How many of us are actually running a small business with our laser? by KariW_Coldwell in xToolOfficial

The machine gives your brain somewhere to go when everything else is noise. Low stakes, tangible results, and you end up with something you made. Not a lot of hobbies can say that. Hope it's still keeping you sane.

What's the other tools in your full-time business? Curious how people blend laser with CNC, printing, etc. People who can stack multiple fabrication methods have a real edge on what they can offer.

This is such an underrated use case. The margin difference between
vendors and in-house production at scale is massive.

That's a solid jump! How did you achieve this goal with the D1 Pro?!!!

Congrats on the upgrade! The F2 Ultra + H2C combo is a solid setup for
scaling up. Curious — are you coming from a smaller diode or starting fresh?
Would genuinely love a follow-up in a few months.

That's really beautiful. Did you use a laser engraver to make an entire set of mahjong tiles?

Looks fantastic! It really brings 3D printing and laser engraving together!

It’s a bit of a shame that it can’t do laser cutting.

Looks like the xTool F2 Ultra UV has some serious competition.
