Super helpful! Mine came a few weeks ago and I haven't had a chance to set it up, but it's nice to see that it looks like it's going to be a simple process. Now I'm back to just worrying that I don't actually have room for it in my office!
Very interesting. I had not heard of this machine. I have not thought of moving from my Cricut to the next step of laser cutting yet, but maybe I will now.
Hi Karley ,wow at last someone to show us how to make the ruler ,thanks so much great video btw ,i have literally had my M1 two days and cant wait to get using it ,i am interested in the extract button function maybe you can do a video on that too, you got a sub from me looking forward to your next M1 upload ,take care happy making ,from Clive in the UK.
Nice video! One question: Can the M1 also be used to engrave ABS plastics, which are often used for device surfaces (e.g. these white power supply units from Apple)?
It depends what you are making! But since I love cutting acrylic- I usually choose my glowforge pro! But if I was always engraving tumblers- xtool m1 all the way!
Hi Karley I just got my machine yesterday and I been watching every video I could fine but my mat is very different then the one you have. Also where did you find the ruler?
What type of computer do you guys use for this machine? I currently just have my iPad but want a computer or laptop but so stuck on which one to get???
I’m so curious about this machine in particular so I’m sure will watch and rewatch your videos on this many times, LOL! Can’t wait to hear what you think of it. I didn’t want to get a Glow Forge because I just don’t believe I’d use it enough to warrant the cost. But this machine has both cutting blade and laser functionality so it has piqued my interest!
Finally a video that is clear, doesn’t have the presenter shouting at me, and hasn’t got annoying music in the background! More please 🎉
Just opened up my M1. This video accomplished exactly what you said it would. Machine setup and getting to your first project. Thank you!! Great job.
This is the best compliment I can receive! Thank you!

Welcome to the M1 family can’t wait to see what u make 💐🥂
That was a very great tutorial. Thank you so much!
AMAZING!!! thank you so much for this video I know I would have totally messed this up on my own. Can't wait to start making gifts!
Just ordered mine 🎉, thanks for the clear instructions and the link for the ruler.
Where did you find the ruler?
Link is in the description .
Thank you very much!

What is the “extract “ button?
Very GOOD! Thank you 👏👏
Thank you for sharing
Hello! Question, what about foiling? Can we engraved leather and add foil at the same time?
What do you have it setup on? I just got mine and am looking for the best table/desk option for it.
Nice video! One question: Can the M1 also be used to engrave ABS plastics, which are often used for device surfaces (e.g. these white power supply units from Apple)?
Which machine do you feel is better, Glowforge or the xtool? Im trying to decide which one is the better option for me. Thanks

Do you need to let the usb connected or you can connect through wifi???
You can set it up through wifi! Mine now runs on wifi but it is way faster when it’s hard lined.
@@KarleyHall thank you so much!❤
I am interested in upgrading from my cricut machines because I can’t get them to cut through 7mil Mylar. Would this model be good for making stencils?
If the Mylar is clear or white- no. It cannot cut through clear or white material! I’d recommend the glowforge!

Can this cut plexiglass
It can cut some colors of acrylic- but nothing too light and definitely not white or clear.
Is there anyway of reducing the noise whilst it’s not actually working? It’s so annoying
You don’t need to have it on when designing- just when lining things up! I leave it off most of the time!
