Got THE email for my PRO order!

Speaking of which… Did the email mention anything about the pass through feature working when you get the machine?

So, this whole Glowforge thing is like how all addictions start out. First there are teases and tastes. Then there is a dry spell. Then some more news. Then nothing, then cool stuff. Then nothing. A jackpot here and there. Then you hock your house and car. But then the real payoff comes!

Intermittent payoff, it’s what keeps gamblers coming back and Glowforge customers sticking around.

Congratulations. That Pro is going to be a sweet thing to have!

July of 2016. It’s gonna be a while. But anticipation is some of the most fun, IMO.

CONGRATS!

That would be pretty evil but remember, not everyone is on the forums.

Yes they should. Missing half or more of the fun.

Congratulations to the first.

Expected that something would come out today. Not because of any magic switch in the production line, but because as long as the unit is shipped out in the next five or so weeks there would be zero reason to not put out the email. Stops people from complaining on July 1 even though there would be no difference in delivery date.

Have always looked at these shipping emails in the same way that I feel about the announcement of a soon to be released Star Wars or Marvel movie. That’s nice. Very little anticipation until the movie hits a theater near me.

Yeah, it mentioned that the passthrough slot’s auto-alignment capabilities are still a work in progress and that it won’t be ready yet when I receive my unit. It will come later in the form of a cloud update.

Oh yes. Don’t think I didn’t have ideas of cancelling, even at this late date when my car got totaled and my bank account emptied. I could have used the money. But, all is restored and I have new wheels so I’m content to wait. But that low-power engraving. It’s killing me not having it on the PRU.

You will do great things with it I am sure. All I’ve done with it is cut paper that would have gone up in flames before.
