- In this video we are going to get familiar with XTOOL Creative Space 2.0 and many of its new features while working with the XTOOL P2 to create some awesome clear acrylic edge lit signs. Some of the new features we will explore are the easy set material library, multi device management (with the XTOOL P2 and F1 at the same time), optimized tool paths, and more!
The two new features of the XTOOL Creative Space 2.0 software that I most appreciate are the multi device management and the latest integration with the easy set material library. Being able to simultaneously control more than one XTOOL machine with one instance of their software is a huge leap in capability that many XTOOL fans have been waiting for. The easy set material library with the interactive test cards will also speed up your workflow and result in less wasted material from failed tests!
Alongside the software, I've been experimenting with the XTOOL P2 to produce some cool edge lit acrylic signs. Working with the P2 and the newest release of Creative Space was super easy - I have a long format video coming out in the future covering more materials but it handled acrylic with ease.
I designed and now offer an LED edge lit acrylic stand kit for those of you interested in making similar projects. You can find that here:

Great video, thanks for sharing. Only thing i would add is instead of drawing a rectangle off the acrylic sheet so it doesn't cut it. Just draw a line across and set to cut. That way laser is not cutting thin air and wasting laser hours.
Great suggestion, I guess I just went with the default thing I always do when cutting a rectangle/square from a bigger sheet but that absolutely makes sense !
Great video and very informative. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you have any other ideas for Xtool content you'd like to see in the future
I want to buy the LED kit, but I have ultra F1 size- check website make smaller kits for smaller laser engravers?
Have you had a chance to determine if XCS 2.0 speeds up processes? I have seen proof of it on the F1 but not on the P2 yet. I own a P2 and have an F1 on the way. Use for hobby/side gig/small business. Great videos. Thanks.
I've only been working with the P2 on xcs2.0 but on the F1 it looks to be the case as you suggest. I suppose I could try and test by installing an older version of xcs and do a head to head !
Does anybody have experience in Lightburn and XCS 2.0? I wan´t to buy an co2 laser. but i´m not sure if i want xtool or an other brand,. Witch program gives me the most benefit? XCS sounds nice for beginners, but lightburn seems for me more powerful.
My idea is to by the xtool p2 because it seems lightburn compatible, but i heard Lightburn isn´t running smoothly and brings some issues with camera and auto-focus on the xtool p2 device.
where can i buy those vectors ?
I'd also love to know that.
On my F1 i am seeing very poor engraves from iphone on xcs vs laptop, project is in the cloud.
Interesting, since the graphic is in the cloud I guess what you're saying is that it is the same quality / resolution file ?
