Hey all,
I’ve been looking around for a reliable DIY laser cutter recently and am wondering what the community has used and can recommend.
I’m looking to use it for cutting and engraving the following materials:
- 0.5mm - 0.8mm Polypropylene
- 0.4mm PVC
- Plywood/balsa wood
- Leather
- Heavy card ~400gsm
BONUS: Engrave metal and acrylic
I’m mainly looking to use it for small DIY jobs along with small print finishing jobs, engraving on PP/Wood.
Ideally I’m looking for the cutting area to be A4 - A3 in size.
I have looked into the following DIY laser cutters:
Laserbot
XPlotter
The Internet is full of shady laser cutter kits, so I come to you to point me in the right direction.
Budget is <AUD $500.
Cheers,
T
