Hello Everyone,
I have been searching for a new laser cutter and I have found myself stuck between two machines. Rabbit Laser and FS Pro Series Laser.
The FS Laser seems to have better software. You can print from a PDF file. Plus the software is written by American programers and and I believe they have a larger support staff then Rabbit Laser.
On the other hand the Rabbit Laser has a bed size of 48x36 which increases the capabilities over the FS Pro Series which is only 24x18.
Our door way is only 35inches and the 24x18 sized laser from FS is the largest that will fit with out voiding any warranty.
So would you rather have easier to use software or a larger bed size? We would definitely use the larger bed size if we had it available.
Does anyone have Rabbit software experience? I spoke with one gentleman who owns a Rabbit Laser and he referenced the printing from PDF would make him reconsider his rabbit purchase. Rabbit can use Correl Draw, Photoshop, and Illistrator which I have copies of all three.
Any input or advice would be appreciated.
Here are the two models:
