The crew digs into a wave of new updates in the laser world, including Johnson Plastics Plus buying LBT and what that means for titanium-dioxide marking supplies. Alex walks through a day of CO₂ testing hell with tumblers that refuse to bond, pint glasses that behave better, and how small coatings can derail a whole project. The discussion circles around metal marking fundamentals, why delivery method matters, and how easy it is to overpower TO₂ before it even activates. There’s also talk about diode vs IR modules, first-show lessons from the community, and whether some of these hybrid CO₂/diode/galvo machines are worth the hype.
Learn to Laser Everything™ with new episodes of the Laser Source Podcast EVERY WEEK. We cover laser parameters, settings, techniques and more for CO2, Fiber, Diode and UV Lasers! We believe in free and open maker resources. Check out some of ours below:
