A thing so nice we have it twice

[Durahl (Gaëtan Mahon)]

I hope this still counts as a Creation Forum worthy Project

( I do NOT plan on either selling or sharing the Files / Instruction to replicate this Project, sorry )

One of the immediate things I adored while watching a bunch of LightBurn Tutorial Videos was the use of Print and Cut to do stuff like saving a Sheet that didn’t do well which… Without a Red Dot Laser on my G·Weike Cloud kind of immediately flew out of the window - Bummer… Might as well pack it up again and send it back

Yeeeaaa riiight… So… Here’s my take on adding a Red Dot Beam Combiner to my Unit:

CAD Model of Assembly and parts of the Gantry

Assembly attached to the X-Axis Gantry

Faint glow of the Red Dot showing through

Rough alignment done

Link to a short YouTube Video showing it in action

Cheers!

Sorry, but I really don’t see what you’re trying to protect here by not sharing.

I thought this forum was to share and improve our shared interests.

[Durahl (Gaëtan Mahon)]

A mystery indeed =)

OP shows:

• Proof of Concept with a Screenshot of the CAD Project
• Two Photos of the physical Product installed
• Another Photo demonstrating it working
• And a short Video

OP gets called out for not having made it because he’s not sharing the Project.

Don’t let it keep you up at night… it’s always something

Anybody that owns a telescope can likely duplicate this. Any patents on beam combiners have long expired. Does look good, tho…
