I have become a huge fan and love all the possibilities. This video gives tips for how to use acrylic with tricks, project ideas, and more.

Nick, as always another great video. I love the chessboard. The idea of the double-sided sticky paper is awesome. I use it for layering projects, it makes it easier to assemble. Please keep up the awesome job. Be blessed.

Just found your channel. Really caught my interest, I was looking at trying cnc for wood. Now I have to look at lasers. Look forward to seeing more videos.

I'd love to see a tutorial for creating that circular Disney box just to see how you got the edge around it to bend around the whole thing :)

You are here in Wa state aren’t you!? I love all the acrylic projects you are doing, thanks!

[LaserEngraving]

Great video lots of cool content and ideas!

When you use the "extra" as a template to lineup the letters, how do you keep that piece in place? I assume if you use the 3M tape on the back they will not come off easy once the 3M taped
letters are placed. Sorry if you answered that somewhere. I may have missed it.

If you left the paper on the acrylic would it still not cut on the diode laser?

[zjdoliver]

Hi, I'm glad I discovered your channel! I recently purchased a XTool P2 and wanted to start leveraging acrylic. Do you have experience using 1/2" acrylic and if so, what settings do you use for both cutting and engraving 1/2" acrylic? btw, I'll be using cast Acrylic. Thanks!

[ashtonshoemaker]

Hi! I got on here bc I seen your video on Xtool m1 ultra, you had mentioned acrylic in general, is this something the ultra can do? Looking at purchasing ultra or glowforge today. Looking to make hat patches, would love to know I could use xtool to do it.

[mtz]
