Hi everyone,
I am so glad to find this forum, I have spent many hours reading over the past week.
I own and run a laser cutting business from home, here in New Zealand. I am self taught, and still have so much to learn. My 'real' job is as a firefighter, and my husband also works full time. We have two girls under 2, so are busy busy people!!!
My business is at the moment aimed at Weddings and events. We make a lot of invitations, favours, name placings etc out of acrylic and wood. We also have quite a large shaped mirror selection (popular for kids - fairies, butterflies etc..)
Also have started making painted MDF letters for kids bedrooms, which are a lot of fun and look great
I am looking forward to trying lots of new things that I see on this site, including cermark etc..
One thing I seem to get the feeling of on this site, is that not many people cut much?
I certainly cut more that I engrave. I have a great acrylics fabricator just down the road, and use a lot of acrylic.
We certainly don't have the number of laser machines here that I read about around the rest of the world (USA mainly). Certainly don't see them for sale or have access to cheapies.
I look forward to getting to know all of you more, and coming here for help no doubt.
I am not sure how to make a signature like everyone seems to have, but I have a second hand Universal 50watt, and use Corel X5.
