I'm sorry, but I honestly do not see anything spectacular about these very basic videos. It appears to be marketing ploy. Each video has the web site to the engraver listed on it.

Not much of a chance of this group running to that engraver for work to be done..... Most here have a Laser.... Like a website for Ice Cubes in Alaska....:rolleyes:

But YES the Laser is COOL....

Yes these videos are just simple ,but that was my first time watching what could be done ,basic things .I am interested in how it will cut ie intarsia,models and marquetry projects.
I stuck all this on utube and put his site on there not for a resale value just because i appreciated him taking his time to show me.
i have a 100watt on order and its made by the same company so it was a good demo for me.
I have a cnc wood and this is very similar but very interesting ,sorry if offended or tried a marketting scheme it was just a simple ----look what i saw--

[Scott Shepherd]

Stan, that was a very slow machine. What do you plan to use it for?

[stan kern]

I didn't think it was too bad speed wise,maybe he had the feed rate slowed .
I am interested in a laser for intarsia ,marquetry and possible model parts
And engraving on glass marble and corian
