This is great! Never saw the potato one before. :rofl: :rofl:

Call it a 3d printer for all I care, but if you call it “pews” or “zaps” and “zooms” I will always throw things.

Happy birthday @Docsis!
If you just stick with “Glowforge,” that’s all you need. :slight_smile:

It makes or shapes things by use of fire, and cuts, forms and creates new conditions. And it glows - both the button, the laser, and faces when they create something.

When I was first told about it, I was just told about “Glowforge,” it wasn’t called a 3D printer nor any other kind of printer, just “Glowforge.” I think the description of a forge fits it very well.

Let’s go with ink or toner being a printer, gf and the like is a carver/cutter, and 3D as a sculpter.
