Delivery Of 2 More Ventilation Fans For My Laser Engraver
[ Saturday May 16th 2020 at 11:04 am ]

The additional 2 ventilation fans I ordered have been delivered. These are for my laser engraver vent hood. I am using a total of 3. Two will be above the laser engraver. This is to along the idea of smoke rising. A third fan will be at the back to suck any remaining smoke out.

I am really hoping I have this problem solved. My first attempt was a setup similar to venting a stove top. This just wasn't enough. The smoke wasn't contained. This left my house smelled like burned wood as the laser engraver worked.

My new attempt is a full blown vent hood and a higher volume of air being extracted. I am hopeful. This makes sense to me. In the off chance this doesn't work then I'll need to buy a commercial system. I don't mind trying a second time. I need to be able to start using the laser engraver to etch my nature photos and begin selling them online.
