How to Cut Brass with WeCreat Lumos Flex

I picked up multiple thicknesses of brass. Let’s try out .08 inches. Not too thick, not too thin.

You want to really tape this in place. We’re going to heat this up, and don’t want it moving around.

Now here is the secret when it comes to brass. You want it a tiny, tiny bit out of focus. Trust me.

Make sure you are in Fiber mode. The settings I have for these charms is 100 power, 30 speed and 200 passes. Don’t worry, it’ll go pretty fast. This took me 12 minutes to cut out. See how fast it’s going!

Then bam! These are the first METAL jewelry charms and they will not be my last. If you make jewelry, this machine is a desktop sized business. What would you make if you could laser cut brass?

    I’ve tried these exact settings multiple times on brass sheets of several thicknesses and it’s not cutting at all. Any tips?

      You can continue to try to get the unfocused setting just right while the laser is running. You’ll see and hear the difference turning the dial while running the beam. As far as cutting, the area right underneath the middle of the laser head works best and depending on the thickness of your material, you may need 400+ passes. It takes a while, sorry to say.
