- I'm going to have fun with this!
Makeblock Laserbox: xtool-booster-10.kckb.st/d568...
The laser is a 40watt CO2 and can cut through fairly thick material.
If I have issues with it in the future or something else comes up I will update this video description. As far as I can tell so far, it's a great machine!

HappyAtom how much?

It must be outrageously expensive. It's not listed in the description and the clickable _quote_ link, wants you to give them your details for a quote...
Nice video, but in the future, save your viewers the legwork of trying to figure out how much the unit costs. I'm not going to request custom quotes just to find out if I could ever consider affording this. A quick google search suggests $5,499 with a setup similar to what I saw here. I don't know if thats marked up b/c its from a 3rd party site, but at least its some guidance.
How much?
I never trust a company who wants all your details before they'll even tell you how much it costs...
$5,500 for that set up.
@@rickchumsae7974 Wow. But a nice machine, nonetheless. Using a K40 myself, it took a long time to batter it into submission. It's old, & using Cu secondary mirror, good enough with K40 Whisperer (sod that bloody useless dongle!). 3mm is the best I can do.
Ditto, I want to buy one but not under these circumstances. I went to the site and left.
I just use my 120W epilog laser cutter
Would this cutter be able to make small, highly details stamps? Like if I wanted to make custom stamps with pictures and hairs?
Hey Happy Atom. Your videos make my atoms HAPPY!
i thought it was great until I saw: $5,499.99 at which point i ca teach myself the setting for each material and use my own graphic software and get a 100W laser and still have thousands left! I i could write it off-then and only then would I invest in this, admittedly super well designed desktop machine!
wow, no burn on the acrylic sheet! that sold it for me! i work in a marker lab at a university and it is very capable and powerful but this seems great for a personal buy! thanks for the review
Okay, but WHAT !?? this thing is BEAUTIFUL !!!!! I have a Glowforge laser cutter right now and WOW, is does this Laserbox look SO GOOD!!!
I just now started to post up videos on my channel documenting my life with the Glowforge and being a maker/self-taught illustrator. I'm glad I found this video cause I might just have to get one myself !!
Thanks for your very informative video. It came at the right time to help me decide how to go forward from here.
Out standing demo, what a neat machine
Holy crap I’ve waited so long!
Great vid as always!
He's back!!! YAY!!! SO HYPED FOR 2020!
Same!
He's back bois
Man that tool looks so cool :o
That is Amazing. Alas so much to do , so little time to do it in. If only I was 20years younger. LOL.
amazing review :D
Thanks for the explanation of the channel
I got subscribed right away great video congrats
~Thank you Adam you are great!
Man I missed you!!!!!!!
excellent review; thanks
Thanks for sharing, I am looking for something similar to start making puzzles
Great review. I wish I could own one, but I live in Japan with tiny house.
Yes please give us follow up videos.
你好，有一个视频在我的主页上，你可以看看。如果您需要帮助， 请联系 whatsapp +8613127135107. 我随时准备帮助您
this looks like a nice machine with easy to use software , the only down side is the price , since you can get a k40 for a fraction for it's price or go big format laser with way bigger workspace and a powerfull tube for the same price , the only hasstle is the learning curve for the software to get a hold of the machin's full potential
Great information, thank you
Nice concept
Awesome machine. 👍
I need this in my life..
For $5K you can buy a 150W machine from China with 1300x900mm cutting area complete with good extraction, air assist pump and refrigerated chiller. Use it with Lightburn software which supports a camera.
That's great if you have the space for that. In the UK not many of us have basements or rooms in our houses that we want to put an industrial sized machine into.
6:02 might be a good idea to let it vent a bit before opening.
its not that dangerous . Reason why you need to blow it out is because it can damage lens not because it can kill ya. If you ever tried burning wood with special burning pen it also makes lot of smoke.
Laser Zelda stuff? Awesome!
really good video,so much details .such compact co2 laser is useful in small amount production.and if cutting engrave acrilic it is better to use aluminum blades table .as a laser supplier .customer will use glass tube laser power from 35W-150W , some cases will use few 150W laser tube combination to create 200w 280W 300W to cut thick materials .
How do you clean the lens? Or replace a mirror? Can you let us know how long that dragon took to cut and did you manage to build it?
Nice video and machine. How do you clean out the smoke marks on the wood or leather? Thanks for sharing
Im saving my money for this one. I wish i could try it♡
Aww dude I'm so jealous! This looks to beat the crap outa benbox and that crappy laser you had before! What's the price tag on one of those?! I couldn't find anything on their website. I actually don't even think it's for sale to the public! Nice video! Awesome product!
how much do these go for, Im loving the look of it
Hi Adam,I'm impressed by your video for the Laserbox.Can we have a chance to show our unique model EM-Smart in your next video?
Thanks TH-cam algorithm, now i want one of these....
Aliexpress => CO2 cutter
Great review !! What is the maximum tickness for cutting an acryclic?
