I’m hoping the sales guy/webteam sees this post from Glowforge, but when we got our laser we also happily received proofgrade material pack as well since there was a slight delay When I go to the shop I see everything separated by material which is great, but it would be good to have different ‘bundles’ (e.g. a starter pack, bulk pack, etc) and give them some creative names by some creative people? Since my family in the NW decided to pick up a laser with my referral code I would like to send them a starter pack of proofgrade material like we received so they can quickly get up and running? Thanks for listening and consideration of making 1 click buying.
Glowforge says they welcome ideas like yours, but to post them in Problems and Support. I know it seems counter intuitive to post ideas in problems, but that is what they want. Not a bad idea though. They could also bundle together a bunch of materials and designs as a package.
Cheers. I was not exactly sure where to post and idea - there is no idea section, but moved it. Looking forward to helping and getting others excited for their Glowforge and feel a starter kit would make it that much easier to learn and get up an running! I will make my own bundle/kit once the referral credit come through
Yes it would seem an easy thing for them to do to offer the PG starter pack for $150 in the shop.
Also a sample pack with the smallest sheet of every material would nice and easy to do. It might get bigger over time though and eventually get impractical.
Thank you for the excellent suggestion – I’ve passed it to the team! And yes, for future reference, this is a great place to post suggestions and requests as well as problems. If you have more ideas, just open a new thread!
