What it actually looks like here.

Everything else on this website claims that these machines stand in our own premises and work every day. This page is the evidence. Eighteen photographs from the Regionalladen Gedern and the Hirzenhain workshop, none of them staged and none of them tidied up first: extraction hose, window light, radiator, and the crate nobody had put away.

How the machines stand

The product images on the machine cards show a cut-out housing on white. That is honestly meant and still answers the wrong question: anyone putting a machine into their own shop needs to know how much bench it eats, where the hose goes and what still fits beside it. Here it stands the way it stands.

A view into the demo room in Gedern: on the left, on a sideboard, the xTool F1 with a white fume filter; in the background the xTool F2 Ultra UV with its orange screen, and a heat press beside it.
The whole room in one picture. Two sideboards, a radiator between them, one window — it needs no more than that, and it is no more than that. In the picture: xTool F1xTool F2 Ultra UV
The xTool F1 with its green shield stands next to a white fume filter on a light wooden worktop, a radiator on either side.
The F1 and its filter, head on. Extraction is not an accessory for later: without it half the shop smells of whatever is being engraved. In the picture: xTool F1
Close view of the xTool F1 running: a dark workpiece sits in a red jig on the base plate, the filter stands to the right.
Closer in, mid-run. The green glass is the laser shield — you can watch without goggles and without opening anything. In the picture: xTool F1
The Gedern work spot from further back: the xTool F1 and the fume filter on a dark sideboard between two radiators, a workbench with material on the left.
One step back. A sideboard, two radiators, daylight from both sides — the spot where the F1 has been working through its jobs for months. In the picture: xTool F1
The xTool F2 Ultra UV with its orange screen stands at the front of a sideboard, the dark xTool F2 Ultra behind it, a heat press to the right.
Two towers side by side: the F2 Ultra UV in front, the F2 Ultra behind. If you want to compare them, this is exactly where you stand during a session. In the picture: xTool F2 Ultra UVxTool F2 Ultra
Wide view of the demo spot in Gedern: xTool F2 Ultra UV and F2 Ultra on a light sideboard between two windows, a heat press on the right.
The same spot, all of it. What no product photo carries: the clearance behind for hose and cable, and the clearance in front where you stand. In the picture: xTool F2 Ultra UVxTool F2 Ultra
The xTool F2 Ultra head on: a dark tower on a wooden top, the control panel in front to the left, the honeycomb bed below.
The F2 Ultra at full height. The data sheet says 52 centimetres; what 52 centimetres do above a worktop is not something the number tells you. In the picture: xTool F2 Ultra
The xTool O1 Omni Printer stands on a dresser in the shop itself, its glass flap folded down, a glazed partition behind it.
The O1 Omni stands in the shop, not in a back room. Flap down, part in — it prints whatever customers hand across the counter. In the picture: xTool O1 Omni Printer
The xTool Self-Service Kiosk stands upright on a sideboard in the Regionalladen Gedern, its screen showing the catalogue: dog tag, notebook, pen and slate coaster. The till is behind it, lanyards hang above.
The station stands in the middle of the shop, three steps from the till. Whatever is picked on screen goes straight to the O1 Omni or the F2 Ultra UV — customers design while we keep serving. In the picture: xTool Self-Service Kiosk
The closed xTool P2 stands on a light-coloured workbench in the Hirzenhain workshop, a window with a lowered roller shutter behind it.
The first photograph from Hirzenhain. This is the P2 we demonstrate; what is sold today is the near-identical P2S. A metre wide, and the bench is full. In the picture: xTool P2(S)

What comes off them

A laser is not an exhibit, it is a machine that has to have produced finished goods by the evening. These four steps — clamp the blank, engrave, take it out, put it on the counter — are the actual reason there are machines here at all.

An untouched grey slate tile sits in a red jig on the base plate of the xTool F1.
This is how it starts: a raw slate tile with a broken edge, clamped down, not a line on it yet. In the picture: xTool F1
The same slate tile after the run, under the xTool F1: a scorpion engraved inside an ornamental frame.
The same tile after the run. The infrared laser removes the surface, nothing is added — what looks light is the stone underneath. In the picture: xTool F1
Close view of the engraving: a scorpion in an ornamental frame, light against dark slate.
Up close. The mid-tones come from the power per pixel, not from a halftone screen — which is why a tile like this still holds up from half a metre away. In the picture: xTool F1
The display in the Regionalladen Gedern: dozens of engraved slate tiles and coasters on a wooden counter, a wine bottle, glass and grapes motif at the front.
A counter full of them. This is not a sample collection for visitors, it is the display customers pick from — every piece made on the F1. In the picture: xTool F1
A lit Gröno table lamp, printed all round with photographic motifs, standing on a counter among laser-cut wooden first names.
A glass lamp from the furniture shop, printed and switched on. The ink sits directly on the glass and the light comes through it — an applied film gives you neither. In the picture: xTool O1 Omni Printer
A square bamboo coaster on a dark wooden table, printed with the graffiti lettering “Fabrice” in green with a red crown on a speckled, colourful ground.
Full colour on bamboo, printed straight onto the wood. This is precisely what a laser cannot do: it removes material, it does not add colour — green next to red next to blue stays a job for the printer. In the picture: xTool O1 Omni Printer
Two pale blue plastic lunch boxes side by side on the base plate of the xTool O1 Omni, both printed on the lid with the same graffiti lettering “Fabrice”.
Two boxes, one motif, one set-up. The print goes onto the curved lid itself — and that is the difference from a sticker somebody has to cut to shape first. In the picture: xTool O1 Omni Printer
Laser-cut plywood lettering on a pale wooden table, one piece at the front with a blossom and a colour gradient, unprinted pieces and engraved bamboo coasters beside it.
Two machines on one piece: the F2 Ultra UV cuts the outline, the O1 Omni prints the colour gradient onto it. The pale pieces next to it show what one looks like before the print. In the picture: xTool F2 Ultra UVxTool O1 Omni Printer

Where these pictures come from

Taken in August 2026 in Gedern and Hirzenhain, on a phone, on an ordinary working day. No photographer, no flash, no tidying up beforehand. Nothing was edited except the size and the file format.

From the workshop in Hirzenhain there is exactly one photograph so far, the P2. The F2 and the M2 run there just the same, and there is no picture yet of what comes off them either — on a working day nobody thinks about the camera. As soon as there are photographs, this is where they go.

The cut-out product images on the machine cards come from xTool instead. They show the housing cleanly from every side, no cables and no neighbours — the photographs here show both.

Next step

Your material. Your machine. One hour.

The demo costs nothing and ends without a signature. It ends with you knowing which machine fits what you are planning and which one you can skip.
