Unboxing the @monportlaser 80W CO2 laser engraver

I unbox and set up my Monport 80W CO2 laser, go over what comes in the box and fire it up for the first time.

This is the unboxing and setup of my Monport 80W CO2 laser. It has built-in air assist, a 36×24 inch bed, plenty of interior lighting and a Ruida controller with power loss recovery.

I go through what’s included, like safety goggles, Allen keys, silicone sealant, an Ethernet cable and a flash drive with the drivers. Then I hook up the chiller and power it on for the first time.

I also run a project on it to show how it engraves and cuts. Compared to what I was working with before, this machine gives me a lot more room to get things done.

I have more Monport videos planned, including hooking it up to the rest of my equipment, power loss recovery and LightBurn camera setup.
