Machines I Use
I’m often asked which lasers I use and recommend—so here’s a quick breakdown of the ones in my current setup. These are machines I trust and work with regularly, whether I’m testing new blanks, creating samples, or running production.
xTool F1
A compact, portable laser that combines both IR and diode lasers in one machine. Great for quick projects, mobile setups, and beginner-friendly engraving on metals, acrylic, and more.
➤ xTool F1 (Contact me for a discount code.)
Why I love it: It’s easy to use, surprisingly powerful for its size, and great for on-the-go engraving or testing designs quickly.
xTool F1 Ultra
A powerful combo laser that features both fiber and diode technology, with a larger work area and faster engraving speeds than the original F1. Ideal for stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and other materials that benefit from speed and precision.
➤ xTool F1 Ultra (Contact me for a discount code.)
Why I love it: It’s fast, efficient, and perfect for batch engraving metal blanks—especially stainless steel. The upgraded work area and fiber capabilities make a big difference in productivity.
Aeon Mira 9
A professional-grade CO₂ laser with a large bed size and high engraving precision. This is my go-to for production-level work and high-quality cutting and engraving.
➤ Aeon Laser USA (Mention Monarch Pine.)
Why I love it: It’s fast, powerful, and consistent—ideal for cutting and engraving wood, acrylic, leatherette, and leather with beautiful results.
