Might pull the trigger after watching the video! Is there reliable free software out there to make the machine run? Thanks!

[@mochi3838]

Thank you so much for all of your content over the years. Absolutely inspirational and astounding.

[@TheTexan83]

Have had an 80watt CO2 laser for about a year. Really stepped up my game as a woodworker since I can make my own templates with it. And then i started adding etching and using it for inlay work.
Love it.

[@TheOriginalMrB]

Nice machine, thanks for reviewing it for us

[@taildragger77DK]

Thanks, just bought the 22W laser. Learning curve ahead!

[@WindCatcherRC]

After engraving cement, wood, or other materials, don't move your project. Add powder used for powder coating and use the laser to sinter the powder coating inside the engraving. This is an awesome way to add multiple colors to your project. Then when you are done sintering, pick up your project and brush off the extra powder.
Great to see it has air assist. Air assist more importantly helps keep your lens clear of soot. Also, it's great to see you use and mention eye protection.

I purchased a Mecpow X5 after watching this video. Watching all your videos and the cool things your making with them I finally decided to buy one. The promo code helped the price also. Thank you for that. I'll have to engrave a vault boy like the one you did for my son. He's a huge Fall Out fan.

[@mds101084]

Just bought one now just have to wait for it to arrive 😂.

Happy little accidents. Bob Ross engraving skulls on guitar bodies now.😁

[@stormpooper100]

Super glad you put this video out. I’ve been looking at laser cutters for my leatherwork. I’d love to know your thoughts on how this machine would cut and engrave leather.

[@legrowin1808]

Your fantastic.

[@scotter_dotter]

Nice!

[@bbarney6139]

Thanks for making me regret getting the xtool M1🤣.... I'll just make this one the next laser on my list. I do need something that is way faster than what I have.

[@scottthompson3116]

How is it for startup, cuz I'm not very good with a computer, just wondering if it's dummy easy to set up and run?

[@1252PFC]

Thanks Mike. Always appreciate your videos. Only request is make a little slower to show step by step or at least the important ones. I feel sometimes it is missed.
And finally, maybe a "can it etched?" Series of videos.

[@MrPenn87]

What was your speed and power setting when you cut the 1/2" plywood in one pass?

[@themanthemyth1]

Do they have an attachment or a unit that will roll a water bottle for etching?

[@pandajfry]

Do you know of a reason why my x5 won't cut through 5mm plywood? I even lowered the Z to less than the arm set was. Yes, I lifted it back up before playing. My settings are 400mm at 100%. 3 passes don't make it through 5mm plywood.

[@dloo7665]

Hi, what dimensions is the plate that you can place in the laser box? Is it also 60x60 cm? Or do you need a smaller plate? Thank you.

[@marielynn5234]

Heeeeyyyy! Michael! ❤😁

[@jerryffvt3722]

Michael, what software do you use? LightBurn? Other G-Code software?

[@Pallidus_Rider]

Guitar base would look good with some candy on it?

[@HypersonicC8]

This vs sculpfun s30 ultra?

[@californiacritic9779]

Male a sign that says, "Michael's builds are the *ucking Shi*." Ducking Ship. 😂

[@one_eight_zero]

Too bad not available in Canada

[@rickgallegos6530]

Links still down. 😭

[@karinasamaniego8765]

[@miasgirls3778]

💜💖💜

[@BloodAcidPro]

You should make a Bass out of concrete. :D

[@BloodAcidPro]

With rebar! :D

[@zeroease]

I don't like the strong cheap OEM smell of mecpow.
