Love these designs.. all of the designs with the foil are dope 🔥💰. Exactly what I have been looking for.. love the classy look 🏆

[scottw]

Thank you so much for including the design files with cut lines!!!

Have you ever tried using some kind of "sand" blaster to clean the material? I'm thinking something like baking soda as a medium so it's soft, then with low power. I wonder if that would be a good way to clean off the burn marks?

I man your brilliance insults the whole cnc community 😂. Why didn’t we think of it? Why???

[kateo]

Hey Dave. Thanks for the video. I can't seem to be able to use the trace tool. Its been permanently greyed out for me. Any thoughts on how to get it to activate?

[jimhallas]

Great stuff Dave. What is the 100% power? 80w,

[koekatelier]

Hi Dave! This looks so cute! I would love to make someting like this on my speedy 100 (30-40W) in clear acrylic. What settings do I need to use with this wattage?

[Vadozz]

Hi! I have a 48 watt diode laser machine. Will I be able to make it even a little bit like yours? Or just a Co2 laser?

[AllenHorn]

I want this so bad! I have never done anything with CNC before… Can you tell me which machine you used in this video?

[designomomento]

I can not use my trotec laser because I dont have one 😁. Anyway you have great and inspring videos😊

[LaserGuy]

Can you do a Video using the Copilot app, I downloaded it but not sure how to do what you've done with 3d

[erik_riv]

The result is exquisitely beautiful 💯 How many more things can be done with the same TROTEC + AI combination? 🙌 Thank you!

Love your tutorials (but the music is repetative and thus very annoying). I have a 80w co2 from a different brand and constantly hear to avoid using 100% power because it reduces the lifespan of the lasertube, yet in most (if not all?) of your videos you use 100% power. Is Trotec different than other co2 lasers in that regard or am I missing something? (I know relief mode is the exception since it varies power)
