lets build a sci-fi crate . . . and let's use what we have. Let's build a Sci-Fi crate out of found parts, lets modify an old tool box, a tackle box, or whatever box. Let's spend a little time with our imagination and build something out of nothing!!

@@ChrisPage68 the truth is I didn’t want to remove the Festool labels. I wanted to keep them, and I wanted any that saw it to see what it was. You could totally sand it off, but I chose to keep it.

Wow! Just wow! I have watched several of your videos. By far this one is the best. What I liked the most is how you achieved mind blowing special effects with just spray paint cans. No fancy equipment. This video is an example of what it means to have an understanding of art. Just like it is said that a good photographer can take great photo even with a box camera I can say a great artist, like you, can create masterpieces just out of scrap and spray paint cans. Thank you, for sharing. A good choice of music too.

"Compatibility with Lightburn" - if only :-( I love my P2, but xTool really needs to provide the information the LB crew needs to properly support the machine. I loved all the crates. If only I were as creative.

Is it not fully compatible? I’ve used Lightburn with it, but I’ll admit not as much as the XTool software (which is pretty great.)
@ulaB
Ай бұрын
@@TheSmugglersRoomIt can control the laser via USB, but that's about it. Not via Wifi or network AFAIK and none of the features that make the P2 what it is - like the cameras, rotary tools and such. From what I've heard xTool is not providing necessary documentation on their APIs or are not answering questions. XCS is nice and the new 2.0 beta is promising, but a lot of people are used to LB and it still has a lot of professional extra features. So I kind of wish it would be better supported.

Do you read Aurebesh? If so it could have been cool to remove the English Festool and Sustainer3 raised lettering from the box and simply put those same labels on the box in it. Also all of the SCOMP ports made me start wondering how hard it would be to make one of those into a functional locking mechanism, maybe based off of a door handle.
@TheSmugglersRoom

I do read Aurebesh 😉. I actually left those two labels on there as I thought it was sort of nice to maintain an element of the original. Sort of a nod to Festool.
