I set out to purchase a laser engraver a couple of months ago. After lots of searches I ended up finding a lot of info on two sites in particular, this being one of them. I thought I would document my selection and purchase process and share with the community. I got a lot of info from here and hope that sharing this helps others.
If you have any questions, let me know.
Here is an acrylic edge lit sign that I made for my daughter for Christmas. I cut all the parts on the laser, bent the acrylic base on a heater strip that I made and then assembled it. I hope she loves it!
