Building your own Co2 Laser can be rewarding and you can avoid large import duties, shipping and taxes that you would pay on a pre-built laser machine & you get to design it how you want it, to your own specifications.
More Info and Product Information I Use for This Build Can be found on my Website Here – https://mwlaser.com.au/diy-laser-build/ This will be continually added to throughout the build so check back Regularly for Updates.

The mechanical parts I will be using for this build will be from Cloudray Laser (www.cloudraylaser.com). When building your own machine you have the opportunity to design it the size you want with the material you want to give it a unique and personal look. I have chosen to use Aluminium T-Slot Extrusion for the frame of my machine and I will briefly discuss the design and plan for the machine I plan to build in a future video.
Building your own Co2 Laser Machine requires planning. In this video I go over the main considerations of planning and designing your own laser cutting machine.

Building a casting mold for the bridge of the CNC machine with laminated boards; Threaded inserts for the linear guides, ballscrews, stepper mounting and the holes for the connection to the first part, the base. A granite board underneath provides the flatness. Inside edges are sealed with silicon and the inner faces are coated with separating wax.
Volume ca: 75 liter
All ready for the mineral cast with epoxy and rock and gravel…
