Q&A
- The Glowforge Aura is the first Craft Laser, letting you unleash your creativity from your home.
- The Glowforge Basic is the standard home offering for personal printing.
- The Glowforge Plus is the premium home offering for the ultimate personal printing experience, ideal for small craft businesses.
- The Glowforge Pro is the most powerful and capable Glowforge model, suitable for big projects, businesses of any size and shared use.
Differences between the machines include:
Speed: Glowforge Aura uses a blue, 6 watt, solid state laser for powerful cut speeds. Compared to the Glowforge Basic and Plus 40 watt CO2 laser, Glowforge Pro uses a 45 watt CO2 laser which lets it cut at speeds up to 12X faster than Glowforge Aura.
Material Size: Glowforge Aura works with materials 12” x 12” size. It can cut materials up to 1/4" thick, and engrave materials up to 3/4" thick with the cutting tray removed. The Glowforge Basic, Plus and Glowforge Pro work with materials up to 18” deep, 20.4” wide, and 2” thick. The maximum printable area is about 11” x 19.5”.
With the Passthrough slot, the Glowforge Pro lets you make oversized prints. It can work with materials 20” wide, up to ¼” thick, and as long as you want. To use the Passthrough slot, you print the first 10 inches, slide the material through the slot, and repeat. That means you can create huge, dramatic products, including furniture!
Laser Class: Glowforge Basic, Plus and Glowforge Aura are both Class 1 lasers (like a DVD player). The Glowforge Pro Passthrough slot makes the Pro model a Class 4 laser which requires the person using it to have laser safety training (included with your purchase). You should not use the Pro in public or around kids without installing the included Pro Shields.
All machines come with a 12-month warranty.
can anyone tell me if this glowforge aura craft laser machine comes with the hose that you stick out your window?
No it comes as an extra but unless you are crafting in a very well ventilated room or outdoors, you will need it.

I've noted that a customer was unhappy with the machine as it wouldn't cut clear or glass materials. This is rectified by coating the surface to be lasered with a non reflective paint as it wont work on reflective materials
I’ve not tried this I just managed to cut a sheet of black acrylic . Hobbycraft are useless, they used to have classes on glowforge which is why I bought it, you get no support and is worst thing I have bought. It’s all in America so no support there and to get access to files etc is 19.99 a month paid yearly and far too expensive.and I only wish I could get my money back as not a year old yet and biggest waste of money. Hobbycraft don’t have anyone you can get advice on with these machines. I have Cricut which is great but for money this glowforge is the worst thing I have bought. Sorry couldn’t be more helpful