Hi Adam - and thanks a lot for this great Video! Could you also show us, if or how this machine works with "stamp rubber" (so making stamps at yourself) ? Thank you!
It does!
I think your nephew needs a turn with your new toy!
Donna it engraver wine glasses and stainless steel
Do it engraver wine glasses and stainless steel
Hi, i am very impressed by this machine and it is exactly what my wife is looking for to start up a little business. The following question related to the price has already been asked for sure but do not have time to go through all the comments so if you could please tell me how much i can have the exact machine just like yours + the shipping since i'm abroad.
Your quick answer will be very much appreciated :)
Great video by the way and thank you!
It looks pretty cool, but I feel the best thing about this machine is the software.
You can only engrave 22 mm high, so no bottles or thick parts.
But the fact that you can scan designs drag and drop on the final product and engrave it is very nice, especially for people like me that have no patience for designing.
Do you know a similar solution with more capabilities??
I need one for my shop
I Love Love this machine and I always wanted one in my house. I cannot afford to buy one . but I’ll give you a beautiful idea and it’s free for you. the smoke outside to protect people from inhaling the smoke, you can put water in the big buckets and let the smoke dissolve and it outside let me know if you like my idea.. thank you for this beautiful video for 2020 I like that and they have everything better than before. Bless you thank you
How about soft metals such as Aluminum, Copper, brass and graphite?
Wow, I was most impressed with the plexiglass. That stuff is hard to cut right. That said, I will never purchase from a company that demands my information before giving me a price. That's just dumb.
The link he provided is some educator application process. Just go to the buy page.
@@court2379 I followed his link and it wanted all sorts of information before giving me a price.
@@BlenderRookie
it ranging from 5500-6500
pending on where you buy
@@BlenderRookie
indeed the issue is, what they worked on, developed and the outcome itself would worth it
but in real bussiness this laser dont worth
then you go to aliexpress and buy 3x4 feet mixed cut laser 150 watt and cut plastics, paper and with oxyassist you cut stainless steel and carbon steel up to 1/8 thickness
this machine for rich folks buying a toy for children, and that way it worth
@@cnccarving Yes, but the Aliexpress solution makes unsafe vapors that affect your brain and spelling.
I like the idea it comes with a filter box, and not cloud needed to use. but I do agree about the price. I guess if you want nice you pay nice. If I had the extra for it, It would be on the top of my list.
I have a chines 50w laser machines since 7 years ago with no problems at all. just need to replace the laser tube and make it work for another 7K hours. I paid around $3500 back then and now the price drop off to $1300 on ebay. Chinese laser machines are good and I make a lot of money with it already.
Impressive. How much did it cost you? Thank you for sharing.
Nice review. however, the treuth is that your kids are the real show :-)
Like you say, the machine is awesome. Do you know if this machine is available in the UK please? What is the thickest material it cuts? I noticed on the leather it left a sort of smoulder mark around the cut. Does that mark come off and does it affect both sides of the leather? Thank you and happy cutting, Cheers
How long have you had and been using the laser? Have you had to deal with the support team for anything?
It looks like a really nice bit of kit. I almost bought one of the cheap co2 ones from china (around £400 if I recall) then realized the thing is bloody huge! So i got one of the mini laser cutters for now. Price tag for this one is a little too high for me :)
If I may ask which one did you purchase?
First time hearing about this one. The software is unbelievable. Very cool to finally see a consumer grade CO2 laser system. Price point is not there yet but I will keep an eye on this.
Sweet... just like all technology prices will drop vastly.
My first PC computer cost $5000 30 years ago and didn't even have a hard drive!
laser engraving machines are way cheaper than that, it's not a new technology or so
If it's $5000, isn't it better to just get the Glowforge to have the past through feature so you can make larger things? Also, I've read you can get a cheaper laser and modify it to do the same thing for 1/5th of the cost. Still looking into that before I decide on spending thousands of dollars.
TheBeautifulDiversion this one looks to be just as user friendly as a glowforge without having to be beholden to glowforge’s cloud software. That’s why I won’t buy a GForge. Yes, many other laser cutters have more power, cut larger sized materials and cost less than $5k. If this brand has a cutter that has a larger work area, I’d consider it because setup and operational headaches are not what I want from a less expensive alternative.
I thought the same thing, the designs and functions are so similar xD
Now I have to get one...
So this is the belated present for the terminator. The Plasma Rifle on the 40Watt range... o.O
The problem with the laser is the burned marks, especially on leather.
Fantastic! Is there an air assist integrated ?
Please do a full review ...Show the Software
I bought one one Ebay well from a different company cost me under $500 same power and it does the job
Can you Tell me wich one please??
I wish I could afford one of these
Super nice 👍
We can engrave on the metal aluminum sir
Hi Anand
Do you have the laserbox if so could you let me know what's pro/ cons
Thanks Raj uk
Hi Adam. Did you have the Air assist option on when you cut out the box finger joints? Lots of 'burn' marks around the edges. Hoping you didn't as would be good to know this can improve. Cheers.
