      @@makedragon I was thinking _'I bet there are people on sites like Etsy that use that and similar products.'_ With enough attention, it could absolutely pay for itself after a while, especially since (aside from the metal blanks) it doesn't consume resources like ink, or plastic or metal material like 3D printers. I've definitely seen small shops on Etsy that offer both their own designs and engraving services.
      That cat was unreal though. I wonder if it required the depth data that some phones (namely iPhones) can offer though, to get that detail, or if if the software is just using AI to do that? The former would probably result in much finer accuracy, but the latter would be more accessible.
      I'm no expert, but if I were them I'd have put electrical tape or something on the etched phone's cameras. I'd be paranoid about some stray laser light zapping the sensor, even if it's unlikely.

He over acts, which is becoming very obvious. Like when he reviewed clicks, he literally slapped the product on his phone, Clicked some buttons, weighed the product and landed on the conclusion that the product sucked. When he reviewed products for camping. He looks like a person who doesn't even go out on the park let alone considering himself to be fit for reviewing camping products. Like, you are such a huge youtuber who has a massive reach. I am not telling you to stop making these types of videos, at least make it responsibly. We enjoy such videos but take your time doing so. With this xcutter.. who cuts a product like that. You forced yourself to reach the inner contents of the box while cutting it and let not talk about the ink marker part of it. You look foolish bro. I'm sorry for conveying my opinions but these types of videos just give such feelings. Just come to the reality that it's okay to not review the product even though it falls under the tech category.. sometimes you are not just qualified enough. It's okay. and God bless you

    2) Campaigns ran by people/companies who've already delivered products on Kickstarter, or other similar platforms.

    With a normal box cutter, one that you can get for cheap in any supply store, you can already control how much of the blade you have sticking out... you can just... leave the blade as small as possible so it only cuts through the tape and doesn't reach the contents of the box.

People honestly just don't read, or they get spoiled on small projects that deliver and assume it's the same for larger concepts that might be scams.

    As for a box cutter, you only need to penetrate and cleanly cut the tape. 1mm should be enough. It's user error to cut the contents therein.

      The way you describe how to use that box cutter also applies to knives. I always use a knife and never cut things I’m not supposed to cut if I don’t slam it in deep and just penetrate the tape. For people who have a habit of slamming in a knife it would be better to get a 1-2mm long knife blade on a handle.

    The way you should open a box to mitigate damaging the insides is;
    first cut both side tape seams, then prop the middle section up a few cm with your fingers in the side seam, then you can easily use a box cutter, or if you have to, a longer blade, and never damage the contents.
