  • In this video I make a faux neon sign for my wife's classroom. I made it out of 3/4" MDF and used LED lights to backlight it. I also used stage light covers to make each letter a different color.

      @PottersWork  5 лет назад +1

      GaZaLoC1, awesome! I couldn’t decide between the Xcarve or the Shapeoko for the longest time, I think I ended up with the shapeoko because at the time the extrusions were more rigid...but that was a couple years ago now so I assume they are about the same now. I have a blast with my machine, hope you do as well! If you make any vids with it, shoot me the link here in this string, would love to watch!

    • @GaZaLoC1

      Potter's Work Lol me to I had the same problem on which one to get I took the x carve because I can upgrade the work area to 4x8 feet or 4x10 feet long and also they came up with a laser attachment that can also be used on the x carve to do the laser etching or cuts so that’s why I went with it and yess I’ll definitely share my vids as soon as I get it up and running
