Alex and Kyle reveal the next evolution of Laser Everything’s educational content: the Ultimate Laser Processing Guide. They discuss why it’s replacing the original LightBurn Crash Course, what new topics it covers—from safety and workspace prep to identifying your laser source—and how they’re rebuilding it into 126 short, focused lessons. The conversation expands into practical talk about beam alignment, dot size, and why short videos beat hour-long deep dives. Plus, they demo the new MakeArmy.io SVG nesting tool and tackle audience questions about UV lasers, photo engraving, and beam expanders.
