In this video we unbox and setup this Longer Ray5 10w Laser Engraver. This is our first time using a laser engraver, so we had lots to learn on this journey ourselves! This unit was provided to us by Longer in exchange of a full how-to / setup video, but as always all opinions on this product are my own. Overall, we've had a great time with this engraver, and have some exciting ideas for future projects - so stay tuned for additional videos in this series to show off what the engraver can do!

Hey!! Man as soon as I’m set up to do so, I’ll definitely with you, would be honored to make your shop sign! 🤙🏻
What was the fill settings for that last engraving of your logo?
I set the whole thing up while watching your video. This thing will not frame on the Y axis for me. It only burns in a straight line. Any idea what the issue is? Doesnt matter if I use lightburn or LaserGrbl.
I have a question it is about the rotisserie that you get with your machine aren’t you set it up and you change the numbers in the program when you go back to using the laser for doing on wood do you have to go back and change those numbers or are they set in the machine and they automatically go back or do we have to go back and reset the numbers? I hope this makes sense.

I believe the software you use should help guide you with a rotary attachment, but I never used one with this laser so I don’t know for sure unfortunately
Nice unboxing and first burn. Mine is otw. Which license from Lightburn did you need? I see 4 options out there.

I’ve just been re-doing the free version I couldn’t tell you which exact version. I’m sure I’ll buy it at some point! Doing a new video soon with a couple of cool projects so stay tuned! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I just notice the metal cube my longer 5 bringed is half your, cant see how to focus correctly without damaging the equipment

Did yours come with the spacer? For making sure the laser is spaced correctly over the workpiece?
I do not see a link for the cutting bed

Added that to description! Longer sells one as well but it’s normally out of stock, apologies for missing that. It’s a 400mm X 400mm size, there are TONS of options online available, any of them will likely work. The one I bought is linked in description now. 🤘🏻
is there just a basic setting when you get the laser ?
@TheToughGuysTV

Any settings I’ve used are through the software LightBurn. It dictates speed and power as well as how many passes the laser needs to make to complete the cut or engraving. On the small SD card included are some resource packs as well as template files for you too (or should be if they included it for you)
Is the xTool S1 better or na?
@TheToughGuysTV

I think the S1 is superior yes: Full enclosure, vented air assist, riser base available, auto depth sensing, pinpoint positioning (for custom shapes), larger work area, and xTool creative software is superior than Lightburn in my opinion, it’s just all around a better machine BUT it does cost more, and for good reason.
