1. I don't have any XTool products YET, but as a recent retiree, I am really diving into wood carving and pyrography. The extensive capabilities that the XTool M1 tool would provide are endless.
2. I would be making decorative cake toppers for special occasions, metal ID cards for RV friends, ornaments, graduation gifts, personalized wooden signs or wall decorations, book covers, etc.

I have learned so much from your videos, Matt. You are the one that has inspired me to begin wood working in my early retirement. Keep the tutorials coming. Many thanks!!

Thanks Matt. I have looked at the xTool line several times. This is more about my son who suffers from anxieties. He needs to be working from home and I thought this would be something he could do because he is great with computers. I am a wood worker so he could also make patterns for me. As a kid my Dad made Christmas cut outs that us Cub Scouts painted, over 50 years later they still ang on my Christmas tree, those would be our first project.

I haven't bought anything yet from xTool. This is the first I leaved about it and love it. Look forward to making some patriotic art to give away to veterans in the community.

1) We just ordered an Xtool all in one bundle. It should be here in the next week or so. I love everything I have seen online with this tool.
2) We plan on making a lot of wood ornaments, and engraving items for sale. The ideas for making storage containers for our craft supplies is an interesting possibility. The M1 would fit perfectly in our setup. We currently purchase cut wood from a local wood cutter, this would save us money by cutting our own. We are super excited to start our wood cutting with this awesome tool.

What settings have you used with the frosted sheet? I keep not cutting through or ruining the whole thing😂

[TheWoodburningWarrior]

We always wanted one of these to add to the wood shop. My husband is trying to save up for one but it might be a pipe dream.

I don’t have an xTool yet, but I really see so many woodworking advantages this could have. I’d love to engrave my old oak river wood with some local emblems.

Great video as always Matt!

I have yet to buy any X-Tool products, but this review has definitely peaked my interest. I envision creating personalized Christmas ornaments, engraved drink glasses/mugs, wood gift boxes, gift tags, a nativity scene. The ideas are endless with this machine!

[santorek]

I have not purchased any XTool products yet. I’m new to woodworking but really like the M1.

[danielharmanstudio]

I have not purchased any xtool products yet however I am looking at the xtool for the rotary options and the ease of use. I carve eggshells and I would love to use this to add some exciting detail to them and other carvings that I make.

1. I haven’t ever purchased any XTool products but love the presentation! It looks to be a great machine to do countless projects!!
2. I have numerous ideas going through my mind of things to make with this machine! Christmas ornaments are one of many! Jewelry like earrings are another!!!

[fromfullertofullest]

I haven’t bought any xtools yet but I can totally see making super cute acrylic ornaments with this!

[DB-kyuq]

I haven't purchased anything yet still deciding on which would be best as its for myself and my 9yr old son who wants to start making little projects

His Christmas ideas are to make lot of Christmas tree ornaments with people's initials on and also make smaller creations to make his own Christmas crackers

[MJ-kjko]

I haven’t bought an X-Tool yet but if I had one I’d make gifts for my family and tree ornaments and experiment with adding to my carving projects. Thank you for another great review/video.

[melissahershberger]

I don’t have an stool yet have been looking for months just not sure what one to pull the trigger on.
Love marking Christmas tree ornaments, various gifts and magnets and personalized puzzles etc

I haven’t purchased any unit yet. But, my hubby makes cutting boards which I currently engrave with wood burning tools. Some of them are larger than 15” so I think I probably need a D1 with air assist and 20W.

[jeremiahedwards]

Have not bought anything yet, but looking at more xtool. I would make coasters, and custom boxes with these tools.

[bombhairbyamanda]

I haven’t bought anything from xTool yet but would love to get it for my boyfriend for Christmas. He’s been talking about starting a laser engraving business and this is the tool he’s been talking about non stop. He has been doing research on custom coasters which would be his first product !.

[reefalegrand]

What was that tray you used for the business cards ???

[SICresinwrks]

Man this would be a dream to have, i have been wanting a laser cutter for quite a while
