I am completely new to using lasers. I bought this with the intention of asking someone for help, but I was able to (easily) put it together myself in under an hour. It was a lot simpler than I was anticipating. I was able to use the basswood that came with it and test the three gcode files on the SD card without any issue. The laser works extremely well. I'm impressed. Thank you! Read more

I'm new to this kind of thing and I own a business so instead of me paying extreme amount of money to having hats made or coolie cups I thought why not buy one of these and give it a shot. Amazon notified me that it went on sale and that's when I bought it and I don't regret it. It definitely takes some time figuring out the software how to do this and that just like anything. But so far it has done great in the pictures the bigger burn was a one hour burn. I did make legs to extend the platform up because they wanted way too much money for plastic legs that just screw onto these things. Also bought a platform to work on that wasn't too pricey. You can be in this with the platform if you make your own legs less than 300. The only complaint I have about the software is they don't offer an eraser like word art or whatever you would call it. The assembly was one of those deals you take your time and you read the instructions very carefully but they are worded well. So it definitely takes some practice figuring out how to lay things out how they work but it will pay off in the end!!! And just a note to anyone that gets one of these when you hit stop on the burn it doesn't return back to the original start point so when you stop you're screwed on trying to save whatever you're working on. I highly recommend cutting pieces of cardboard to practice figure out where the layout is and all that stuff. Read more
