Looked for this video yesterday from you and found non but now! Thanks for it! Love it❤ hope I can buy mine next year 😊
Thank you helped me with set up
I love my S1 so far! I’m still learning the laser craft. Ha I even have the same workbench you have. Great workbench too. I haven’t tried the rotary or the passthrough yet.
Why am most impressed by the handles on the magnetic hold downs!!! I’m making that upgrade tmrw they are a pain w/o them!
It has some cool features but I'll continue with my D1 20w purchase I thing. I will be working mainly with leather and 3mm bass board. P2 down the line but looking for something just to get me off the ground for now. Thanks for the video Nick, always informative and always entertaining.
P.S. I don't think the Xtools people like me much either but MEH! Be safe brother
BTW the EU version will not have the option for pass through, so EU users will be on the bed size only.
You might want to note that if you get the S1 the RA2 that works with the D1does not work with this unless you buy the adapter plug. The RA2 that you get with this has the plug already on it.
Ive owned one for a week, opened 2 support tickets for a hardware issue and have had no response. Two hardware issues actually. I guess that's why we continue to buy from amazon rather than the dealer directly.
I just got my S1 last week Nick. They had to scramble to catch up to the LaserMATIC! They'll have to scramble again when the Mark 2 XL comes out! The whole focus gimmick is way too much IMO. I have to say, comparing it to the Mark 2, it looks and feels cheap for the price. Fun video as always!
While I haven’t seen the Mark 2 XL, the surface scanning is no gimmick. It’s a breeze to use and very accurate. Also, the system always knows the current location of the laser, so you can move the laser by hand to easily specify the corners of the area to be processed. As much as I like Nick and I support his Patreon crew, his demonstration of the S1 was very clumsy. You shouldn’t dismiss the S1 until you’ve had a chance to work with it.
do you think the thunder bolt is that much better in terms of engraving? do you think this competes?
I think they compete. The Bolt looks much more like a professional production machine.
Debating between getting the 40watt or the 20watt version for now i dont need to do any mahor cutting and currently running wverything on my d1 10 watt. And thoughts to help me choose?
40W is going to be faster.
I am looking at this and the LaserMatic MK2. Both have a unique abilities. I want to get a small gig going. Retired teacher and Military, 62 year old dude. What do you think
I would probably go with the LaserMatic. I haven't used it (actually have one in the box in the shop) but I've heard really good things.
What's the laser bed size?
You’d need to check the website. 👍🏻👍🏻
Can you turn off the auto focus?
Yes
Hey. You said this was the first enclosed xtool. What about the M1 unit?
The M1 is a different beast all together.
@@BuildDadBuild that it is. I have the M1 and really enjoy it but I am feeling the need to get something bigger and more powerful.
@@kellylongmuir3175 honestly I have the M1 and I'm not a huge fan. Other than I don't need a cricut! LOL
The S1 is a beast compared to the M1.
@@BuildDadBuild yeah I can imagine someone with your experience with better lasers will find the flaws in it but for someone like it me I consider it my gateway drug to bigger and better things. I really want a CO2 so I can do all acrylics but funds just aren't there for that right now. Maybe one day it'll happen lol. I enjoy your videos keep up the great work!
I just got my D1 Pro about 4 months ago. Buttttt...............I GOTTA HAVE THIS BAD BOY !!!! FYI, your US links do not work because of the $ amount.
Wait. What does that mean. About the links?
@@BuildDadBuild I clicked on the US links and they don't work because the $$ amounts are included in the link. Thus, it doesn't work. It works fine if you remove the $$ amounts from the link, but didn't think you'd want users having to do that.
Gotcha. Those have been fixed.
Thought I would have a butchers until I say black rifle coffee t , sorry but they went agains5 values I hold dear but wish you well
Are you stroking out?
Too many slow steps to start producing 🧐 but a beautiful desktop machine 😅
That's a ludicrous statement. But you do you...
@@BuildDadBuild i still like you no matter what 🤪 Since you have "all the diodes" wish one would you use to make like 100 Christmas ornaments for a fast shipment, The S1?
Probably. Or the 40W D1 Pro
Great video, as always. The only comment i didn't like is to put your contact on the spotlight because "he/she doesn't like you." Don't cry out, you get a lot of things for free. Then you get monetized for doing thing with those things so it's a win-win for you. I would never say anything bad of you if you were to gift me a used laser machine.
If they want me to demo the capabilities of the machine they need to send the attachments.
@@BuildDadBuild trust me, I get you. But the way you said it is beneath you.
nah...I'm that petty.
Wow, calling out your Xtool contact for not hooking you up with free stuff on top of a free laser.
I think he made a fair statement. If they sent this to him to review, then include the extras that make it stand apart from the competition.
It isn't like he's asking for tshirts, coffee mugs and a bourbon glass
Exactly. If you want me to review all the features…should probably send all the attachments.
Send everything if you want it reviewed correctly. XTool is the biggest nickel and diming company out there.
I think they might have been low on them. When they sent me the P2, they included the riser base and conveyor and extensions. When they sent the S1 for review, they did not include the conveyor. I don't think it was ready to ship yet. The first one I reviewed was the M1, and they included a ton of materials along with it. I don't really think they are nickle and diming.
I was expecting to see the conveyor. That sucks.
