Thank you for another great video. The only way to learn about going to events is to either Go and do one or learn from someone that has done events and is willing to share their knowledge and experience with you. As for the person that went to the event and caused people to get sick, could you imagine if they didn’t have insurance or an LLC that would protect their personal assets? That could devastate their life both financially and personally. Bye the way, Have you upgraded to the XCS 2.0 yet? I upgraded and for some reason my F1 doesn’t process the business cards properly on either the Blue Diode or the IR laser. It worked fine before I upgraded. Anyway, Thanks again.

You’re absolutely right. The liability could be huge. I always like to err on the side of caution when it comes to those things. I am using 2.0 as well as the version prior. I’ve not had any issues yet. I’m not sure if I’ve engraved the business cards yet. I’ll try with w.0 and see if there are any issues in my end. Thanks for watching!

FYI - I use the large tool box in the Milwaukee Packout system as a case for my F1. I used the foam from the original packing. Had to shave a few layers from the top but it works great. I can send photo if you like.

[@industrialfringe953]

Great to know! I was looking at them the other day, although I was in a hurry and didn’t get a chance to get sizes, then got side tracked. Thanks so much for the suggestion!

[@teampatsy9856]

Would 3m sticky dots be ok to attach the circle to the measuring tapes ?

[@industrialfringe953]

You know, they may work, but if I’m selling them, I wanna make sure they’re on really good. I did end up selling 2 and bringing them back the next day. Thanks for watching!