For people's information. This is from eBay, and is in Australian dollars.
AU $6,958.32
From New Zealand
+AU $13.40 postage
YES
How the hell is this not a Glowforge knock off!? 🤣🤣🤣
Its a knock off, but dam, i am seeing alot of stuff i like over my glowforge... 1) being i hate that i cant operate my glowforge stand alone and if i dont have internet access it become a brick... IMO they took the glowforge and made it better.
@@lawrencedorn6041 Yeah seems like everything is improved. Exact same bed size, but no pass-through.
Lawrence Dorn I'd have been pisssssssssssssed if I had bought a glowforge and found out I needed Internet. That is grade A BS.
I clicked on this thinking it’s a new Glowforge review. It looks identical, they didn’t even try to make it look different but does look vastly improved
Same thing I said, But it lacks in comparison .. That smoke made me gag.. My GF nrver produces smoke like that...
Hi Adam,may you try the EM-Smart portable laser marking machine?
A very informative video, but I have no idea what brand or model product you're showing us.
You kids are Adorable!!! God bless them!
Question, can I engrave a Water bottle or a tumbler?
no!
It has a rotary attachment
Nice video. What brand and model ?
Have you ever etched glass with a blaster? Just curious, because the laser engraving the glass looked horrific, next to using, say, a vinyl template and blasting it with a media blaster. Any thoughts?
Wow, that's really cool! Do you know how much they cost and if they ship outside the United States?
Ohhh, reviews! I'm totally down for this type of content too
This thing was made as a school project? It seems like it was industry made!
Oh wow, your oldest son has gotten so big! Its been interesting to also watch them grow with your channel
Only a few years and he will be out of the house. Sad.
@@HappyAtom Oh wow, now even feel old
OH THAT IS SO USER-FRIENDLY. . BEATS THE SHEET OUT OF MY DOG..
Only if your dog price tag is higher than $ 5 K.
Adam - any idea if this will cut a ream of paper (500 sheets of 8.5" x 11" for example) in one pass ... or would you anticipate a Fire Hazard issue?
This thing sounds very quiet compared to the glow forge. Is it quiet? Also where does it ship from?
Cool laser cutter but how long does the laser last do you need to replace it after a certain time? How much does the replacement cost
There's a scanner and we tc that is awesome
Thanks for the review Adam. I turn wood and was wondering if this has an attachment to laser cylinder shaped items. Thanks, V
I don't know - but it's pretty common for a rotary attachment to be available for this type of machine. Look at the Flux Beambox for example.
Hai 😎 nice working video. But if any iron cutting.
Looks realy cool.... thanks for your video. Do you think it could cut stainless steel with a 0.15 mm thikness??
Sir I have 35w CO2 laser cutting machine , what is the settings of speed and power to cutting wooden sheet 3mm
I’ve been waiting a long time for this.
Also how much did it cost?
around 5000 euros
@@jeanyvespochez Only 5000Eur? I´ll take two! ;)
@@jeanyvespochez over 5 grand on us dollars. Good grief
Hokagetunes site says $5000 (USD), but also states sold out! Then they want all sorts of info to give you a quote.
@MichaelKingsfordGray michael would you share the link of the one you recommend plz
I was considering the GlowForge but it is extremely loud and a lot of negatives. It seems like this MakeBlock would function in an Office setting. I plan on putting it in my office, by a window for the exhaust. Is it quiet enough I would be able to watch TV with it on or work on the computer or what db does it operate at? Thanks
wow!
I am definitely getting one of those for myself.
Oh wait... I just remembered... I don't have an extra $4,500 burning a hole in my pocket.
5000 dollares it's a great buy, i want one
That is criminal...
Wow, hi.. I havnt seen u on my TH-cam news feeds in about two years since the wood rings videos. An now u popped up today all of a sudden! Haha weird. Cool new toy! 👌
If the nuts and bolts are missing, will the box for them remain empty?
Looks great but where can you purchase the materials to cut/engrave outside of the US? Can’t find anywhere online
Can I cut Class A Mylar (190 microns) with it?
Thank you.
HI, Can you cut fabric? And if you could cut fabric, how many layers? I am a quilter and I was wondering if this would help since cutting with a rotary cutter is not always accurate and there is slippage when cutting. There is die cutters out there but you always have to buy that set. So if this could cut a variety of shapes that would be great. Thanks
Nice video! Thumbs up! May I ask you what was the material of the last cutting? (The youtube subscribe logo cut)
might as well buy the glowforge or muse. all the same price- what's the difference? Do I need to be connected to the internet to use this like Glowforge cause that's not going to happen.
May we know how to buy from Egypt, who is the agent, how much its price, and the possibility of installments or not
Do you sell a leather engraving, engraving, and cutting machine?
And Is there a way to engrave on the leather ?
Would this be good for architectural model cutting?
What would make this better than a thunder or epilog laser aside from the child safety features?
