XTool P2 CONVEYOR....Complete SET-UP And First Use

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Check out this exact XTool P2 laser here: www.xtool.com/products/xtool-p2-55w-co2-laser-cutter?

[@darrenwhite50]

Just bought the P2S, glad i watched this, convinced me i don't need the conveyor .

[@KaitlynKilly]

THANK YOU for giving us a video without 46 extra minutes of rambling and getting straight to the point!!

[@HometownAcres]

Man that conveyor really opens up the door for some cool laser projects

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Do you want me to bring it over?

[@purplecookie687]

I got one but the motor doesn't work either does the motor on the rotary tool

[@OneEyeCustoms]

Threw me off on the mid week release. So I watched it anyhow😊

[@jimc31]

There is a pressure indicator built-in to the conveyor. It's on the roller section. it changes color based on the correct pressure.

[@ClarkBackstrom]

Another outstanding MACHINE demonstration!

[@ChadCyr]

The "Machine" branding and logo is genius! Love it!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks! I appreciate that. Im pretty exited about it. Im working on some other cool things i want to do with it and id like to start doing some cool giveaways too.

[@ChadCyr]

@SpicerDesignsLLC Found your channel early on looking for a CK3510 review... Still haven't pulled the trigger on the f'n tractor, but I'm still watching your channel regularly. Lol You've come a long way. Best of luck!

[@rantiksadventure1920]

Your the real Machine man keep up the good work.

[@kenschopshop]

another great vid ! now i have more ideas on stuff to do with my wifes p2 , just need to get hers moved out of my shop and set up in her space once i finish that so we can set the conveyor up

[@philburke1902]

Pretty cool addition. Also, can't go wrong with "Machine". Best of luck with the brand!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you!

[@Mark.Anderhalt]

Excellent, Love the new Business Logo.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks Mark!

[@marcus_w0]

Hey Kyle, nice video! For laser cutting solid wood you should, instead of just flooring it and go slow once, speed it up *significantly* and makes 2 - 3 passes. With this method, much less heat gets transferred into the material, but were the laser hits gets vaporized and the piece has time to cool down. This results in a *much* cleaner cut without burning and way less charring.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I sped it up on the machine sign and it was much better. Thanks for the pointers.

[@JupiterMoJo]

What? A mid-week video? Such an overachiever! 😁🍻

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Haha. Well i know the laser videos can be boring for my regular viewers. It wasnt bad though

[@remital6834]

Love the brand, "Machine", best of luck with the brand, I'm sure it'll do great. The conveyor is pretty cool, the fire was quite a surprise. You kept cool about it; you didn't charge in with a fire extinguisher or anything crazy like that lol

[@ulaB]

I have yet to use mine, but I have a few thoughts and suggestions (as KZbin commenters do...): 1. Did you try using XCS in "Slats flat" mode with the tray not in the upmost position? I do think XCS will refuse to work with an error message. 2. Instead of guessing how to set up the pressure rollers check "Appendix 2 - Pressure levels recommended for common materials" in the manual 🙂. 3. For cutting with the conveyor feeder, using tabs is a really good idea. If parts of your cut pieces fall down they will block the conveyor mechanism. 4. With the conveyor feeder (and riser base generally) do take safety precautions, because the P2 becomes a class 4 laser. The laser beam can get reflected out of the enclosure and you'll only see that happen twice.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks for the info!

[@markblanchard5228]

In XCS software settings you can change units to inches.

@@LoansbyCurts thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I try to keep all the videos entertaining.

[@appalachianman824]

Your new sub Logo is a cool design ! Cut it on your Langmuir too !!!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks! I do plan on making a nice metal version for the shop buildout.

[@LichNosos]

Lovin the new machine logo. The first part of the "N" should look like your folding tape measure. Just a thought.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Good idea. I was going to do something like that but i want to be able to cut it out of steel without too much detail. But yes that would be very fitting

[@cybertaniwha]

I appreciate your use of (struggle) metric in your weird imperial world :)

[@paulsteiger8294]

Well done brother.....

[@OneEyeCustoms]

That Machine logo is awesome! Nice job

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks Doug! Im pretty happy with how it turned out.

[@robertpulz1013]

Great little video can you advise how you stopped the the burning on the back side as i am having the same problem when using the conveyor

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@robertpulz1013 thanks! I havent done anything to correct it. Just trying to be mindful of it when setting up the material and layout.

