Answer 1

In case you want to remove timestamps from existing model, as mentioned before, place this in your Model:

public $timestamps = false;

Also create a migration with following code in the up() method and run it:

Schema::table('your_model_table', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->dropTimestamps();
});

You can use $table->timestamps() in your down() method to allow rolling back.
