Let me know what you think of this design! Save $1000 with promo code MOB24 (Limited to first 24) here: geni.us/rendyr
The fact that they can just toss out $1000 off codes illustrates how overpriced this unit is normally. It looks like a really nice design, but in no way is this a $3000 laser machine.
Thanks for your feedback. We’d like to clarify that the $1000 discount code is limited to the first 24 orders only, as mentioned by Brandon at the end of the video. This discount is a special offer for the Make or Break Shop community to celebrate the start of our launch.

Laser pecker LX1, and LX1 Max already in the market, and seem very similar?
@@mikiauto73 Hey! Glad to see that you're looking at various machines. We haven’t had the opportunity to test them ourselves but here’s what we see looking at the LaserPecker LX1 series. First, they are unenclosed and without filtration, resulting in safety hazards (which they don't properly describe). They also don't include a cutting mat. The add-on cutting plate, enclosure, and air purifier (only available for pre-order as of 6/3/24) take up lots of space, mostly defeating the foldable nature of the LX1 series, and almost double the total cost of the setup. The cantilevered fold-out arm has no support at the end which reduces accuracy and speed. When comparing them by looking at the whole picture, we see the Optic as a much better and complete integrated product for a very fair price.

I'm so confused why all the haters in the comments are trying to compare this to a co2 laser. Most diode laser companies will advertise the input wattage for marketing, and typically, they have a power output of around 10w. Rendyr is advertising their actual OUTPUT power of 12w. I think this is a very well thought out machine, not to mention manufactured and supported right here in the USA.🇺🇸
I wouldn't compare it to a Co2, but there are a laundry list of diode lasers out there in the 20w and 40w ranges. As you say, this may be input only and/or marketing, but XTool at least states their 40w module laser is true output. If you can point me at something that shows that the true output is lower, that is interesting. But 12w still seems low and a miss ultimately. But those other modules are physically larger and probably wouldn't fit the overall aim, which is quick setup and easy cutting. This is an intriguing machine becasue it would fit in my big suitcase and probably travel well. I'll keep it on my radar for when it gets to 20w.
For the space used, this looks like exactly what I need. Between this and a cricket, the possibilities are endless. On my way to buy one now.
the idea and concept is done, I like it
Its a really cool idea and seems to be well thought out too.
Excited for more versions of this!!
Brilliant design. Especially for crafters with limited space like me. The only drawback - I'm in South Africa... 🙄
ah man, it seems like a perfect fit for the crafting space.
That's a cool unit, great job on the video
thanks!
If there was a way that this could also be adapted to engrave on larger curved / irregular pieces like tote bottles, golf clubs, etc, that would make it the only machine needed.
I'm always happy to see a kickstarter project reach completion. The built in filtration is a great idea, and the form factor is cool. I just do more cutting than engraving, so it's not really for me.
The filtration was the most surprising in a good way when I used it
Cool looking design for a laser.
Pretty wild
Can you do a tutorial cutting Acrylic? I am looking for a machine to make Acrylic jewelry. Ty
Very interesting and innovative design that I think would be great for a lot of products. But a couple of questions:
Now does cutting work on that flat matt without a honeycomb bed does it leave marks?
It would be interesting to see how the risers work and is it compatible with a rotary?
Do they have plans for other heads like maybe a IR module?
Interesting concept. Would be great for customizations at a craft show. Curious at to speed as is it limited at all my the cantilever design, flashback if cutting, accuracy of the X axis i.e. if the movement in the Y axis twists the x gantry at all.
I’ve used some cantilever designs before and this felt really solid. The metal mat locks into place at the bottom and helps make everything more rigid
Thanks @markferrick10! The Optic’s gantry is actually not entirely cantilevered but supported by a wheel (see 3:59 in the video) which together with the solid hinge connection ensures it’s always level, robust, and produces consistent results.
Do a review on the LaserPecker LX1 Max please!
Hmmmm that sure is different and very expensive, ok about the cutting board, I see two open lines (the fold lines) so when cutting, if the material is over one or both of the fold lines, I guess it would cut into the felt backing? I can't really tell from the video if it has some kind of protection or not, but as it has to fold at that point, I will guess not.
Thanks, and please keep making more video's.
