5 features and 5 projects with the Atomstack A5 M50!
The Atomstack M50 adds some great useful features while improving on the 5.5 watt laser module technology. In this video I'll do my usual tech breakdown, talking about the technology of the laser and explaining some of the features that help differentiate it from intro models. I'll also work on some laser projects to give you ideas while testing everything from engraving to cutting performance. I'm excited to intro a cool geek project which can help for organizing electronics or anything small that you may want to organize.
The overall summary of the Atomstack M50 itself surprised me. Laser engravers usually have beginner models that don't feature endstops or an Estop, however I found those features to be beginner friendly. Every laser engraver should have those..they prolong the life of the device, make it easier to use, and safer. I show examples of how these work and give demos for those that may be looking to buy a laser engraver.
