Ok So I have probably gone about this the wrong way but :0 I'm new to lasers.
.
I have bought a chinese 100W tube and Power Supply.
I want to use Mach 3 as I am use this software for my laser. Plan to do engraving and cutting (Model Aircraft Parts). Will mach3 be suitable for what I want to do?
How do you suggest getting the laser to fire with Mach3? Im sure for the parts it wont be an issue to just use the spindle but not sure about the engraving on/off speeds.
Is there a controller (BOB) I should be looking at which will run the g-code as it comes either way I decide to run it. I'm on a budget.
Suggestions would be appreciated.
