#lightburn — Public Fediverse posts

Some of my favourite laser engraved paper prototypes that helped me imagine and realise my final pieces!

New original art in the shop of the Australian Lightburn Zeta microcar.

Ink illustration on Bristol Board paper. For this and many more like it, please visit my shop.

When Redbubble sorts out the uploader (day three and counting of it being broken again) I can provide a link to prints.

Video day today and it's something rare from Australia in art form. Trying out a different format to previous art videos too, hoping it does a bit better.

Spent the afternoon dusting off the #lasercutter so eldest could cut his Roman wax tablet project he's designed. Thankfully I still had all the settings in #Lightburn Romani ite domum etc.

Status: Currently scrounging my digital couch cushions for a few more bucks because I accidentally hit update all in #UniGet and now my #Lightburn License needs renewal. And sure, I could downgrade and ignore the version updates for a few years, but it is really worth the $30 every once in a while. just wish I had done it when I actually had $30 available.

I did manage to cancel the Microsoft OneDrive update and set it to ignore all future updates. Hate having to turn it all back off every time

Has anyone used a #Sculpfun #iCube #Laser #Engraver on #linux ?
I was looking at using #LightBurn, but they've stopped supporting Linux and I'm not paying £95 for unsupported software.

@goeland86 Merci !
Côté génération de la boîte j'utilise Boxes.py (https://boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de/).
Ensuite je passe en général par Inkscape, puis Lightburn (sous Linux hemhem...) pour faire manger ça à la découpe (une LaserSystem 1490 du @RoseLab )

LightBurn всё. Купил? Хватай, а то убежит

Слухи прошлой недели нашли свое подтверждение в официальной рассылке. Вечером 21 января 2025 разработчик LightBurn уведомил некоторых своих клиентов о предстоящих изменениях. Покупатели из РФ и Беларуси больше не покупатели. Лицензии будут отозваны. Потраченные деньги конечно же никто не вернет. А времени осталось – до 24 января. Подробнее об этом и совсем немного о том, как с этим бороться – под катом.

#lightburn

Someone at our makerspace is struggling with the laser cutter, and it's a problem I've never run into before, I've never seen anything like it - so I thought I'd ask here and check if anyone has any clues.

They're trying to make boxes using this box generator: https://boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de The box shapes export as SVGs.

The laser cutter is a HPC LS3060 with 50W CO2 laser, connected to the makerspace laptop with a USB cable.

And the laser cutter software is Lightburn on Windows. The files end in ".lbrn2".

Basically, everything looks perfect in Lightburn, including in preview. But when they go to cut, even when each individual shape is in a different layer, the laser will put extra cuts in or randomly move off at a strange angle and make cuts that aren't in the Lightburn file. (See photos of errors attached.)

Have you ever seen anything like this? If so, did you ever work out the cause?

Edit: FIXED! We emailed the people who sold us the laser cutter, and they suggested we check whether our makerspace member was "streaming" the cutting from the laptop with the controls in Lightburn, or if they were sending the file to the laser cutter first and then directly cutting from the laser cutter UI. The member was "streaming" it from the laptop (pressing "start" in Lightburn on the laptop), which apparently can cause these kinds of problems. When they switched to sending the file to the laser cutter and pressing "start" on the laser cutter buttons, it fixed the problem completely and instantly. :)

Oh man, das ist aber richtig sch... LightBurn, der Quasistandard für Lasergravierer und CNC-Fräsen, stellt die Linux-Unterstützung ein. https://mailchi.mp/c2dafe6db45c/an-important-update-for-our-linux-users

Kennt jemand schon eine Alternative?

Saw this message from the #Lightburn developers last week.

Lightburn is *the* software to control generic/Chinese laser cutters and there's no good alternative for Linux that I'm aware of right now.

Hopefully there will be one before LB 1.7 finally stops working.

So disappointing. It feels like this is really not a technical issue, but due to the Lightburn devs' failure to clearly communicate expectations w/r/t supported distributions and packaging.

So after just getting my laser engraver - devastated to see that the fantastic #Lightburn software is dropping Linux support from version 1.7 - that is a total balls......
