    You're going to want to play with speed and power for that laser. There is no need to leave the last at 100% for all uses. Higher power means you are more likely to burn the material and make more smoke. Lower power means less burning, but you'd need to use a lower speed to compensate. Ultimately it is a balancing act between speed and power, and the balance will depend on the material in most cases.

    This video had me sold, until I looked at their website, and more specifically, their warranty. You have three days to unbox, calibrate, and run this thing before your warranty dies. If you can figure it out that fast, and something IS dead, the return postage is up to you, THEN they repay you, and then the replacement shipped to you is only covered up to 35% or a max of $40. Sounds like the customer is doing all the risky stuff to please the company. I'll keep looking for a more customer oriented company. Nice video btw.

    Hi Nigel, First of all I wanted to thank you very much for your video, it's a great review of the laser engraver EleksLaser A3 Pro and it's also very informative. In minute 9:15 of the video you successfully show how to etch a PCB using black mate spray paint, I recently purchased the EleksLaser A3 Pro and I've been trying to get the laser to burn the paint, but I haven't been successful yet. I was wondering if you could share with us the type of paint that you use for your PCBs. Also if you have any advise on how much tension the belts should have, I haven't been able to find any video o tutorial online that show or explains a technique to make sure that you have the right amount of tension on the belts. Any information that you can share with me would be highly appreciated. Thanks, -- Freddy

  • @techydiy

    Hi, thanks. I made the belts finger tight, removing the slack and not putting much strain on the components. For the pcb, I have used various types of matt black car spray paint, it doesn't seem to make much difference, just use the cheapest. Another option is to use an etch resist pen or marker instead of the spray. Spray a very fine single mist coat onto the pcb board, you don't need to put on as much paint as you might think. Test for the minimum amount of spray paint on some scrap copper clad board. I etch the paint with three passes of the laser. Then I clean the pcb with water and washing detergent. It is very difficult to see if all of the paint has been removed, so I check the tracks by scratching the copper surface to see if any of the paint film is still masking the copper. I have found that you can scrub the pcb quite hard without damaging the paint layer. You also might want to try some rubbing alcohol or similiar to remove the etched paint film. The other option is to use multiple single passes of the laser and then clean the board in between. For that you need to be able to accurately re position the pcb each time. It did take me a few attempts, but ultimately the key to getting it to work was to make sure the tracks were cleaned right down to bare copper. If the copper doesn't start etching straight away then its more than likely that there is still a film of paint on the tracks. Hope that helps.

    Does it also cut acrylic? Im looking for a solution to get into pc modding and want to use a laser to cut acrylic backplates and other cool pc mods.

    It can cut black acrylic, not transparent or white. You really want a co2 laser for that.

    How stiff is this laser? I mean if I wanted to change the electronics for uno with grbl and fit in Z axis and maybe mount dremel or another router/spindle solution, would you say that this construction stiffness will be good enough for small milling jobs? Thanks for your answer

    Is it possible to enlarge the engraving area by building a larger frame? Or is the engraving area size controlled by the software?

    Yes, you could build a bigger frame. I am not sure what the practical size limit.it would be with this design.

    Great video. Interested to know more about the copper etching you briefly showed. I was looking at etching a circuit out of copper polyester taffeta fabric, then using the laser to cut out precision holes in the fabric as well. Can I ask how you did the etching, and do you think the laser could cut through the fabric to shape it?

    By coating the copper with black spray paint (as an etch resist). Engraving an image (burning off the spray paint) with the laser. Then etching it with an etchant (sodium persulphate) I don't know, the laser wont cut copper but it should cut coloured polyester.

    Can it cut Balsa, XDF, plywood ? Up to 10 mm thickness? or i need a "stronger" machine for these?

    Your talking industrial strength to cut 10mm. A CNC router would probably be a better option. Diode lasers can realistically cut to about 3mm with air assist. The co2 laser I just reviewed will cut to 6mm.

    I have a svg file fit to the size of the wood I want to engrave. When I load it into the engraver software it expands it beyond the size of the engraving surface. Any pointers on how to fix this?

    It's usually something to do with units, inches instead of mm etc. If your using inkscape setting the page/paper size correctly is a good start.
