I use it most days.
I haven’t made amazing things - but amazing to me.
I love it.
It’s part of my life.
I wouldn’t go back.
It hasn’t “paid for” itself… but I made $60 with it at the end of a really tight month. I’d like those $60 to have been used on more materials; but I’m grateful it was there to get the kids enough new clothes to start school with a celebration instead of with last year’s clothes.
Gifts have been personal, plentiful, and fun. Weekly scout meetings have been enhanced. Kids toys repaired. Kids toys made.
I updated my own wardrobe with some Glowforge magic. Organized my house.
Little things, mostly…
(How wonderful of you to actually take the time to say “thank you”. I love being around the good people here. It sets an example for me when I get frustrated.)
Couldn’t have said it better myself! And on top of all that we have this wonderful, supportive camaraderie. There’s not a lot of maker interest among my family and friends (although they like getting the goodies!), so I have to get my maker support through you all. And you have totally come through!
People have had negative experiences - and they are well within their rights to report them
People have had doubts - and we have everything from history to conjecture to back these up
But getting honest, non-cheerleader, reports of how happy users are really helps as the (hopefully) last months to delivery count down
