Stay Tuned. BIG things are coming in November 2024 👀

It’s a marketing technique. They did it last year too.

It’s not uncommon - trying to build up buzz, excitement and anticipation. I suppose it works because a lot of folks do it but I’m not a marketing professional.

It’s kind of like promising features will be out “next year” and 10-years later we’re still waiting but the man doing it became the richest in the world as a result. Apparently lots of people have way more patience than many of us :grinning:

You’re right, I get it. What grinds my gears is putting something on hold just to wait for the dog and pony show. We all have things to do and if 1F has something I want, I’m ready to buy it NOW. But to add extra time and cost only to justify someone’s marketing/business degree is the best way to make me want to go elsewhere.

Hello welcome to Sunnyview Hospital, or Bob’s grocery store. We may…or may not have the products or services you require. Just have a seat and play with yourself till we decide it’s time to show you.

See how that doesn’t work in ANY other part of your life?

@John let’s be thankful there are products being released (vs stagnation), and if you want it great then buy it. If you don’t want it or have objections to how it’s marketed, just don’t buy or participate. It’s nice we have options, let the company do their thing and vote with your money.

good advice. I’m just not wired for apathy. As my coworkers and management can attest.

Well, I guess the 64 watt J-Tech laser could be considered to be BIG

I totally get that waiting a week for a product can feel like an eternity, especially when you’re excited about it, even if you don’t know what you are excited about :slight_smile: . In today’s world, we’re all used to instant gratification (see my amazon shopping history), but it is just a week for goodness sake.

It’s not just a week. It’s almost 3 weeks so far since the BIG announcement, with the rest of the week to go to find out if putting a project aside was a waste of time. What you guys aren’t getting is that I would prefer to give my $ to 1F. But having to wait for the monkey dance is making that difficult.

Every company promotes before a release of a new product. Nothing new here. But i get it. Money burns a hole in my pocket too, especially for awesome stuff OF puts out. Good problem to have.

How long will this announcement last? 1 week or the rest of November?

how much/ deep can a 64watt laser cutter cut?

I am waiting to see what they announce this week and then watching Hamilton Dilbeck’s YouTube review on Black Friday where he will give an in depth review on the Onefinity Elite and Sience Altmill. I have been debating which one to buy and maybe Onfinity is going to have a BIG announcement to combat the market share they are losing to Sience Labs as you can see all the Altmill they are selling on their order page. In my research I believe Onefinity is a more professional company with better quality control and a better users community, but I believe Sience labs has used their technical explanation of rigidity to convince people their machine is better and people are buying because of that. Price is not that much different when you consider the value of the Masso controller you get with the Onefinity.

Cool stuff! First question, will there be a BYO motor option for the 95% of Elite owners who have purchased a Z brake, and now have a spare?

There will not.
Always good to have a spare motor on hand incase any of the 5 go out and you have a same day deadline! :stuck_out_tongue:

Definitely getting this…

Can it be mounted along the y axis? I rarely use the far right section of my machine. Thinking I’d just install it semi permanently there.

How long of a workpiece can you work with for the elite version?
