I couldn't find the reference that I was looking for, but I found a few websites if you google laser beginners guide a few useful links show up. Here is one that might help you get some terminology...

I hate to say it, but if you bought a cheap, low wattage laser, it may cut 3mm ply, but possibly not nicely nor in one pass. That being said, we will definitely need to know more info, like Chase...

So I KNOW I made a long, thoughtful reply to your comments. My apologies, I guess it didn’t post. Thank you gentlemen. I really appreciate your insights and they were very helpful. Ken, I never...

Hey guys and gals. I am about to bite the bullet on a fiber. I don't have the budget for the top-end American made machines because I'm still paying on my Epilog but I am willing to pay for better...

Definitely contact Epilog. Some distributors will sell on consignment (although I don't know how large of a cut they take) if you have a hard time selling on your own. If you call Epilog, they will...

Sorry. I didn't see this update until today. I haven't used the larger bed too much. It is definitely nice when I have a big production order and can fill the space and just let it go for an hour and...

Oh man, same! We live in the country and my "high speed" internet is terrible. I couldn't imagine having to have uninterrupted WIFI. I was finishing up my last job the other night and closing...

I was surprised to see a Glowforge thread in here... and now it makes sense. My targeted ads keep telling me that I need to buy one. Someone in a Facebook thread said a watch band took them 40...

Just FYI. 32oz Polar Camel Water Bottles just went up on the JDS website.

I wish I could help. I am in this situation as well so maybe someone else has found a solution. Everyone in my area loves their Hydroflasks but they aren't accepting new retailers and their bulk...

So I was having this exact debate earlier this year. I did a lot of research and read a lot of this forum. I almost went with the Speedy because of how well recommended Trotec was here. But I did end...

Somehow I missed that you had replied! This quarantine is throwing everyone off. Thank you for the information. I am about to bite the bullet and give out my money... I think I am going to go with...

I am having a VERY difficult time deciding between the Fusion 48 and Speedy 400. Now that you have been running yours for a little bit, do you find distortion issues with work along the outer edges...

Thanks Guys. I kind of figured that would be the general response. I liked the idea but in practice I probably won’t use it as much as I am thinking. Just didn’t want to lose out if it was as amazing...

Hey Guys,

I went to (one day before it closed) the NBM trade show last week and went to a couple Corel courses put on by Action Illustrated and Digital Art Solutions. Have any of you guys...

That's pretty cool. But I do understand the inability to realistically make money on it now. I didn't know it took a bunch of extra time to do it.

Thank you for the info Matt!

Thank you Everyone! Do you need a MOPA fiber to laser colors or is it just finding the correct settings? I have seen mixed information on this.

I didn’t know that it made a significant difference. I was almost going to purchase CorelDraw, as it seemed like that is what most people run and it is cheaper than Adobe, but I just had a long...

What type of fiber laser did you end up going with Gary? After some lengthly discussions with my husband we are thinking of just biting the bullet and buying both a CO2 and fiber laser. We're...

Thank you Keith! This was one of my biggest concerns for set-up as I didn't quite understand how I could set it up without having seen one in person. I knew i didn't need an expensive air system so...

Thank you for the info! I am sooo excited about what fibers can do. I think I am still going to start with a CO2 and get my bearings and make sure I like my shop set-up... practice, practice,...

Thank you for your suggestions! Unfortunately I am planning on flying as the convention is in Texas and I am in Montana with a short timeline... tempting to do the drive though because I have heard...

That's is a bad thing to say to me! haha I REALLY want both. I have definitely considered getting a smaller CO2 machine in order to afford a fiber as will but I didn't want to get too far over my...

Thank you Ralph! I will ask to see if he is there. I am going to go to their Training Session.
