Thank you for your video. I was trying to cut and it wasn’t working but with your guidance in this video, it was a success.

[@KaysiGardner]

Hey awesome video, could you please tell me how to get darker designs when you engrave? I am using 3 mm wood and the triangles cos I am also cutting but when I first tried, the designs were much darker, thanks!!!

Can you use he same vinyl used with a Cricut, with this machine?

[@KaysiGardner]

You sure can!! I’ve made shirts and signs with it

[@donnarana1997]

What kind of laptop do you use? I only have a cromebook which isn't compatible

[@KaysiGardner]

I just have a Microsoft surface

[@donnarana1997]

When I look on Xtool for info it seems you need a pretty expensive laptop to run the software but I could be wrong I know nothing about them

[@biloparisien9903]

Hi how are you can we do half cut with this machine ?

[@KaysiGardner]

What do you mean half cut?

[@user-nt2hs1db1j]

Any advice if the material doesn’t pop up?

[@KaysiGardner]

What kind of material are you trying to use? You can search for more, but if it doesn’t come up you can do manual mode, auto measure and enter the power and speed. You would want to do tests cuts first though

[@theresapena8876]

My machine keeps moving the wood. How do you fix that?

[@KaysiGardner]

Is the laser module bumping into the wood? Or is it getting blown? What size wood are you trying to cut? If it’s too big, you will have to put it on risers

[@user-yi8bz7bl4l]

for what reason, it doesn't show the real time at the exit...

[@gilbertogonzalez6378]

How can u curve ur last name?

[@KaysiGardner]

Curve? Like the script? It’s just a font that I have on my computer

[@gilbertogonzalez6378]

@@KaysiGardner i am trying to put my last name in a round leather patch, i cant even get the settings right to cut leather

[@ShanqDad]

The M1 is super...... XCS is the problem!!!
Xtool should have just made it compatible wiht "LightBurn" and it would be the greatest beginner laser HANDS Down!!!
