Just a quick hello from the East of England, currently enjoying a tier 4 Covid lockdown. Merry Christmas 😉

I run a small laser cutting business from home part-time called PandaMade. This is alongside my other job as a technician at a local college. Keeps me busy but the plan is to push the laser service in 2021 and move over to full time if I can achieve it. That's the target anyway.

I recently invested in a new laser cutter from Lotus Laser, they are a local company just 15min drive from me so it made sense to go with them. I went for a Lotus Blu 100. Nice large bed size of 1000x600mm with an 80W tube along with a large Bofa extraction unit. It takes up a lot of room in our little workshop but you gotta start somewhere right!

Enough rambling,
Chat soon
