    Help before buy laser cutter co2

    Hello to all!!

    I make musical instruments, I live in Greece and because I make their decorations by hand, I decided to buy a laser for cutting from aliexpress. The amount I can allocate is at $ 1500,dollars as well as I have found some machines. I have come up with an 80 watt machine. The materials I will cut are celluloid paste of 1mm, acrylic 2mm and plexiglass colored. I did not have a similar machine in the past, so I said to write here. Note that I do not want the machine for production, as I want to make decorations for my own instruments and work at most 1 hour a month.The glass tube co2 from what I have seen lasts for 4000 hours. What I want to ask is this. This machine is suitable for the use I want; Its power is great; Could I get it with less power?Is there anything else I need to look out for or take into for this machine? Thank you all in advance for your help.

    Sincerely, Bill

    60 watts would be enough for cutting 2 mm Plexi Celluloid paste , im not sure what you mean cutting that. I'm gonna that your going to glue things together with the paste then cut after. This should not be a problem. If you can get an 80 watt in your budget then go for that. Always get more power if you can.
