Absolutely Loved it!!! You've got a New Sub! You asked for suggestions so here goes one: Lower the volume of the laser sound a bit, specially when you are talking. That high sound frequency get a bit uncomfortable in the ear over time. Rather than that, I LOVE YOUR VIDEO MAN.

I think this new tech for solutions to cleaning without chemicals is so fascinating. I'd love to start a business using one of these fiber lasers because the versatility of their uses is extreme. You can clean historic artwork and statues, blast graffiti or you can strip an old truck's frame. There is so much you can do with one to make money. 👍🏻 What brand is your 500w machine? I'm pretty weary of the Chinese manufacturers after watching some videos. I was really interested in a Narran until I realized it cost about half as much as my 4 bedroom house...

Narran is a good brand, I am the agent for 4Jet in Germany and they have a few decades more experience in laser technology. It is definitely an industry that opens up many opportunities.
Great video dude, I really like the longer format stuff. I could watch this all day! I like your voice-over too, but don't feel pressured to feel like you have to always talk. I think there's something very soothing about watching the work happen, so if you wanted to upload longer videos that have long gaps in the voice-over, I'm sure that would be well received. Really awesome!

@iwnlglobal I can't ever get a reply out of anyone. I've seen how the Chinese ones seem to work, but I'd have to take out a mortgage sized loan to get the one I want. The only reason I'd get a Chinese one is because they usually have a welding feature as well.
Con que tipo de maquina trabajas , son maquina de pulso o laser continuo, puedes especificar que tipo de maquinas usas, por favor
Great video. typically how much is the charge?
Just wounding how hot the surface gets as your cleaning.
This is really good work. And because it is straight forward, though large work, can I very well imagine that one would not allow for sufficient time. Could you kindly share by what percentage the required/quoted time was underestimated? Thank you?
Thank you for the videos, would it be possible to get information on your machines, make,power, and cost, please? I live in Ireland, and I'm looking for a laser cleaning machine. Regards Michael O'Shea

Hi Mate. They're made by 4jet in Germany, this is their 500w topht laser. Anthony From TLM laser is the guy to talk to
Hey, there mate thanks for the video, this is very interesting and something I'd be interested in learning, did you do a course in Germany on how to use the Jet4 if you don't mind me asking, also what if I wanted to do smaller jobs for clients for rust removal or graffiti removal jobs what machine would be ideal at a cheaper cost to start a business like yours, Also how and what is the easiest way you get the jobs, was it through word of mouth, tendering or through advertising, marketing, or youtube?

Our smallest unit is a 200W JPT laser from China, its a bit of a toy in our applications though may be suitable for some. Our 200W laser has pulse energy of 1.5mj, they can be up to 10mj, which would result in afar superior strip rate
Do you reccomend Chineese pulsed devices? because they are half of price the eu devices. Have you ever tried them ? What do you think also cw devices has to be used for? Thanks

Hello, Im starting with laser in few months and I want to know how to price jobs, I have no clue how to calculate. Only thing I know and what sales manager told me is, its better its better charge per job, not fou hour. Because there is many things you make under hour and is better price them as complete job.

I have a 2000w VW laser. Could you explain in detail about the settings and how they affect the work… and what materials it cleans well and what materials it doesn’t
Does this machine require a special gas ? And do you need special training to be able to use a laser machine like this ? Great videos and neat work by the way. So much cleaner than sand blasting no doubt, but I know sand blasting would leave a consistent surface finish on surfaces that required painting. But these gear teeth need to be kept smooth, so great choice for cleaning.

It requires 3 phase electricity and compressed air to work, so no ongoing consumables. Blasting will always have a place in the market due to being able to give a profile to the surface, lasers fit a niche.
How much does it cost to start with this? What does the laser cost? Cheers from Norway

I am afraid of getting it here and it not be what they said or a knock off laser source. Right now the ones in the States are very expensive so I have to take a chance on a Chinese one. Any thoughts on best way to do so ? I am thinking it may be possible in the future to upgrade the laser source plus I will be needing more than one machine.
