I hear what you're saying but I usually reserve the term "work of art" for something that's made by hand using hand tools. They can be electric, but hand tools all the same. Sometimes the Art comes from the difficulty of the project. Laser cutting is not difficult at all. Grandmother's do it. I'm a traditional woodworker and Craftsman, but I also use laser engravers, and I consider the two things entirely different. Having said that, can you make art with a laser engraver. Yes you can. But that art comes from the designing. A simple compass like this laser etched on a tile (while cool) doesn't qualify. I think if you asked most craftsmen who also use laser engravers they would agree. The only people that think they're making art with CNC machines are people that have no real skills, or real artist that can design extremely detailed and intricate designs. This is in no way a criticism of this channel. Just as someone who's been an artist for 30 years now I want to make sure we differentiate between the two, before real Art is lost. We are already on the edge of that cliff.

The lighter S was the first thing engraved, often laser engraver have heat issues where the laser puts out lower laser power until it warms up. The result is that the start of the engraving is dodgy. One solution is to do a small throw-away engraving immediately before the main engraving, so the laser is properly hot when the main engraving starts. Another solution is to check and adjust/repair the electronic laser driver, and I remember one case of this working well with a 40w tube laser. So it's a warm-up issue. Hope that helps. 🙂

I looked up the laser diode in the video and the specs say "operating range 40-75'C", so the problem is almost definitely a warm up issue and can be worked around as you suggested. I googled around and found a PhD thesis "A novel laser diode wavelength stabilisation technique..." by Abdullah Asmari. The thesis claimed wavelength is dependent on temperature (due to thermal expansion of the relevant micro geometries), and so initially poor engraving action could be due to an unsuitable wavelength at ambient temperatures. However, it's also quite possible that the 40'C minimum temperature marks the lowest input value of the control algorithm that produces normal power outputs. It should be possible to develop experiment tests to determine whether the wavelength or control system effect is the main contributor
@Safariando_Florida3 жыл бұрын
Hi The problem with the (S) usually is due to maladjustment on the mirror of the laser if yours have mirrors, when you engrave in the top part that won't happen but as the laser goes down and get far the laser will start hitting less centered on the pointer inner hole, an adjustment on the mirrors leaving the pointer on the bottom right of the engraving space of the machine should fix it, I had probably done this easy fix 20 times with my machine Best Luck Fixing it

So if you used this technique on a white ceramic casserole dish, since it’s only having a reaction to the white but not really removing any glaze….would it be food safe? Or does it actually remove the glaze??

It’s burning into the glaze. If you do the engraving on the outside of the dish away from the food contact you may be ok

Would this process also work on bisque porcelain?

I do not think it will work. I have not tried it.

Paw paw if I understand this correctly you ran your laser at 60% which would be 4.5 watts. My laser is a 2.5 watt so I could acheave the same by running my laser twice at 55% .

Great video thanks. I've tried this method and it goes through the glaze, is this normal?
@PawPawsWorkShop2 жыл бұрын
Yes, this is normal. It is permanently etched into the ceramic

@@PawPawsWorkShop just tried another burn, it doesn't come out as black as yours, I have a 10w diode, done a scale test, 900/70 looked OK but more grey on latest burn.
