Re: (was cutting fabric ? now LASERs -- laser cutting denim!

Ok guys, I just made a short (relatively) video of my CO2 laser
cutting denim! The laser is fixed to the Z axis of my mill and the
table moves the cloth under the beam. I cut the power way down to 12
watts for the video, and feedrate of 40IPM. Probably could have gone
lower on power and faster on feed.

Before you laugh at my somewhat crude setup, realize that I have all
of $31.53 invested in it (laser was free scrap from hospital and just
needed coolant sensor cleaned, lens was $25 on ebay, windowscreen the
remaining $6.53). :-)

Video is posted in the video section on my website www.skyko.com

Enjoy!
