    Hobbyist seeking template files:: FSL Hobby Laser

    This is my first post on this Laser Forum. I found a Full Spectrum Laser Hobby 40W on Craigs List for $1700 in my local area- so I picked it up. The tube needed replacement but now that its installed I am having some fun! I really like the FSL laser. The tech support is great. I was absolutely blown away when I got a follow-up phone call out-of-the-blue from FSL just "checking-in" to see how I was doing with the used laser I bought!!
    Now I am seeking the best place to obtain patterns or templates. I mostly work with wood things I build- right now I am making some clocks for relatives. My wife wants to get in the fun and make some greeting cards. What is the best source for template or patterns- hopefully for free or nearly free? Any help you can provide for this newbie would be much appreciated.

    I was glad to hear your good comment about FSL. I've been looking at them but haven't made a decision yet as several have had bad experiences and I'm finally old enough to listen to others, LOL.

    Its true that SawMill Creek has literally thousands of Corel Draw, Sketchup, Autocad and a host of other files in our Laser Engraving Forum. Only a very small number of people realize how much has been shared here.

    BTW Members are allowed to download any file attachment in our archives. Even so we appreciate everyone's financial support especially our Laser Engravers because the majority here operate a business and the tech support here is very valuable.

    Steve,

    I had the new thumb drives ready to start shipping but my efforts were delayed by the work our Staff was doing on the Hall Of Fame. Now I have to incorporate the 2017 file attachments that Aaron Koehl pulled from our server. I don't want to start shipping files that are already out of date so I'm working on this as fast as I can.

    BTW you will also find some very good vector files in our CNC Forum.