[@chipcustomizer]

Thanks for the video, curious on a comparison in just making the board directly in the machine vs conveyer - since the end result fits into the bed of the laser. I know this is more of a demo video but it seems there are a lot of things you need to do to get the conveyer to work, so it'd be interesting to see what projects would actually need the extra space (and worth the extra $$, time and space) versus something that could just been burned inside the machine.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I will say im not a big fan of the conveyor.

[@TheTwinCitiesBestHomesdotcom]

Wow, two videos in one week….nice! I was starting to think you were trying to sabotage my prediction of 100k subscribers by the end of the year and backing off on the throttle.

[@krissya6768]

Instantly subscribed just because you sound like me when figuring shit out 😂😂

[@Acc_220]

I bet the Indiana sign would have fed better with a wider maybe full width board.

[@patberry3388]

Do you need safety glasses on when usinng the conveyor system.since the machine has open areas when running? Thanks.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Its always recommended to wear safety glasses.

[@phatmhan69]

Nice set-up and video. They should have designed it with rollers on both sides enabling it to go right to the edge ends and would allow two points of control for longer pieces. If you were doing multiple similar pieces, I wonder if you could fab a jig on the table such as two angle iron runners slid into the edge of the material to ensure they travel in square. keep up the good work.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I thought about a more permanent setup that would allow you to square the material to the machine. I will keep your idea in mind

[@JohnSmith-tv5ep]

Kyle, still watching this video, but paused it to just make this comment B4 I forget. On the conveyor, you could make or purchase adjustable height feed rollers, like I use when running long boards or material through my table saw . Just a thought, now back to the video! ... Your welcome!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks john ! Good idea

[@grafxbynando_vlogs]

You can run long projects but you still need at least 12 inches that you can't feed all the way or it will get off the feeder wheels

[@grafxbynando_vlogs]

I wrote this before you said it on the video lol

[@UncleMattysGarage]

Logo looks great!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks!

[@UncleMattysGarage]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC I heard tractors in there, fellow Kioti guy myself

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@UncleMattysGarage ive got some good upgrades on the Kioti coming soon.

[@patriotwoodworker6092]

So can you rerun the Indiana sign to darken it? I have a P2 coming soon so I can’t wait to play with it. Thanks for the set up video on the conveyor. They really need to redesign that thing, you did one project and ruined it? I’ll just get the riser I guess.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

You can run the program twice but once you move it youll never line it up again. Best thing to do is a test grid on that material first so you k ow exactly what finish your going to get.

[@JCWren]

Now we need one of those little keychain voice recorders that every time you press the button it says "MACHINE!".

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Hah! Thats a good idea

[@kiotimike]

Think the board had some cupping, which might be the reason for slipping ? I was thinking of your machine when we ordered these boards with events engraved on them for baby milestones. I was like pfft kyle can do a better job of these. 😂 That shop has all the goodies!. Cheers 🍻 Kyle

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks buddy. Ya that stuff is expensive too

[@Tim4111]

Who's mass producing the "Machine " merchandise? You or Lynn???😂

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I might have to hire Lynn to do it. I want her to take over ALL of your garage space.

[@Tim4111]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC I better put heat in the barn...

[@christiaanmoikahk9646]

Can you tell me, how likely is that conveyor to slip the material? Because like you encountered, if the conveyer is not as accurate as the laser itself, it will miss millimeters. How accurate is the conveyer?

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

The material wont slip if you have the tension set right on the conveyor. And you just have to take your time to get it squared up. It is a little tricky to use. I rarely use it.

[@grafxbynando_vlogs]

You can change mm to inches in settings

[@charliehuntsman9827]

This is totally off subject and I hope you don't mind the question was looking at the same CNC plasma table was wondering what size of of air compressor you use for your table to handle the CFM and if I need to go with a compressor that is 120 V or would be wise to have a 240 V or whatever going to have tue primeweld cut 60 the out put is 80 psi for 5 CFM .

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

No problem. I made a video a while back explaining everything you need to run that table. Might be work checking out. I just use a cheap 30gal husky 120v compressor. But i have a 45a plasma cutter. Not sure on requirements for the 60.

[@charliehuntsman9827]

Hey man thanks for getting back with me appreciate it !!! Love the channel!! I'll check that video out

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@charliehuntsman9827 ya no problem. Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.

[@RBallarddesigns]

Run the project again but put masking tape over it. After it engraves you can spray it with black paint. It will really pop when you remove the tape. Machine rules!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Great idea

[@Atlantismonkey40]

A heat gun removes the store label really well.

[@zedinator]

Agreed, that is what I use and it works very well

Great video. Lol though, you guys need to climb out of the dark ages and go metric, its way better than imperial (which us Brits used to use).
