hi
perhaps ryan mckay can offer up what they were looking at.
a 60W or better laser perhaps that we know can cut at least .5 in wood
plastic, tile etc, and engrave/mark on stone, metal etc . With as big a
bed as we can get right?
I did a bit of looking from your list from a couple weeks ago and came
up with a $6k estimate. The nice thing is there is a wide variety of kit
at a variety of prices so we can go lower if needed
Boss Laser, Universal laser, Trotec, brands seem optimal.
Morphon has a 130W for around $5k, but the manuals are in chinese
Thanks
