(@jkopel’s house)

Looking forward to hearing what he cooks up next! The differences between this Joshforge I & II are small (engrave settings tuning, better airflow balance, etc) but we wanted him to have the latest hardware and firmware.

I am anticipating a pretty quick turnaround for the next few projects, since @jkopel has had a couple of weeks of downtime and likely has already planned and created the designs for a few things. :wink:

Great to get another machine in the hands of the best Glowforge beta tester on the planet! :wink:
Thank you sir for your time in wringing the laser out for us, and the cool projects you share.

When the day comes that all betas are returned to their source and the Glowforges flow freely to eager makers the world over, then I shall name my own forge.

Until then I guess I am stuck with joshforge 2.
Not that there is anything wrong with that…

It’s true! We’re still checking over all units by hand before pressing them into service, and JFII went from factory, to our office for a once-over, to Maker Faire, to Josh.
