assembly was shown. As done it is not really much more help than the printed instructions that also do not show any detail.
