Wow, those are amazing! I ordered the laser a few days ago and just found your videos! Thank you for great tutorials and showing us the capabilities of the S1! I like how you structured your content direct and to the point. You now have another subscriber and thumbs up!
👍 I was just reading the email that XTool sent me for this promo, it's a fantastic looking setup and will probably do about anything I can imagine. Thank you for another excellent video and demo! 👍👍👍
Very informative and interesting videos. I am looking all over youtube at Xtool S1 videos for handling and result and you are one of few that shows the whole process and how to do things when it is done. Love the staining of the last piece and that you show things in different light and angles and also materials. You are also low key funny. "Use a cheap brush for this" *brings out the expensive one*. Thanks for a good video.
Good morning.. beautiful work as usual.. I was just wondering where you get your wood from? Also, do you know how long they'll be holding their early bird sale, as I won't have the money to purchase it for about 2 weeks? Thanks, Jim Brady..
I buy my wood on Amazon or ocooch hardwoods . I believe the early bird special is only till 10/21. Then the 200$ off coupon for purchases over $2000 will work till 11/2
Hey I got the same machine but have been unable to get the darkness like on your nightmare before Christmas. Is there any suggestions? Settings? Xtool has been somewhat helpful until recently when they told me my old coaster with a much lower powered machine was spray painted on.
Well put together and informative tutorials....! I have been looking into the purchase of a laser engraver and wondering if you have ever used other brands to compare against the xTool s1. How easy is it to use for a beginner with not a lot of computer skills....? Thx : )
I used many laser engraving machines. I currently own 9 of them. Here is a video where I compared a few of different brands and machines. I have zero computer skills and I can tell you is really easy. It could be as easy as importing a design, scale to size and push the start button The Ultimate Diode Laser Comparison!

Thank you for answering my question so quick, but I have another question..... I scroll saw and love to do inlay from time to time, but it's tedious to scroll. Enter your videos... since watching a couple of your videos where you do the laser inlay (why I now want a laser engraver).... I didn't catch how you determine how deep to make the cut in the main piece of wood so it accepts the inlayed cut piece. Is it just trial and lots of error or is there a more scientific way to know before hand....? Hope my question makes sense. Thanks again....... Ed
Hi Ed. The pocket for the inlay is really just a deep engraving. Mostly try and error. The pocket have to be shallower that the inlay piece, I can easily sand the inlay piece flush to the surface
This is just beautiful. Where do you find your patterns for the 3D engraving? Love how you showed the difference in woods and the contrast considerations. Going to watch you work. Subscribed!
i absolutely love all of your videos. Sooo informative. My only complaint is that it is often so hard to hear you because of your mic set up. But awesome video
May we know how long it took the machine to do the tulip engraving in the yellow heart. Maybe you mentioned it in the video, but I didn't hear. Thanks for the well done videos about your work. They are informative and entertaining.
Really nice boxes. The engraving really makes the boxes look expensive. Have you ever figured out how much it costs to make an engraving like the tulips? Just the operating cost.
@@woodworkingwithSkyler ty, im trying to decided which one to get, plus the price, im retired an limited on money. but want one so i can do alot more things for my church an my hand are getting old, scroll sawing taking longer.
@@woodworkingwithSkyler thank you so much! Love your videos by the way! Honestly surprised you only have 11k followers but I’m sure that will change very soon!
If you're going to show something close up, please don't stick it so damn close to the lens...and more importantly HOLD IT STILL so we can actually see it

Great video. How did you decide what to change the settings to?
Such a great tutorial and so detailed! Thanks so much

Enjoy the videos. Where do you get your photos or drawings that you engrave like the tulips for example?

is there depth to that engraving? or is it a 3d image? it looks great! still deciding if i should get an f1 or s1
There is a little depth but only about 1-2 mm
Skyler, great videos! I really like these images. Can you tell me where these images are available? Thanks, keep making great videos!
I bought them on etsy. They are from seller GF5Bucks. Not affiliated with them, dont know them but they have good designs
This is just beautiful. Where do you find your patterns for the 3D engraving? Love how you showed the difference in woods and the contrast considerations. Going to watch you work. Subscribed!
Thank you. I bought the design on Etsy
@@woodworkingwithSkyler can you please link the shop?
Great video..Is that a 3d image you are using? If so did you have to convert it?
How long does it take to engrave that 5x5 piece?
i absolutely love all of your videos. Sooo informative. My only complaint is that it is often so hard to hear you because of your mic set up. But awesome video
Thank you.Sorry about that, working on it
I heard her great. Actually had to turn my headset down a bit.
I bought an S1 🎉 I used your link too 😊
Awesome! Thank you! let me know if you have any questions
I ordered the 20 W S1 bundle. Will the 20W engrave like this? Maybe a bit slower or a few passes ? Great video
Yes, it will engraved just as good. More power only makes a difference when cutting or doing inlays
@@woodworkingwithSkyler Can the 20W still do inlays? Just much slower? Thank you for your reply. You have a great channel.
@@sbr-synrosimbugracing9338yes but slower

Skyler, where did you get these photos from to do this 3d ish style engraving?

Yes it does
@@woodworkingwithSkyler ty, im trying to decided which one to get, plus the price, im retired an limited on money. but want one so i can do alot more things for my church an my hand are getting old, scroll sawing taking longer.
Hey Skyler can you please do a video on laser engraving portraits with XTool S1
How thick is the wood you used for the tulip engraving?
Half inch
Thanks for the great videos ❤️
Thanks for watching!
What’s the max thickness it can cut cedar?
About a half an inch. I cut hard maple half inch but it took 3 passes
@@woodworkingwithSkyler thank you so much! Love your videos by the way! Honestly surprised you only have 11k followers but I’m sure that will change very soon!
