I have been interested in buying a laser for about a year now and finally have the money to buy one. I will be using the laser to expand my woodworking business by engraving cutting boards, frames, glasses, and other items. The laser I had in mind was the TX model by laguna. It was in my price range of 7,000 to 8,000. On the day I was going to purchase the machine the sales guy informed me that the TX model cannot be outfitted with a rotary for doing cylindrical items. Was kind of a bummer because I was all set to buy.
So now I am just looking for another machine that has the rotary option, exhaust, air assist, at least 12x12" travel, warranty, tech support, honeycomb bottom, and is around 7000 including shipping. Looking for a decent machine.
I have looked into epilogue but was too expensive. Right now im looking at the LG 640S by Jamieson but its a little bit more than what I want to spend at 8600. Is Jamieson a good company to go with? Is there a better company?
