Somebody at work was asking me about my lab and I took pictures of some of my favorite toys. Figured that I might as well share them here too.

My #laser cutting has certainly improved and got more complex since the early days of not knowing how to cut something out 😂 #omtech

Yeah okay I am too! I know it's a like, likely cheaper laser BUT having an enclosure and easier UI and tbh the dual fiber/CO2 seems incredibly versatile & very much faster that my behemoth glowforge - but the fiber is also only 20w and OMTech has 60w MOPA fiber for same price???

My local makerspace has upgraded from a pair of K40 CO2 lasers to a very nice 60W Omtech machine. 😍

I figured it'll take some tinkering. The other thing I was looking at was the 30w or 60w MOPA from OMTech, I'd need to get a substantial fume extractor because UGH y no enclosure option. It's say it'll get heavy hobbyist/light pro usage, so the xtool package just seems like a decent value?

Monport Laser: thank you for your money, you may or may not see a laser in the next fiscal quarter or two. (ordered one, but had to get a refund from the bank)

OMTech Laser: here's your order in a week instead of two, with matching updates to hardware and manual.

What a contrast in buying XP.

Also shoutout to online hobbyist groups. None of this would have been possible for me without the extremely helpful Facebook group of Polar laser users, who produce *way* more helpful instructional materials and improvements for Omtech products than the company itself. 🫡

Jemand in #berlin Interesse an einem Omtech K40+ #laser mit Luftfilter? Würde meinen gerne verkaufen, da er zu viel Platz braucht.

Also not the point of the thread, but I have had a not insignificant number of laser cutter enthusiasts this year recommend to me Omtech Products as Glowforge is both expensive and has shady proprietary TOS and if I were to pull the trigger I would go with that. Unless Brother wants to throw down

In my review years ago, what people seem to not like about their TOS and software are limitations they've added to make their product actually compliant. OMtech doesn't have this, which also means it's much easier to set your entire system on fire, which I'm not a fan of.

Yeah I just started doing some research and I also came across Omtech and they do have a reasonable entry level option.

This is how it looks like on the panel now ☺️ The controller also does live previews while editing which makes it really fun to work with! Doing this for a protest banner we are building haha

Got the laser all buttoned up. I even printed a fancy little cord capture to plug the hole I drilled. Now just to roll it back to its home, reattach it to the exhaust vent, and fire a project up in it.

I have a 50W Omtech Polar. We'll see how it goes! I'm reading some conflicting info about cutting or engraving silicone, sounds like it's messy and hit-or-miss. I was using EVA foam but I wanted something less squishy 🤔

Worked on my first laser cutting project on my lunch break… Definitely a lot harder than I expected but I made progress! #laser #OMTech #OutSystems

I haven’t looked into this printer too much. I have a P1S and I also have an OMTech laser cutter. I feel like adding laser cutting and engraving to a 3d printer will be very messy and hard to keep clean.

Do those work well? I had an xtools and a omtech both of which I had to ditch (omtech too complicated, xtools didn't do co2)
