The Creality Falcon A1C is small, with an autofocus bed, a built-in camera, and 
quick results, which is why I’m curious about it for craft shows and personalized
work. This is a first look, not a full review, and I have more projects planned 
with it.

I show how to swap between the 10W diode and the 1.2W infrared modules, then go 
over the workspace and autofocus bed. I connect it to my shop laptop and start on
a basswood bookmark, using autofocus and the camera to frame it.

I use both modules on basswood and metal, and I mention why firmware updates matter.
It cut and engraved faster than I expected, though there are tradeoffs in power 
compared to bigger machines.

My first impression is that it has real potential for quick personalization at a
craft show. I’ll share more as I make more projects with it.
