[LS179] New Gear, JP+ Fest & LightBurn 2.0 Plans

Between sickness, chaos, and way too many lasers on the way, Alex, Kyle, and Rheannon hold down the fort for a laid-back but productive episode. Rhiannon teases her new travel-accessory video featuring Johnson Plastics Plus leatherette gear (with a Dragonite passport cover for Japan), Alex previews his upcoming community-building talk for JP+ Fest, and the crew outlines their next major project: LightBurn Crash Course 2.0. They dive into the flood of new machines arriving for review, talk shop about the Index X rotary setup, and debate the terrifying joy of using UV lasers. It’s an episode packed with updates, planning, and the usual dose of maker mayhem.
