Of all the functions of snapmaker the the laser has to be the best for me. When is the 7 watt laser coming out? I appears about the right size and I am tempted to make an adaptor that would allow me to add a 7 watt laser to the snapmaker. That would make it truly awesome! (or a 10w)

Share! Share! Share :smile: I have seen one DIY laser/CNC machine that looks good, but was a bit technical. In the past, I have off-shored my tech work to my son. That is not so much an option anymore.

@Travis I could but I don’t think it will help you much, I don’t own a SM anymore so all my projects are for another machine :slight_smile: I hang around to help out when I can. So if you want to take on the project, I would be happy to answer any questions you have. And help if you run into any pro…

What laser are you taking about? It can be off topic.

honestly i have been trying to figure what my next laser project will be. i was hoping for something high power but it seems that nothing is quit fitting my bill. at first i was hoping to use a fiber laser like the one i posted earlier in the thread. but those are really only good for cutting metals…

Is this roadmap still there, it looks like is was either changed to private or deleted. Has anyone an idea how to get access to it? Thanks in advance.

Hi Atom, I also did some research for a different laser head as I find the included 1.6W module to be way too weak for my needs. It turns out that the you can get the best value by either buying a K40 variant or some 40W diode laser head (~15W optical output) both starting at around 400€ as complet…

[image] dstarke: either buying a K40 variant or some 40W diode laser head (~15W optical output) both starting at around 400€ as complete set. A k40 variant would be a co2 laser with mirrors, you would find it nearly impossible to put a mirrored laser onto a machine with a movable z axis (mirr…

Yes, the endurance lasers seem to use a single diode to get a continues optical output of ~8W . [image] Atom: The 40W NEJE lasers are not 15W output, they are ~7W at least from everything I have seen and read including several first hand reports by people who own them. That also explains why …

[image] dstarke: The best value for cost is probably a K40 variant. The k40 lasers are designed around a co2 laser tube and reflective mirrors to deliver that laser from the tube to the focusing optics inside the laser head. It’s a good design (used all the way up to several undred watt indus…
