    I’ve been wanting a laser for four years, and did a lot of research, including the Glowforge and the Xtool M1. I finally settled on a Thunder Nova 24, but really didn’t have the room for it. As soon as I learned about the new Bolt, I ordered it right away! Looking forward to more Bolt videos from you!

    Two things - That is the best vent ever! I've had mine for over a year and it's perfect. Such a great company too. We bought a second one for our Mira. Also, at the 6:13 minute count, I was hitting the file. button on my Ruida controller just as your Thunder Bolt started beeping and it scared the living daylights out of me! I thought it was my machine beeping like crazy at me! LOL

    Hi Sallie, I'm waiting for your BOLT 101 videos (settings, first engrave, maintenance, projects). I'm super newbie at laser world but watching your projects process encouraged me to get one. Since my space only allow Bolt and I'm going to be doing this for family gifts I am waiting for your super easy to follow instructions. My item is arriving first week of November :-) Thank you for all you do

    I would love more videos on this desktop laser! I was looking into the GlowForge or XTool because we are currently renting our home. So I don’t have the privilege of having a massive machine in our garage with the appropriate hookups and venting. I figured a desktop option would give me a good head start. Maybe once we finally buy our own home again, I can upgrade. 😉 I’m wondering if it can do almost all of the same things as the bigger machines. Like clear acrylic and wood. I can’t wait to see how it works with engraving tumblers.

  • @mmathis9860
    @mmathis9860 7 месяцев назад

    It’s basically the size of the GlowForge bed.
    It looks like it will hold the tumbler accessory.
    This will give the GlowForge big competition. I like the Bolt. 😊

    If you find using keys for every panel on your larger machines to be an annoyance, you might consider swapping out the locks for thumb turn cam latches. Just have to match the current cam lock cylinder diameter and length. Then its just a simple twist, no fumbling with keys.

      What do you have? I'm comparing at the moment. I know I want to engrave metal water bottles and tumblers to start and am confused about some capabilities. (For example, a laser might show a tumbler in the video thumbnail, come with a rotary attachment, but on the website it will say "not for use on metals")

  • @BobGarrett66

    Looks like a nice machine. I do find it interesting that it was only out for a few months and the price went up 10%. Doesn’t sound like a big deal, except it is. It was a $500 hike. OUCH!

    Very interested in doing some research on this. I was looking into glowforge or xtool to possibly invest in within the next year but I’m scared of getting the wrong thing. I make wood and acrylic earrings and would love to be able to cut my own pieces but also branch into some other things.

  • @leahwalker902
    @leahwalker902 8 месяцев назад +1

    Love the video, thinking of getting one. But can you tell me how loud it is? I live in a townhome and if I'm venting to the outside, will the neighbors hear it when the window is open? Stupid HOA rules against noise so hoping it's not super loud like a bigger Thunder is. Thanks!

    • @brandiehammond
      @brandiehammond 7 месяцев назад

      I would recommend to find out exactly what your rules are for your HOA. There are a lot of them who do not allow additional items sticking out of the windows, especially with this needing to vent . They may frown upon this, and if you end up doing it with out their knowledge, you can be heavily fined each time it is brought to their attention. And trust me there are plenty of HOA snoopers who specialize in making people be miserable. Just don’t want you to be into trouble with them.

      It has an RF tube, a very small laser spot size, a great and powerful exhaust fan, a very safe enclosure, and is built like a tank... for significantly less money than a Glowforge. Also Lightburn compatible, no special software requirements. That changes the game quite a bit as far as Desktop lasers go.
