Hi. I am building an 80w Co2 laser engraver from scratch and came across Russ's youtube videos. After many hours of watching I found out about this forum, so.. here I am.

I am a complete newbie, so I am thankful for all of the knowledge Russ is sharing. I can't wait to learn more about these devices and get some projects going.

Rich, we have a forum for homebuilts which may interest you and it would be a kindness if you would document your build to help people coming up behind us. I expect custom lasers to be a rapidly increasing interest. Gene
