You also have to attach the included USB cables from the engraver unit at the top, to the electric stand. Focusing the standard Laserpecker L1 Pro with the tripod stand takes a little bit more time, because it takes some iterations of adjusting the length of the tripod legs just right. With the autofocusing stand this is very simple, you just place the autofocusing sheet of paper on the object and press the focus button. In the image above, you can see the laser shield has been attached to the bottom side of the engraver. The LaserPecker 2 laser engraver has to be assembled, but don’t worry, because all you have to do is attach the base on the bottom with two screws using the included Allen wrench.

We have tested the Laserpecker L1 Pro Suite package which comes with an autofocusing stand that really transforms it to the next level. Laserpeckers special feature is a feature rich smartphone app which comes with a lot of sample desighns in the library.The shield also makes it easy to adjust the height of the engraver which has to be 110mm from the material that you’re engraving on. Then, in the app, I selected the type of material I’d be engraving and accepted the default settings for power, depth, and the number of passes. The handle makes moving the unit from place to place very convenient, but you can also remove the engraver from the electric stand and hold it against the material to engrave it. You also have the ability to place the tripod directly on big object like a table or a bench and engrave directly on the surface below.

The reason (I think) for the extra slashes and dots was due to having the metal button and charm under the laser shield. I created The Gadgeteer in 1997 as a fun way to share my passion for gadgets which began when I was a little kid. The idea was to make a smaller outline of Indiana placed inside the original upside-down outline of Indiana and add a frame around it to cover up the corner dashes.Placed my Midori Traveler’s Notebook cover under the laser shield and tapped the button to do the engraving. I would avoid some plastics like PVC and vinyl since it releases hydrogen chloride gas while being cut.

There are 2 USB-A ports that are used for the electric stand lifter mechanism (mentioned above) and for the Laser shield/fan. The electric roller accessory is designed to sit on the base of the engraver and is also controlled by the engraver to turn as needed while the laser is engraving.Both the support stand and laser shield of LaserPecker Pro can be carried effortlessly as they all feature a foldable design. But if you are short on space, would like to easily take the engraver from place to place, and you have the budget for it, I can recommend it for all but heavy-duty engraving tasks. The Laserpecker L1 Pro is a great choice for someone that wants to get into the world of laser engraving, but does not want to overcomplicate things.

This laser machine has no moving parts, it internally deflects the laser beam while the head remans stationary.This are a bit strange specs, but through the tests we have performed, we think that the optical laser power should be closer to the 1. Somehow with the new update I am unable to manually adjust my laser centre point before starting the job.
