Hi, just got my Laser on 7/18/19 from BossLaser. I have been retired for about a year. Currently building a CNC Lathe and Milling machine. I collect antique engines both hit and miss and model steam engines.
I have built several runnable engines from rough castings and bar stock.
Looking forward to learning how to use the new laser and software. So far I have drawn a set of gaskets for a new steam engine using Fusion 360, saved as a dxf file and imported the file / cut the gaskets using RDWorks.

Welcome Chuck- I have found the laser to be a valuable addition to my other 'maker' tools and almost daily find something new I can do with it. Sit down and enjoy. Gene
