Dan Live at Bay Area Maker Faire!

either way, it’s still misleading and a bit deceitful.

Do we think all the items in the original GF video were made on a GF considering how long after it took them to get engraving working properly?

i have no idea what kind of prototype the were using. but when they were at maker faire, they were showing work made on the GF and they didn’t have non-GF employee makers in their booth showing work made on other machines.

Pivoting back from Dremel to GF… the line to demo at their booth was packed! I loved having the chance to see and handle some of the items from the design catalog that I’ve been thinking about, and the staff I talked to were all super nice and knowledgeable (and kept pulling their own keychains out of pockets to show me).

For those who asked, the sharpie is a GF logo sharpie, not a GF engraved sharpie. Not sure sharpie plastic is laserable.

You covered it well.
I asked your (adorable) son where my pattern is for forged wooden Robot Turtle tiles??? Get to work.

Was there any sign of a filter at Maker Faire?

Dremel and Epilog were both running Bofa filters. I couldn’t get close enough to the Glowforges to see how they were filtering.

Thank you. (Sent from my adorable kids’ bedroom waiting for them to fall asleep…)

We’re not going to show our filter until it arrives on customers’ doorsteps… as you point out, our customers are not the only ones interested in laser air filter technology.

Dan, while we wait for the filters, you could sell these as an interim replacement?

Maybe put the GF logo on the side? . :slight_smile:
