  • Have you had any reliability issues? Does it breakdown a lot?

  • @TheKackler No problems at all. I use it a lot.

  • Hey, great video! I was considering a JCUT-1216, do you know if it can work with Google Sketchup? And if you had it to do over again, would you still have gotten yours?

  • @wpederson1 It works with the DXF and a few other file formats.  I'm not sure if sketchup can export these.

  • can this cut styrene? up to .125 thick? Im very interested in one these lasers

  • @skl1cent Yes, but you'll have to make sure it's ventilated well. Kinda smelly.

  • We recently received our laser cutter and so desperately needed general and specific information about the machine that was not available from the manufacturer, your video actually addressed some of my concerns.

    If you have a desire to make additional laser cutter tutorial I would sincerely appreciate if you addressed the following:

    1) safety

    2) cleaning and maintenance

    3) laser tube care

    4) designing patterns and files

    5) speed and power setting

    6) gas, smoke, dirt, and dust removal

  • Hi I got a question, is it possible to cut polystyrene foams without melting them?

  • could u use a laser cutter to create the outer shell of an airsoft gun?

  • This is why I'll end up buying an Epilog laser cutter instead of a cheap chinese machine.

  • Wow! A 60 watt laser? Back in the old days when, I worked with lasers, the mere thought of something like that reflecting off something in an unplanned fashion would keep me out of the lab! Laser goggles or not! But, back then (the 1980's) a 60 watt laser would have cost a mint and not lasted very long. Have fun, be safe.
