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
I’m still patiently awaiting delivery of this laser (any day now) but I can’t express how EXCITED I am to upgrade to the Aeon Mira 7S Redline! More on this very soon.

My xTool P2 is the “little brother” to my Aeon 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 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.

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. I don’t get to use it as often as I would like but when I do, it always blows me away with its engraving quality.

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.

Upcoming Lasers
To round out my material capabilities to cover all bases, I need to get a UV laser. Not want, NEED. Thankfully the awesome team at HaoTian will have me covered. This 5w air-cooled UV laser is top of the list. Stay tuned for this one!

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 ran my online laser business from 2018 until fall of 2024. I have nothing but nice things to say about it, but, I have recently upgraded to an Aeon Laser Redline to handle my day to day operations.
