My dimensions (Height and width) in LightBurn does not match my galvo laser's actual framing area. I measured out a dimension of 38mm x 10mm but, my laser framing is displaying a smaller image. How do I align lightburn (height x width dimensions) to my galvo laser? Thank you in advance. Love the video lessons.

Great series so far. Never used Lightburn before. Thanks for your crash course. Appreciate your time

[mysafename]

Thank you so much for this. I think this is what I was missing yesterday when I got my new Fiber Laser that came in. I believe the settings are the same. omtech 20 W

How do you get the framing box to pull up ?

Why the text ist 180 dg in Lb and reel rotate? How to fix it?

Vids are really good! Your content is a one stop shop. I joined your discord too its great! Any down side to running Light Burn on a laptop? Mine is a pretty powerful CAD lap top but kind of older, running win 10.

This is very educative video. I enjoy your videos. I have a question though. Is it possible if I want to just create a 3x3 array of laser points for a prolonged time? What I mean by that is, I just need to create a pattern of laser spots, not care about engraving them in metal or wood. Is there any feature what can be used to do that? I appreciate your time. Thank you.

@lasereverything. Just downloaded LightBurn for my machine and watched your incredible helpful videos but I’m doing a circle logo and its burning oval? Any thoughts?

[DanCoastie]

Great video...contour for me does nothing on my 50w JPT...the other 2 work perfect but once i hit Contour, I get nothing on the material

[troncalnegrete]

Very cool !! I’m new on this things I like to start doing this, what brand You would recommend?the CO2 galvo and the fiber laser just to star a Chinese brand since they are no too expensive and some of the are pretty good for the price.

[richardneal]

I wonder if you could show the settings for wood and medal coins. I just got my 60 watt Mopa and can't get letters without over burn. I know the focus is correctly adjusted thanks

So, does LB recognize the library for different materials? How do you import that if so?

[sanfordsowen]

Your videos have been SO hopeful.

I'm having a big issue with my framing button. It was working fine, but all of a sudden when I hit the Frame button it starts the beam and runs continuously until I pause it, then stop it. Frustrating! Have you encountered this by chance? I've turned the "require framing" toggle on and off to no avail :(

[ıronman]

Thanks for your video.
I have a question.Can you help me ?
How can I rotate symbols on laser bed ?
I want it that İn the same direction as on the lightburn screen

[Mark-ojyt]

Looking for a 30watt fiber laser can you recommend one ?

[egyesguQRtV]

My 50W Raycus never shows ready...? Even though everything is working. Also the job never shows the progress information that I see when using my diode laser in Lightburn. Help please?
