What software are you using to burn 3D-Laser files?

Hey Brandon great video, just a correction to note at 12:40 it does have a door safety switch and you can toggle it off or on inside the settings.

Can i install an xy bed on the f1 ultra?

Hi @makeorbreakshop , when can you review Monport GI60 laser?

There is a software toggle in XCS to turn on and off the shield safety. So if the shield is up it will turn the laser off.

No air assist, then you immediately put the plate on the ultra the wrong way. 🤦

There’s another machine coming from Xtool soon and I’m excited to see what their multifunctional craft machine is like. I don’t feel I have come across a machine for my craft needs so 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

This is just another Xtool laser designed for uninformed buyers. They inundate the market with flashy marketing videos in an attempt to make their lasers look better than they really are. This F1 Ultra is ridiculously overpriced compared to "real" Fiber lasers.

Mine is being delivered tomorrow cant wait...

Had no idea you could do that type of relief on slate! 🤯 Is that using the fiber or blue diode? I just bought a 30w LaserMatic mk2, would love to be able to do something like those reliefs, even if not as deep

I want to get a co2 laser but am put off by the size for engraving metal cards. would this be a better alternative?

Would like to see you compare this to a standard fiber laser.

$4K is a bit much. Don't hear much positive comments about xTool customer service.

Interested to hear your take on the Ultra. Also, do you think its worth it for xTool to keep the F1 Prime when the Ultra Exists?

Check out the xTool F1 Ultra (and save a little money) with my link -> geni.us/xtoolf1ultra

Do you know of a company that offers training - hands on training?

Does the m5 have auto resume function in case of power outage

I think manufacturers aren’t going to stop until they hit at least 100W.

At 7:42 you mentioned the frequency range of "20 to 60 Hertz".... TRY 20 to 60 kHz idiot.... Never showing the engraving "results" for more than .5 seconds definitely indicates a piss-poor result - something to NOT be proud about....

Should probably finish watching the video before asking this but.... Given that the tray can be removed, does the Z have enough adjustment to make it possible to have a long piece of material inserted in it's place, with the cutting capacity of this larger(stronger more functional) multi-piece projects can be done and you will get a LOT of waste if you have to cut pieces short enough to fit in the machine rather than just feeding in and positioning/flipping(if necessary) a longer piece to maximize material usage and minimize waste? Basically every 'tool made from plywood' vid on youtube with parts small enough........................

I have a problem, I do not have the word edit on my wecreat top left corner. How do I get that

*Have you been Under a Rock?!?* 😂

Yes please can you do a comparison of a ~60W CO2 machine to 60W diode. I'm torn between getting the P2 with all the bells and whistles and the Falcon2 Pro 60W.

That’s a lot of money to spend on something that can’t cut clear acrylic. I’d rather spend that sort of cash on a CO2 laser that gives me the ability to cut materials outside the scope of a diode laser. I own a diode laser. So, this comment isn’t to beat up on them. They have their place in my maker space. You can’t ignore their limitations.

love to see a 60W side by side, speed and materials please...

Yes, please do a comarison with a 60W CO2.

Compared to the 60W Lasertree one?

I would like to see it cut metal

It's great that these companies are getting more and more serious about security and protection, Acmer P3, xtool s1 are very good!

From the parameter test values, I feel that the engraving function of this machine is average, and I can't see a suitable engraving parameter. And the wood board has traces of yellowing.

I suspect the limiting factor in how many laser LEDs they can cram in these things is thermal. If they can dissipate the heat there's no reason they can't put 20 of them in there.

Roly Automation is at least 1-year behind these guys, their 40W MK3 is not scheduled till 1-Qtr. 2025. Nice job Creality!

A comparison between a 60W CO2 and a Diode laser would be awesome!

$2700.... Nah. I'll pass.

I wonder if a 55 watt co2laser could do the same?

This machine looks l ike something I could use.

Oh my word this is so convoluted

Hello Brandon, I am new to laser engraving, and need advice to decide which laser engraver is right for me. I would like to focus on acrylic and glass item for engraving, but not sure on which laser engraver is the best pick for me. Any ideas!

First off, really want to thank you for taking the time to put this video together. This is really good information. I know this almost a year old, but I hope you still get notifications about comments. What would you suggest for engraving leather and metal? I’m looking to offer custom engraving on handmade leather goods either directly or with metal plates that could be silver or gold even. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Very nice system! -What is the license of the files you sell? Am i allowed to make the products, and sell those to the local hobbyists in my area, or is it personal use only? Thanks!

600mm/sec??????

Great video. Personally I would leave out packaging cost because that can be put into your shipping price, that the customer pays. I would add in misc business costs as a % on top - rent, supplies, kitchen, cleaning, insurance, registrations, safety equipment etc. As for laser time, i've found that it is unrealistic unless it is the ONLY factor in pricing a custom one off job. A lot of people online use laser time but if you're also factoring machine cost, maintenance and labour, then counting laser time is basically double charging (in terms of working out your costs). However it does work in figuring out how to price a custom jobs on the fly, where you aren't making the same kind of item hundreds of times. Ultimately if you are making at least 3-4x the cost of materials then you're doing alright.

I cut 5mm plywood 2 passes, using air assist, with very smooth edges, and very little burn marks on the back side, top side, has no burn marks whatsoever.

I''d love to see a video on deep engraving brass with this machine for coins. It would be perfect for taking to markets an customization wooden projects. but I'd also like to make coins at home to add a makers mark.

One massive issue for me is I need to be able to free hand cut. The parts I;m doing it;s not practical to program the cuts so I want to use it like a scroll saw. Is that even possible? I checked and there is what's called a "fire" button in Lightburn. It;s meant to be a low power mode but can I use this to turn it into a scroll saw?

Excited for more versions of this!!

Hey man. Do you know if you can buy these anywhere, if you aren't from US or UK? :-/ Can't find anywhere to buy from (i'm from Denmark)

Does it allow you to specify the depth of the engraving? I need to engrave 0.03” not any deeper.

Loogs great. Would the standard setup handle a Life Tree 40W power wise? (5mm acrylic and MDF planned)
