xTool just sent us their new xTool P3 80W CO2 Laser, and they told us to go big. So we did. We used the xTool P3 to build a massive 8-foot-tall Haunted Halloween Arch and pushed this machine to its limits.

In this video, we show you how to set up and use the xTool P3 pass-through system, cut large sheets of MDF, and assemble a full-scale project with precision. The xTool P3’s 80W CO2 laser power, auto pass-through alignment, and integrated chiller make it the ultimate workhorse for makers who want big results fast.
