Very cool, great detail
thanks again, back in the day I had a hard time using this file on the old CO2 laser possibly too busy
but the fiber laser does not miss a beat
There are several of these vector calendars here in our forums if you want more.
Nice Job!
I had done this file back in 2012 with a 100 watt co2 laser and had quite a time with it as its very detailed and you have to keep it large or
the engrave looks like burned hardwood
But on metal its a different story , it looks good
The fiber laser would have been a great tool for you doing the buckles
Seems to me you have to engrave this one on a very large blank in order to appreciate the detail.
Polished brass or stainless steel would be amazing.
I have some larger stainless
I can't remember what the max size is for your fiber laser table.
You want to use thin plate instead of thin sheet metal so it will stay flat.
its 300mmx300mm or under 12in square
Awesome, that's a good size and would be useful for a variety of projects.
I am hoping it will be , I also have a 70mm lens and I am hoping it will cut stainless and aluminum , I think it will many passes
Fiber lasers seem to do many passes , like coins at 512 passes 1 hr 45 min to complete
I am not there yet still trying everything I can think of as far as material goes
Keep me informed as you learn more about your fiber laser, I am interested in the specs and what it will do.
