I've just got my new laser cutter up and running after a few minor teething
issues. For everyone that asked at the weekend, yes it is awesome and truly
worth the money, time for you all to start saving those pennies. It's hard
to describe what a step up this machine is. The rails are made with proper
linear slides so it's really quiet (the fans and pumps are noisier but they
can be moved and dampened down). The dropped down front allows for much
easier access and being able to put in whole sheets of material without
having to cut them up is so good.
Obviously the first cuts I've done tonight were bigger than the old machine
could do too.
Until you guys get a bigger machine I'm happy to have anyone come visit me,
or email and I'll try to cut your stuff for you with minimal cost,
Martin

I'm down in Countesthorpe. It's not a proper workshop really, it's just a
garage but it was interesting enough last time because I have vast amounts
of stuff and projects in there. There is good argument for visiting all
these places though, was great to go to oomlout last week and I'm keen to
get over to Phenoptix in the near future.
