Rotary roller vs. Rotary Chuck - which is better?

[@brianwohn]

Hey, what brand is the chuck you are using? I find a lot of them, but not many with the tail stock? Thanks!

[@CNCATHome]

I will have to check on that. The chuck is what they use at Making it Happen. I can check with them to see if there is a brand. It may just be a generic thing. They ordered it as part of the laser purchase.

I had to shut this off just because of the music. Too distracting. I'd stop adding it if I were you.

[@CNCATHome]

That is unfortunate that you had to stop watching. That video was from a few years back. I did stop adding music in when I was talking. I do add in back ground music if there is a long stretch of video with no corresponding voice over. Thank you for the advice and be assured that I implemented that long ago. 🙂

Nice video, what power laser did you use and what settings did you use to etch the glass beer mug? Thanks

[@CNCATHome]

Great question. If I remember correctly, their laser is a 150 watt, CO2 laser. I do not know what settings they used for the mug. You can ask Leon over at MAKING it Happen. I bet he can pull that up.

Would you know if this would work on the Ortur Laser Master 2 Pro? Would you have a link to the company who made the rotary chuck so I could ask them?

[@CNCATHome]

I don't know if it would work or not. My guess is that it would work as it uses a standard stepper connection. As for the check, that was something ordered directly from China as part of their laser. I know that MAKING it Happen had found this through Alibaba. I did a quick look and didn't see the one they had gotten. I hope that helps.

Lol Vanna white has hairy arms when hand modeling the chuck rotary axis!!!

[@CNCATHome]

That is all part of the charm of having Betty Wh... I mean Vanna White doing the modeling.

[@makingithappen9840]

@@CNCATHome you think with the laser there all convenient like there would be some laser hair removal happening.

@@makingithappen9840 - Are you trying to tell me there hasn't been? I saw blasts on the inner wall from when the mirrors were not aligned properly. I am will to bet there has been some inadvertent arm crossing of the unfocused laser beam.
