Well, actually from Sachse, but nobody knows where that is. :)

I've been working with a 50 watt laser engraver for 2+ years. Chinese, blue box 300x500 bed. Use Lightburn for designing and controlling the Ruida. My power supply just went out, so I figured this was a good time to do some upgrades, and get on some of the forums for research and advice.

Thanks!

John

Welcome John- you do have a good opportunity to upgrade- it is normally not that hard if you don't go to an extremely long tube. You should be able to find a few threads about upgrading, if you have questions, please ask. Gene
