@richardgunther I am disappointed to hear this. We have liked the build quality of our xtool F2 ultra and are considering the P3 (or 4 if we wait long enough to upgrade our CO2 laser) and have preordered their 3 in one heat press which arrives in July. So you would think they would care that their public facing resources would match the quality of their product. #XTool
I tried to post on Reddit about an email campaign from xTool I felt…lacked the human curation that should have kept the company from sending projects with words like “Fuckers” to family and student inboxes. But Reddit automoderated me. So I’ll share here and hope others may help boost my concerns about xTool curation and Reddit “moderation.” This is a company I’m deeply invested in, and it pains me to see them make bone-headed, undisciplined moves like this. #xTool #laserengraving

A Life that Follows

A showcase of #fish #skin as a material that can be used within #fashion and interiors - honouring the Indigenous practices from which it originates.

Oh yay, my #Inkscape plugin works!

Now I can rasterize gradients automagically and hopefully feed that #xTool crappy studio something it will like. (that stupid thing does not see gradients at all…)

Drawing Tablet Controls Laser In Real-Time

Some projects need no complicated use case to justify their development, and so it was with [Janne]’s BeamInk, which mashes a Wacom pen tablet with an xTool F1 laser engraver with the help of…

for comparison some pictures of #PCB made here in the fablab of @waag with an #xtool F1 Ultra. #fabacademy #electronics

Another improvement in #fabacademy 's #electronics production week appears to be the #xtool UV laser. Along with the F1/F2 Ultra, this one seems capable of producing even more usable (and smaller) PCBs.
