From Impossible to Easy: Advanced Laser Wood Inlay Made Easy

There's so much value in these videos. Thank you, Dave!

Absolutely love this laser hack!!! We can’t wait to see what everyone makes with this new technique!

Woah! Can't wait to try this. 🤯 *orders alu tape

Thank you very much I have 22W diode laser. Never used before. So it’s interesting adventure for me. Anyway, thanks for your reply and have a super nice day Cheers

Wow, this technique really stimulates the imagination!

im getting a wecreat laser, i truely hope this works with it, really nice vid.

Gosh the Ideas that are popping up in my mind using this process! Thank you very much for sharing.

This is crazy good! Thank you for sharing! New subscriber

Would this technique work for a diode laser?

Oh man. I’m floored Dave. This is outstanding!! Thank you for sharing this technique. It’s gonna take a few tries for us to get it right. Those exotic woods are gonna get pricey. Question. Will the parallax effect from the overhead camera cause your two subjects to be out of true or alignment for this kind of precision? I could understand if placing them in direct center below the camera improves accuracy however the further away from the center of the bed, the more problematic this may become. Especially so when running batches. We’ll plan this out, pick up some supplies and try a few runs. It’ll take some practice. The foil bit is insightful. Not understanding why you don’t get reflections anywhere in this process. This is really cool…your vids are always top notch and keeps us engaged.

ok. Talk about blowing me away.

Very interesting technique! Thank you very much! +

Love it❤

This is AMAZING! Thank you for sharing...I truly appreciate the videos by Laser Dave. #Beast

Amazing

Great info!! How deep was the initial engraving ( wood and veneer)????????

Magnificent <3

Thanks

Hi Dave, would this method work with Diode laser ? Thanks

Great Techniques and thanks for sharing!!! How thick is the veneer you are using? Also, when I double burn the veneer the shown foil is very resinous, have you try to clean it as well before gluing? Does it loosen the saved parts of the veneer inlays? I am going to try slowing the speed down on the veneer engraving to see if I can make it through to the foil on first attempt to eliminate more of the resin.. Also what do you think if one uses an 1 1/2" lens? Thanks again and keep raising the bar!!!!
