    Re: New to laser questions about buying one.

    I'm looking to spend about 5k for a 60 - 90 watt laser. I'm not spending 10k on a machine I'm not sure I'll even use much.

    It seems like having them screwed down ever 18 - 24" helps straighten out the bows if they arent straight but that's a good idea also
