This might sound unhinged, but the most thoughtful thing in the entire printer may very well be the straps used to lift it out of the box. Despite all the nice features, that might be the one I like the most.

Thank you so much for this review! I saw another review video come up on my feed and I knew I had to search for your review. We are looking to add a laser machine to our makers' studio and your reviews have helped us in the past to make good choices.

Very thorough review. Best one on the S! I have seen thus far. great work!
-
Excellent review. You were very thorough and I learned quite a bit about the alignment. Great job!
-
Love those 3d alpacas at the back ❤
-
Great review as usual. I agree with you that it did come up short with working area width of 18" instead of 24". Most of my big pictures are 22". For $3K complete, it's a nice deal.
-
Very professional video as always.
-
That conveyor makes it pretty versatile! I was only considering CO2 until now, so this is very interesting! Cheers!
-
Very informative and good presentation! Thank you!
-
Good review!!!
-
Great Video, hard not to subscribe... Look forward to watching more videos from you guys...

We have a Glowforge Pro, it struggles to do some of the things done here, and plain cannot to others. We don't even use the passthrough because it's such a pain to use. It's done well over the years but when it finally dies I'm happy to know there are more affordable and capable machines on the market to replace it.
-
Great Review, I am thinking of buying one but still not sure which one will suit me and my business. thanks so much for this awesome review!
-
bought one, based on your review.
-
Dear Aurora, thank you for you review. I think it would be a good idea to acquire a power meter (Watt meter) to check the specification. In my opinion, often a Chinese Watt is less than an US Watt. Thank you. Kind Regards Albert

Can you please review the thunder bolt 30watt laser? I love your videos you’re making. They are so helpful!

thats a cool cat

It's great to see diode laser cutter/engraver systems offering features previously found on CO2 lasers, while also providing low cost options for the occasional user who may only need to do some engraving on small objects. The XTool software is very powerful but is only available for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android - NO LINUX FOR YOU!

Scuptfun now have a 40W laser

Excellent review. However you didn't put the finger on the most painful spot of this machine, the lifetime of the diode gun. Kudos.
