Great review! One thing to be aware of - faux leather often contains PVC, which is very, very unsafe to cut with a laser - the fumes are very toxic and even corrosive to the laser equipment.
I am looking at getting my first laser so i was wondering if this one or one laser would be better to get. Or isc there a third option that you think would be better. Thank you in advance
Thank you for the great video, James! 2 quick questions if you have a minute. What was your experience with cutting 1/4" wood? Also, have you had a chance to use the conveyor yet? Thanks!
Nice looking cutter. I can't find any documentation on the Atomstack site as to the type of CO2 laser used. It is an RF laser like you'd find in an Epilog? Also, could you do a demonstration of work on a larger workpiece that utilizes the auto pass-through?
Glass tube, not RF. They claim it'll last over 10,000hrs, but I'm highly skeptical of that. Metal RF tubes will last that long and longer. Glass tubes tend to only last half of that, at best. The next video will feature the conveyor feed.
Fantastic job on the review! The Hurricane looks like a great choice for a desktop CO2, especially for a hobbyist (like myself). One thing though, I looked at their website and unless I missed it, they don't sell a rotary / chuck for it?
Thanks. I don't think so, just the riser base, knife bed and conveyor feed from what I understand. I suspect they'll have a chuck rotary available for it eventually. I'll check with my contact and update here when I hear back from them.
To clarify, wifi connection is only available for the Atomstack Studio mobile app. I also forgot to mention processing time. Large images were

@@JamesBiggar thanks for checking! I'll have to wait and see if they come out with one, otherwise, sadly...it's a deal breaker.
Definitely in the works and it should be available near the first of January.
@@JamesBiggar great!
