Y'all, we have been having so much fun
playing with our brand new M1 Ultra that
I had to put together a video
highlighting some of these amazing
projects that the M1 Ultra and I have
been making that my Cricut just simply
could never do. Whether it's because of
that amazing laser, the amazing
engraving, or anything in between, I
think you're going to be impressed. So,
let's go ahead and dive in. If you're
brand new around here, I'm Tanner. I
teach people how to craft at Makers
Going to Learn. We have an amazing
platform, so check it out at the links
down below. Hit that subscribe button if
you're new around here and give the
video a thumbs up. But let's go ahead
and dive in to these
projects. Number one, my most
anticipated project that I plan on doing
for every single get together are these
amazing acrylic cake toppers. And guys,
guys, guys, if you are not holding the
phone to know that you can make acrylic
cake toppers that are super sturdy, like
I'm talking like these are legit that
you are able to make and sell, you could
literally like if I had to make back my
investment for this machine as fast as
possible, I would be doing cake toppers
all the time that I research cake
toppers, selling locally, um selling on
Etsy, everything in between. Y'all, I
love me some cake toppers. And this one
right here is so adorable. Um, this is
something that my Cricut could never do
because of the acrylic. Like y'all, this
is thick, thick, thick acrylic. I am in
love and obsessed with this right here.
Okay, this is something that you could
take custom orders for. I love being
able to fill the material. It's super
high quality. If you did wood, you would
have to paint it um and make it, you
know, more food safe. This is a lot more
food safe for a cake. I truly feel like
this is something I can sell with
confidence. It's not like, oh, I could
sell it or it could be something you can
do. This is something you totally can
do. Um, and it's super super awesome.
So, I highly recommend if you're on the
fence about an M1 or just a laser in
general, think about all the things you
can do that comes with acrylic that
could make the machine worth it for you.
Next up is something that I want to
share with you guys, which is not only
can the M1 Ultra cut really detailed
wood, I mean guys, let's get real. My
Cricut could never cut this detailed of
wood, okay? And to take it to the next
level, I also want to show you this
project right back here, which is
adorable because not only can you cut
wood with the M1 Ultra, but with both of
these projects right here, guess what?
It printed on wood. Y'all, y'all, y'all,
game changer. Bet you never thought you
could print on wood with this machine.
Now you can. It's really awesome. I love
how high-end printed wood feels. Like it
feels good, it looks good, it looks
vintage in a way, and it just looks so
professional. My Cricut could never do
that. So, I really want you to consider
what projects you would be cutting very
detailed wood and then could you print
on top of it because the X tool M1 Ultra
can totally do that, which is super
super exciting.
Now, I love the ability that the machine
can cut and a lot of what we've been
talking about is cutting wood, cutting
acrylic, but I kind of want to switch
gears and I want to share with you
something that I'm really intrigued by
that a lot of these projects has
similarities, which is, you know, our uh
awesome cutting board, our coaster, our
little picture, our little um tag bag,
our pin. A lot of these on the table
have something that I think you're going
to be blown away by. It is something
that has blew me away and it's super
prof professional, super incredible, and
I know you're going to love it. And
that, my friends, is being able to
engrave. Being able to engrave wood and
being able to engrave anything like this
is so high-end. One thing I love are
these little tags or these available a
lot of these I call these patches. So
these patches that you could easily
adhere or sew onto hats and things like
that. This is so fun. The machine can
actually engrave these patches for you
and you're not having to print on them.
They are truly engraved, right? You're
able to go in and emboss in that, which
is super high-end, which is similar for
a lot of these projects. Okay, guys.
Like, I mean, being able to engrave on a
pen, hello. Super, super fun. doing the
cutting board, being able to engrave on
coasters. This is slate, and this is so
high-end, so adorable. One thing I want
you to notice is this. Like really,
really precise. The font of Ephesians
down there, holy cow, so small, but it
looks oh so good. And I love that
ability. And what I love about this
engraving is, guys, it's simply done
with the laser. Whether you're engraving
on wood, on slate, on um any type of
pen, any type of rubber, any type of
leather, like you're going to get a
really, really great experience when it
comes to this process that, let's just
be real, would never be available when
it comes down to your Cricut machine.
And that's one thing I've really been
impressed with. Like being able to
engrave and then kind of get this like
printed look onto wood is really fun
because it's available with the 4 in1
capability of this M1 Ultra. So, I've
been really impressed with that. I've
been loving it. Another thing that I
thought was really unique is some of the
business cards. So this is again like a
little metal business card that the
laser can um go ahead and engrave on. So
again, super professional, something
really, really sturdy that is stand out
from the crowd that your machine can do.
But again, the Cricut can do a version
of this, but when you get to feel it,
when you get to hold it, when you get to
see it, it has no competition. like you
will be very very very impressed by this
which I think you will love. Okay, so
super super fun. Um, next up I wanted to
show you like you can cut out very thin
dog tags and then you can have the
machine actually engrave on this as
well. So again, super super awesome
things. Like what I want you to
understand with this series and what I
want you to understand just with this
machine is that it's just raising your
capacity. It's raising your ability to
do things you would never have thought
possible. For example, I want to show
you this little puzzle we did. So, this
is a um wood and acrylic puzzle combo.
So, you can see it's called Ruby. And
what we've done is quite a few things.
We have cut the wood base out. Okay. We
cut a base. Then on the base, we were
able to go ahead and have this pattern.
All right. Love, love, love the pattern.
Next, we were able to cut the kind of
like puzzle size, which is the white.
The white then adheres onto the base.
And then we came in with acrylic and we
were able to cut out the name Ruby. Come
on. You could do a version of this with
your Cricut, but you would probably cry
a couple of times. You would probably
have quite a few craft fails. And when
you believe that time is money, that is
the value of investing in a machine like
this. So, this is the M1 Ultra by X
Tools. We've been playing around with it
for quite a few months, and I've been
having a lot of fun with it, and I'm so
excited to have this brand new series
where we can kind of dive in and share
with you all that we're making, whether
we're cutting keychains, uh, tags,
markers, anything of the sorts. It is
super super fun and I am super super
excited to have brought you this video.
