Lightburn camera for the WeCreat Vision 40 watt

    Hey there. Good info there. I just got the ATEZR L2 36 Watt and working through some issues with it. Have you ever run into a issue with the autofocus where it has to be run twice to correctly autofocus? If so, how did you get this fixed? Earned a new subscriber too. Do you ever do any videos with your ATEZR?

    • @TheClackShack
      @TheClackShack 17 часов назад

      Sounds like the module may need adjusting. Make sure the machine can reach the material within the max travel. The Atezrs were a little picky about the way you set the focus. I only had the L24 and stopped using it after getting the A30. I ran my V35 until getting the Atomstack X40. I am now running the A70 pro as my smaller machine

    Did you happen to actually measure the box dimensions in Wecreat vs Lightburn ? Asking, as when I draw let’s say a 2 inch square….and engrave in Wecreat…it is exactly 2”…. but when I do the same in Lightburn… it is not 2” square…. more like 1.8 x 2.1 . I am assuming this is a Lightburn issue ?

    Hey Dave, just had a quick question in regards to this topic. We bought an S1 from xTools and its riser base component. Smoke seems to be escaping from somewhere in the chamber, can’t pinpoint it though. I ordered a 4” inline fan and the 3D printed adapter for 4” duct hose. Any thoughts on all of that? I’m hoping I don’t have a pile of returns on my hands…thank you!

    • @TheClackShack
      @TheClackShack День назад

      Depending on the length of hose, probably not enough air flow through the exhaust. I would add some power for sure. The factory fan is a little smaller than I would like, if running it a long way, not enough. I think xtool was expecting short exhaust runs or using their filter.

    • @DoSomethingProductive

      @@TheClackShack that’s my hope, we’ve got it on a work bench probably 4-4.5ft off the ground and then a window above around ~8ft on the wall. I assume with the additional power and some tape on all the hose, that should help. Maybe cracking the door to the riser base would help get some negative pressure?

    Excellent! I recently bought the F1 and I was experimenting - I had since convinced myself (because I am interested in making jewellery) that I would need to step up to the Ultra. However, although the Ultra is a capable machine, I think a 100 watt Mopa would suit me better. I more want to experiment than just grab a blank and engrave it, to see what I can do, so it would be a mistake to set my sights on the Ultra. I love my F1 and have a ton of uses for it, and love the portability for events and such, but the Ultra clearly isn't the upgrade I need. I didn't even know what Mopa is so thanks for highlighting that I can spend less and get much more machine, for what I plan to do. Helpful details here in this video.

Maybe 20 watt will cover many bases, but 100 watt will cover ALL of mine. I was assuming that I could only ever cover some of them without huge expense! More research to do, of course.
