We're here at Glowforge checking out their Glowforge. It's a laser etcher and cutter that is more set up and designed for everyone to be able to use instead of just engineers and the features that bring it to that point start with their easy web app where you can upload 3D grayscale images in raster or vector formats. It can auto detect the material that you put inside if you use their proofgrade materials if not you can just tell it what material is inside. It can cut things or engrave things like plastics and woods and it has lots of really cool automatically based features like the one we used here which was able to cut our logo into a puzzle without us doing any extra work. And the quality of life improvements just kind of keep on going it has a camera built into it so that you can actually see what the laser engraver sees so when you need to set your object inside you don't have to do it with a whole bunch of different measurements and stuff you can just line it up with a camera and you're good to go. It also is able to auto focus the camera along a curve so if you're doing something like engraving the top of a MacBook it can see the edges and engrave along the edges auto focusing the laser so you don't have any mistakes on the side and you don't have to do anything way too fancy. They use mirrors to redirect the laser this can sometimes be an issue because if the mirror is misaligned it can cause various problems we would prefer that they use something like fiber optics but they put the mirrors into solid aluminum blocks and once a bolt is in place those things aren't moving so it should probably be fine. The delicate components in the head are also completely sealed off which is great because that means less maintenance for you as it won't be able to get gunked up but if you do need to access it you can just simply remove it with a few magnets. There's three stepper motors to move everything around you've got one on each side to control the y-axis and then one in the back to control the x-axis. The laser moves along with the head in terms of the y-axis to keep everything aligned. One thing that you might notice is that it's not the biggest unit ever but that doesn't completely limit you. In terms of y-axis printing you can actually print things that go pretty far because it has a pass-through slot so you can feed things through the laser engraver while it's going. So it doesn't completely work right now but theoretically what will happen is you'll put part of it in it'll laser engrave what it needs to it'll cut what it needs to and then when it's ready you can feed more of it in and they'll just do the next part and so on and so forth until you're done. But said pass-through slot does come at an additional expense. If you do want the basic version that's $4,000. It comes with a 40 watt laser and that's about it. No pass-through slot, no built-in venting. If you do want to vent it out you can send it out through a window or you can just do it outside or something like that or you can spend a thousand dollars and buy that built-in vent. If you want to jump up to the pro version that's $8,000. It has that $1,000 vent built in. It has the pass-through slot and it has a 45 watt laser so that it can do faster cuts. Well for the average consumer definitely including myself this is really expensive. It is cool to see a more consumer-focused laser etcher slash cutter. Now you don't just have to be an engineer or have one at your school or something like that. You can do this at home if you can afford it.