Hi there, We designed the Optic’s cutting mat to resist normal laser cutting operations in a similar way to conventional honeycomb beds. The top surface is all metal, including the folding hinges made from flexible and durable spring steel. While laser cutting will result in scoring marks, they do not impact the cutting mat’s functionality. The alignment grid is machined deeper to maintain its visibility. In addition, it's easy and quick to wipe off any residue from cutting materials.
@@rendyrinc Hi, many thanks for your reply and letting me know how you constructed the cutting mat, I was sure that you would have covered every aspect of the design, but still I just had to ask ;) hey nice bit of kit, but a bit out of my range for a diode laser ;( keep up the great work.
Very cool design. Looks like it could be a option however the price IMO is way too high. Maybe if they succeed and grow that will change but for now it is a deal breaker for me to buy one.
How much is a replacement filter? Considering something like the xtool f1 filter is like £90 to replace, and lasts 6 months maybe
Hey! Thanks for your comment and interest. The Optic’s replacement filters come in 2-Packs for $79 ($39.50 each).
I see 2-3 slight “problems”:
1.) It is slightly more difficult to figure out/see exactly where it will engrave, especially when not using the matt.
2.) The hight of materials, as well as potential waviness, seem very restricted! Many other cheaper diode lasers have auto leveling via stepper motor and height detection DURING engraving, and don’t rely on a roller in a specific location.
3.) The overall concept saves storage and transportation space, but is very limiting otherwise. Including (inexpensive) expansion kits, higher power laser modules etc.
Interesting product (for specific applications)!
Best wishes
11:10 - "it has a flame sensor, and if there is a fire or flare up , it is going to cut out the power to the sensor" - brilliant mistake : kill the messenger approach :)
ha my bad, kill the power to the LASER!
Assume they will ship with a metric grid outside the USA?
Edit: just saw the price, $3,000.- ? Seriously?
Hey! Thanks for your questions. Great feedback on the question for a metric grid version. You’re the first to ask and we don’t have this option yet, but we’ve passed this on to our product team.
Regarding your question about pricing, the Optic Portable Laser Cutter offers a range of advanced features and unparalleled portability with built-in filtration (costs extra with every other laser cutter), setting it apart from other machines in the market. Our goal is to provide a high-quality, versatile tool that meets the highest safety standards, backed by US-based expert customer support. We’ve already seen the Optic create tremendous value by enabling creativity and productivity for our customers. On top of that, we’re offering $1000 off for a very limited quantity for the Make or Break Shop community to celebrate the start of our launch - That’s only $1995 while they last, which makes the Optic an even more phenomenal deal in our opinion.
If you have any further questions or need more information, we’re happy to help!
This is a great concept. I wish the laser module is 20 watts instead of 12 watts.
Nice idea but 3k for a 10wlaser sorry thatsnot going to sell. Small portable 10w much cheaper
good idea, but way to expensive!!
3k usd for basically a 10w laser? seriously?
Seriously. Just buy the new xTool FI Ultra and you get both a 20W diode laser and a 20W fiber laser in one machine.
Laser cutting requires space for safety, exhaust, stocking material, assembly, sanding, laptop rerunning jobs...
I cut 95% of the time so this is not for me. While cool, it is not solving my problems.
Better exhaust, quieter operation, faster job, camera (to avoid the very problem that occured in the demo of overlapping jobs), less soot on the cut, dealing with non perfectly flat materials, auto focus are features I am in the market for.
I wish the price was a bit lower
I honestly think that this laser will not make into the die hard hobbyist world,at least not for people like me.$3000.00 for that, nope!
Surely if you cut something the laser is going to ruin the bed

Wheel getting dirty and skip.
We appreciate your concern and can assure you that this has never been an issue with any of the hundreds of Optics in use. Dirt and other residue is not likely to accumulate where the wheel runs on the cutting mat, and additionally the bearings are sealed to prevent any degradation from dust or particles. Hopefully this helps address your concern!
Interesting design but WAY to expensive
Its too expensive can get a 50w co2 for that price
Nah, nothing
Normally you should NOT talk about this laser, as it is a confidential model.
Not exactly sure what you mean, this is available to purchase and I worked with the Rendyr team on this video...about as public has it can get.
$1k tops
I'm cool unit with uncool price
At 3k I'll have to pass.
