β€œwhile 12 watts may not be as high as what you see out there a lot of times that extra wattage is more for marketing versus what you're actually going to use and this has been a really good sweet spot for cutting and especially for engraving” (watch from 12:01)

Brandon Cullum, Make or Break

β€œYou can see in my testing it does a really really good job of pulling in the smoke and then the filter does a good job of getting rid of the particles and the smoke and all that kind of stuff so in all of my testing inside of this room I haven't had to have this filtered anywhere outside, this machine took care of everything with how they had it built in and that was really really surprising and definitely makes sense why you could use this inside of a craft room because all that filtration is taking place” (watch from 7:16)

Portable, excellent option

I'm a hobby maker with a busy life and a small home. I can't have a large machine that sits idle 90% of the month. I love that I can put the Rendyr Optic away easily on a shelf and take it out only when I'm using it. It's great that it interfaces with LightBurn which is super easy to use. I've cut a lot of plywood boxes and toys. One tip I would suggest is that if you're going to do a lot of through cutting, get an inexpensive honeycomb bed. I found one that exactly fits the Optic so I can just set it on top and cut without burn marks on the back of my material.

A versatile addition to any shop

I've been using the Optic for over six months now, and I couldn't be happier with it. The setup and storage are a breeze, and I've used it to cut wood, plastics, fabric, and engrave everything from butcher blocks to personal electronics and ceramics. Its compact size offers endless possibilities. As a maker, I appreciate the pairing software (Lightburn) and the fine-tuned control over settings it provides, which sets it apart from the competition. The easy setup process is perfect for quick prototyping, and I'm thrilled with how I can create large engraving projects with such a small machine.

Easy to use and portable!

I have had my Optic for about four months. I was so surprised at how easy it was to set-up, I was basically engraving within 20 minutes. YouTube has tons of easy to follow tutorials for Lightburn software.

Since I have shown my engravings to my friends and family, I am now covered up with job requests. Some days I run my optic for 8-10 hours straight. It always provides consistent cuts and engravings. I have made instruments, patches, cutting boards, coasters, leather goods, stencils and even customized skateboards. The possibilities are endless! Love it!

Game changer!

Having Optic apart of the shop has really given me creative options that just haven't been available to me in the past. Not being limited to what size project I can use this on is really amazing. Being able to unfold this thing, take it off the mat, and lay it on a huge table for some laser work is something only Optic can offer. Super easy to use and you can toss it in the truck and take it anywhere. I've only use it a handful of times, but I can already see it becoming a staple tool for me and my work.
Highly recommend!

Portability at its finest

Love how portable it is, a little heavy but when packed it can easily be stored on a shelf.
I am looking forward in using the Optic along with my 3D printing business! You can always follow me on my Instagram channel @filamentsandthings for the latest projects i create with my Rendyr!
