These Laser Projects Are Even Better Than We Thought
So to kick off the new year, we went back and rewatched our own videos and pulled out the Top 5 laser projects of 2025 that actually held up. Not trends that disappeared. Not hype. Projects that are still relevant heading into 2026.
We’re breaking down what worked, why it worked, and what you should still be paying attention to if you’re building, making, or trying to make money with your laser.
In this video, we cover:
• The glass engraving project that taught us way more than we expected

• 5 surprising materials you can laser (and why that video accidentally sparked the Laser Loot Box idea 👀)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdDu061ZeAU
• UV printing 101 and why it exploded in 2025
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InpNtJl45Rs
• RFID and NFC keychains and why they’re sneakily powerful
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M68OYMDduM
• The video from 2022 that refuses to die and still dominates views today

We also talk real numbers, real lessons, and why some of these topics are about to matter even more in 2026.
If you’re into lasers, side hustles, testing weird materials, or just figuring out what actually works, this one’s for you.
