This is moved to the top of the list for my next purchase

[@itslauralambert]

I honestly am loving it- I would say if I wasn't but it's an amazing option for people who want to work with a laser but don't want the astronomical price point!

Hi Laura, since you cannot cut clear acrylic with the Glowforge Aura, can you etch clear acrylic?

[@anitaulmer]

I saw the limitation on the file size for Aura without a premium subscription. How has it worked out for you so far?

[@itslauralambert]

I'm currently on the premium trial so I haven't experienced that limitation yet, but I'll keep you posted!

I wonder if you can engrave pencils with the new Aura?

[@RiriW708]

Yes. I’ve seen a few people on Facebook do pencils.

So it is a diode laser or a co2 laser? What is the power?

[@ThingsKatieMakes]

It's a diode laser - looks to be 6watt

[@lioconnor24]

Can the glow forge cut all same materials that cricut can? Or do you need both?

[@ThingsKatieMakes]

Most materials, yes, but Vinyl is a no-no in Glowforge

[@itslauralambert]

It can do everything a cricut can but then also has additional capabilities because it's a laser!

[@RainorShine1]

Oh well no clear acrylic deal breaker. Sad guess no Lazer cutter for me
