Or not. I have been begging Santa for fiber laser for years and this year seems like I behaved myself good enough to deserve it. Crate weight was more than 60kg, pulled my back while carrying it but I don’t complain. Marking It’s quite opposite to 3D printers where material is being deposited. Laser energy […]

Read MorePlaying with expensive tools (double checking filter transmission charts)

Read MoreDon’t look at laser with remaining eye
Laser is a great technological invention. One of it’s use case is to make markings on an solid object – aluminum enclosure in my case. Sandblasted and black anodized coating reveals gray material underneath. This marking is fast to apply, durable and looks awesome. First product I will be marking is Kurokesu C1 USB camera. […]
