In this ComMarker Omni X review and test, I put this 5W UV laser engraver through wood, stone, acrylic, plastics, and metal before showing its most impressive feature: 3D glass engraving. The Omni X is fully enclosed for safety, supports autofocus, rotary tools, and a slider extension, and can even control the Z-axis for detailed 3D engravings inside glass crystals.
If you’re looking for the best UV laser for 3D glass engraving or a versatile engraver for hobby or small business use, this test will show you everything you need to know. Link to my YouTube video in comments!

Ever wondered what happens when geometry meets LEDs and mirrors? In this article, I’m building an Infinity Dodecahedron — a glowing, mind-bending light sculpture that looks like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. I’ll take you through the entire process, from laser cutting the frame to wiring the LEDs and installing the mirrors for that infinite tunnel effect. Check my newest video on YouTube. All the design data available for free! Link to the video in comments!

Since publishing my reviews of the 5W and 10W ComMarker Omni, I've received many more questions about how these two models compare. In this video, I'll take a deeper look at their differences, focusing on more challenging materials, deep engravings, and cutting performance.
I won’t be testing easily engraved materials like most plastics, since both lasers handle those very well. If you're interested in that, check out my review of the 5-watt ComMarker Omni. For an overview of how UV lasers handle materials that are harder to engrave, watch my review of the 10-watt version.

In this review video, I’ll be taking a look at the 10W ComMarker Omni 1 laser engraver. This is a highly capable UV laser engraver that can engrave nearly all types of materials—something no other laser type can achieve. I already reviewed the 5W version of the ComMarker Omni 1. This 10W model is basically its bigger and more powerful sibling, and in this video we are going to put it through some of the more demanding tasks to see what it is really capable of. Results might surprise you!

Just posted an in-depth review of the impressive Sculpfun S70 Max! This 70W laser powerhouse boasts a massive 830x800mm engraving area and smart features like autofocus, powerful air assist, offline controller and wireless connectivity. I also tested the Sculpfun B70 enclosure and Sculpfun SP1 amoke purifier. I put the S70 Max to the test on plywood, aluminum, stainless steel, acrylic, and even thick wood. See how it stacks up against other top laser engravers! Link to the video in comments!

Today, we are going to take a look at the most advanced desktop CO2 laser cutter – the xTool P2S. This is an upgraded version of the xTool P2 model, which I tested a while ago. In this video, I will put the xTool P2S through a series of tests to see how it performs in real-life tasks and compare its performance to the older xTool P2 model. Link to the video in comments!

Today, I took a look at a more serious fiber laser engraver – the ComMarker Titan 1. Watch my new video where I put this machine through a series of practical tests, engraving some really deep engravings, and show you how to get the most out of your machine. I will also tell you what are the advantages of having a more powerful fiber laser. We’ll also explore two essential accessories for your laser engraving business: the 2D/XY table and the flexible fixture, which are especially useful for engraving irregularly shaped objects. This laser uses a 100W JPT M7 MOPA fiber laser source YFDLP-E2-100-M7-M-R. Watch the video on my YouTube channel. Link in comments!

Imagine having a laser engraver that not only delivers stunning results but also prioritizes your safety. That's the Atomstack Kraft. With its dual beam laser module, you can achieve intricate designs and tackle projects on all materials faster than ever. The cool thing is that you can run both the infrared and the blue laser module at the same time! And to ensure a worry-free crafting experience, it comes equipped with a unique fire extinguisher system. It's truly a game-changer for anyone looking to elevate their laser engraving projects.

New video! UV lasers and fiber lasers differ significantly in their wavelengths, leading to distinct material interactions. Fiber lasers, typically emitting in the near-infrared range, are excellent for metals, marking them through heat-induced changes like ablation or annealing. UV lasers, with their much shorter wavelengths, deliver a "cold" engraving process, ideal for materials like plastics, glass, and some metals where minimal heat damage is desired. UV lasers can also create higher contrast marks on certain materials and are often used for delicate or precise applications where fiber lasers might cause excessive heat or melting. Fiber lasers, on the other hand, excel at engraving metals. Watch my new video where I compare the differences by engraving a wide range of different materials. Link in comments!
