schestowitz                                        <p>All makers love lasers and they make great shop tools. Even low-power lasers can engrave a variety of materials. Cutting material requires more power, with the most popular cutting lasers being CO2 with power between 10W-100W. But the small, affordable solid state laser modules can cut some materials, like acrylic, if you get a powerful enough model. If you want an affordable way to use one of those, then Sep 23 08:10
schestowitzthe Mokey Laser v1.0 is worth looking at.</p>Sep 23 08:10
