Laser Machines

Postby Classic Finn » Tue Feb 09, 2010 7:59 pm

Im wondering if anyone here on the forum has any idea of where a person can purchase a Home Lasering Machine that can be hooked up to a computer to do laser pictures or on wood,plastic or?

Somthing reasonable maybe even though I know they can cost more than what I can ever afford..

This is what you may be looking for, as for reasonable that's a different story. We had one at work, I was responsible for keeping it running.

We have a Trumpf flatbed laser and are getting a Trumpf tubing laser at work, but unless you consider under 3/4 of a million reasonable, these are not. Here is a couple forums you might ask questions on.

Finn,

I'll custom design and build one for you, for .75 million, USD.
