My Lasers
While I have an ever changing cast of “characters” in my shop, these are the past, present and future lasers I am working with.
Current Lasers
My metal engraving BEAST! This MOPA fiber laser exists for one reason and one reason only—to engrave any metal I put in front of it. Coins, bottle openers, jewelry—you name it. I highly recommend it if you’re adding a fiber laser to your line-up. Tell the rep that Justin sent you for $100 off! Need help learning fiber? Check out my course!

Boss LS-1630
What can I say about my LS-1630 (65w) other than it was my workhorse. It was the first laser I ever bought with my own money and it runs my laser business to this day.
My xTool P2 is the “little brother” to my Boss co2 laser. I mainly use my P2 for experimenting with different materials and working on one off projects. Slowly but surely becoming a shop favorite. If you need an all-around great entry level co2 laser to get started, the P2 is a great option.

The new gal in the shop. I’m still experimenting with all this laser has to offer, but I am impressed with what it can do. Ive been customizing wood trays with the diode laser and making these bad a** coins with the fiber.

The S1 is the only gantry diode laser I keep operating in my shop, and for good reason. While it cant cut all the materials my co2 lasers can, it makes up for it in spades with beautifully detailed engraving work. My S1 is my go-to option when I need crisp, photo-realistic engravings.
