Good Timber - Poem Laser Engraved on Live Egde Pine! MakeTech 2023-09-23 | Laser engraving the poem Good Timber By Douglas Malloch onto live edge pine wood!****** The Poem *******Good TimberBy Douglas Malloch The tree that never had to fight For sun and sky and air and light,But stood out in the open plain And always got its share of rain,Never became a forest king But lived and died a scrubby thing.The man who never had to toil To gain and farm his patch of soil,Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light and air,Never became a manly man But lived and died as he began.Good timber does not grow with ease, The stronger wind, the stronger trees,The further sky, the greater length, The more the storm, the more the strength.By sun and cold, by rain and snow, In trees and men good timbers grow.Where thickest lies the forest growth We find the patriarchs of both.And they hold counsel with the stars Whose broken branches show the scarsOf many winds and much of strife. This is the common law of life.

Learn How to Etch Metal with a Laser Engraver in Just 5 Minutes! MakeTech 2022-10-21 | Today we're going to look at engraving metal with a co2 laser. Although you can't technically engrave metal with a CO2 laser, you can use your CO2 laser to etch metal otherwise known as "marking" the metal. Although the metal isn't actually removed as it would be in an engraving process, it is permanently marked, which works well for many applications, although it won't give you deep laser engravings. This process also works well for etching metal with diode laser engraver.Get the Laser Marking Spray Here: bit.ly/3MN7bss******Check out other videos on laser engraving****** CO2 Compound Len: youtu.be/UtMzDDbiT2gChinese CO2 Laser Engraver / 50w Laser Cutter Guide Ep. 1: youtu.be/ssUn6fAODM8CO2 Laser Engraver Air Assist & Exhaust.
