In this video I show how I use the generic tool holder which I have created earlier to add a laser engraver to my Creality CR-10 printer. I found out that the black XPS plates I had left from my old apartment which are used for subflooring are perfect for cutting with a low energy laser. I created several things with this material which came out great. A friend of mine asked me if I wanted to cut out something for him too and since I was planning on creating a video about the laser engraver, this could be well combined. He unintentionally sent a non-perfect picture which makes it a bit more interesting and over all I think the result is awesome.
The four things I use for laser cutting:
1. The laser module
2. The Creality printer
3. The Quick tool change
4. The material
Please consider buying me a coffee if you liked it or helped you 🙂 I place photos of the projects I am working on here too at random to get you excited with what has to come!
