    Need advises about what machine get to cut acrilic

    Hello,i was looking for a cutting machine and i find this site.I am new in this area and i recently became out off work and i if i find a small cutter for acrilic i might have a few works to do (not realy heavy only cut a few pieces of acrilic most in circles).
    The working area that i need is aprox 1 A4 sheet.
    I need to cut acrilic (4 to 8 mm).
    I have aprox.1000eu(not much i know but...)
    i saw those in ebay and its good because of the insurance that paypal and ebay offers.

    What do you think?
    will it do the job or its just me dreaming??
    Are there any other that someone had used in similar porposes?
    Any feedback or advised will be welcome.

    Cheers

    (P.S sorry my bad english).

    Hi Alexi, If you want to cut 4 to 8 mm, you will need a 60w laser tube or higher. If the seller tell you that you can cut 8 mm with that machine , that will be a lie.
    If you are still looking for a biggger laser , there a re 3 brands to buy from : Rabbit, Wklaser, Zhogtai laser. This brands are used for many of the forum memebers, with best results and good feedback.

    Alexi - look on other items offered with this seller:

    What do you need - PAY LESS or WORK?
