DIY Fiber Laser Tube Cutting Machine | Part 13: Test Cuts & File Prep

If you want to build your own fiber laser cutter, join our Patreon group:   / diyfiberlaser  

Today we’re going to finish up this machine build and finally do some test cuts! Along the way, I discover a couple mechanical issues that need addressed, then we take a look at the 3DCutAhead and TubeKit nesting softwares, go through the file prep process, and cut some tube!
