Interesting one and two year videos, thanks. I love my big Chinese machine but it's good to see what advantages the GlowForge offers. I'm thinking about how I can add a camera to my machine.

thanks for sharing on and I hope your in your new home and settled in by now.

I bought the pro and the passthrough slot has been great. To be honest though, it wasn't "great" until they included the passthrough slot function to align prints. Since then its been just amazing. I have yet to have a print misalign when I use it. I've been able to print out lots of large items. I use it a lot to cut leather gussets for bags. I used to split the gusset in half and stitch the middle. Now I just cut the whole gusset with the passthrough.

I think one of the drawbacks is that it cannot handle a rotary attachment. I am surprised they have not upgraded the unit as it has been out for several years now.

I also installed the fan that they use here and its soooo much better. I did get complaints about smell outside from my neighbors so I had to attach a filter to the outside hose.

Thank you for info.

Not only is the box "quite the box", but if you have to send the glowforge back to the mothership for repair.. you HAVE to use that box. And if you don't have it, you have to buy a new one. And the BOX... is 250 bux.

Great VID, my Front Carriage Plate V-Wheel broke, Im from Canada and no one sells these(that I know of yet). The funny part was I was doing preventative maintenance so nothing would break. Im waiting for GF to send me replacement but now I'm in downtime, and orders have piled up. I wish they would sell these on their main site so i could order 4 or 6 of them. I dont understand why they dont sell more items on that page. If anyone knows where i can buy aftermarket ones let me know thanks !! **Update Carriage plate v wheel $7.42 for a pair Pulley wheel $8.73 from GF reps but you must order through site **

Great info! Are you looking other brands? eg. Full Spectrum Muse? Thanks

"Nah I’m playing Valheim...” I’m for it

Question about the fan… If you use an inline fan, do you disable the Glowforge fan? If so, how? Thanks.

Do you make a lot of stuff where you're constantly using it?

Do you have the link to the inline fan also can I put on even if I have a filter? Tia

I thought l was finally gonna get one but that shipping cost Holy crap

Have you replaced the Laser Tube yet?

I think the basic is up to $4000

The fast lane is really discouraging. It just makes the company look sketchy. It’s a gimmick to get more money.

I feel like the material you're buying from amazon is overpriced. Could you not get larger sheets for much cheaper? what I have been doing is going to home depot and getting the 2 feet by 4 feet mdf and having them cut it into quarters for 7$. You're currently paying about 8 cents a square inch I think. I'm paying about .006 cents a square inch. Unless my math is off, and boy am I bad at math lol.

Still just seems too much like a hobby grade machine. Put the 7k down on an Epilog and know the machine can run in a production environment.

FIRST :)
