What kind of paint was it? Any suggestions on the settings ? Great video thx

[@DIYTECHBROS]

Thanks! Any paint will do, just make sure that any vapors/smoke is not harmful!

Are you going to try again to make PCBs with the new (neje) lasers? I'm curious whether these lasers can cut through PCBs and whether you can etch PCBs better with this. Unfortunately you are not responding to questions from your previous videos. It would be great if these newer/more powerful lasers can replace the CNC. That they can cut through the PCBs, make holes and graph an accurate etch.

Hi! Yes, we are thinking of doing a new PCB video as laser spots have become smaller. BUT, the process would be the same. Spay, laser, etch. No diode lasers are able to cut cooper, currently. And if they were, they would also cut deep into the fiberglass and might distort the whole board.

@@DIYTECHBROS I did indeed mean the way with paint as you had done last time. But I was hoping that the new lasers were also strong enough to cut out the PCB and burn holes. Do you no longer need CNC to make your PCB to size and you no longer have to drill the holes yourself.

Hey guys! I'm looking to buy the xTool D1 Pro. Can I simply buy the RA2 Pro Rotary tool later and have no compatibility issues? Like, I don't have to buy them in a set, right?

[@DIYTECHBROS]

That’s correct :-)
