    I’m still using the 10W, but I absolutely agree with you on Cedar. My absolute favorite to laser. Makes great boxes, earrings, really anything and great smell to it. Another great video from the Clack Shack.

    Lightburn. I run lightburn for everything except tumblers. I have been happy with laserbox basic for rotary stuff. I design the burn in lightburn and export over to laserbox basic.

    Great video but what about CLEAR Cast acrylic. That's all I am trying to do but cannot seem to get it down and 5 passes I mean that could be hours for one piece of acrylic does not seem cost-effective for a 6" x 6" piece of acrylic. Also for your 3mm Acrylic did you move the laser head down with the right nob adjuster or keep it at 0 Thanks for any help.

  • @TheClackShack

    Clear acrylic is beyond the capabilities of a blue diode laser. It allows the light to pass through. You can paint it and etch slightly but not cut. A CO2 can cut clear.

    If using 10 watt what is your settings Also on your 10 watt the lens has to be unscrewed and lens cleaned as well as lens cap. I learned the hard way and now have to buy the module. I am working with xtool on replacement. Maybe a short viedo would be great. Your other one i dont believe you showed taking the unit apart. The part can not be bought. Have to get whole module. Thank you

    Mine didn't come with the lens cover. It was one of the first ones made, I guess that's why. I have ran it a lot more than most people since November of 2021 and have never cleaned inside it.
