[LS178] Holiday Prep & FREE Background Remover

The guys kick back for a fun, tool-packed episode full of maker updates and new toys. Between sick kids, glass jobs, and holiday prep chaos, they dive into easy-win UV products, quick-selling ornaments, and the classic “make something for the school principal” marketing trick. Alex shows off the all-new Laser Toolkit—a collection of shop calculators for overlap, pulse width, and job timing—plus the debut of a web-based background remover that’s free, fast, and wildly useful for photo engraving. It’s equal parts community catch-up and nerdy deep dive, wrapped in real shop talk and a lot of laughs.
