Hey Everyone,

I'm Keith Etheredge. I'm in Columbus, Indiana and recently bought a 60W OMTech CO2 laser with a 20x28 bed and manual focus. I finally upgraded after living with an Eleksmaker A3 diode laser for about 3 years. I was exceeding the limitations of that machine from day one unfortunately. I'm not associated with any makerspace or business. I'm learning this in my garage for fun, and hope to pay off my laser purchase by selling engraved custom woodworking items.

Thanks for adding me to the forum!

Welcome Keith- be sure to save your Vendor/Machine settings [details in the FAQ] as they are easy to lose and hard to recreate. This is a great hobby and money can be made if you are clever. Gene
