[@LaserNUG]

Congratulations Robert! Hope you enjoy it!

[@computercreationz]

thanks Gord!

[@LaserGarage]

Awesome Robert. You’re gonna love it!

[@computercreationz]

I think so too! thanks for watching

[@mikekleinschmidt3671]

Looks nice Robert. In talking with you on the phone and the sales rep from the company yesterday, I'm pretty much sold on the Thunder Bolt Pro 32.

[@computercreationz]

oh I’m sure you will love that as well!

[@steinbierz]

Always love your videos! Is the bottom of the laser stout enough to use a tractor with forks to get it off the pallet and moved into your shop.

[@computercreationz]

It’s pretty stout and has casters on the bottom of it I would refer to Thunder laser about using a forklift and if it’s recommended

[@steinbierz]

@@computercreationzThank you! I somehow missed your response from a few months ago. I am about to pull the trigger on a Bolt Pro before the 2025 price hike…famous last words but it should be my last laser purchase!

[@1-Nice-Guy]

I noticed the Air Assist Pump is external, is the electrical connection right there in the back? I ask, because it would be nice to upgrade the pump, and use the same electrical connector so the Bolt can turn it on/off. The airline inlet being external is a huge plus. Thanks!

[@computercreationz]

Yes it makes plugging into external air source a piece of cake!

[@antkn33]

Very helpful video! I’m comparing the different bolts now. For your business, do you feel the regular bolt holds you back in any way compared to the plus or pro?

[@computercreationz]

Having had both the bolt and bolt pro 22 the bolt pro series is allot faster and has greater acceleration. It’s cut my tumbler engraving time by about 30%. The extra bed space has been awesome. The move up to the pro series has its advantages if you do allot of production and time is money.

@ thanks!

[@1-Nice-Guy]

Way too big to get down the stairs to our hobby room...LOL!

[@computercreationz]

oh ya I would consider the Bolt instead. it’s only a couple hundred pounds

[@1-Nice-Guy]

@@computercreationz yep! trying to decide between the Bolt or Bolt Plus. This is strictly for "fun" and not a business. ENJOY!

[@computercreationz]

@@1-Nice-Guy that’s awesome! You will love it

[@dnsummitt]

Can the base be removed? Wondering if we can stand this up on end so it can go through a regular door. Really woud like to get this down in my basement

[@computercreationz]

I believe so, all of there other lasers are designed to fit through a 36’ wide door

[@TheExtremeElementz]

I’m confused, if it’s shipped from China then how is Thunder USA going over their checklist and installing a US spec wiring harness? Or are they just reusing the crate that China sends them?

[@rcarroll05]

If it is like all the other Thunder Lasers, they are built to the USA specs in China and don't have to re-wire, etc when they arrive in the USA. Go to the Thunder USA page and read about that.

[@computercreationz]

unlike most all other lasers made in China Thunder Laser a are manufactured in china but on big difference is they are built top quality and don’t need to be rewired when they arrive in USA! there is a Thunder presence in several places in USA. Thunder laser is several steps above in quality compared to most other brands
