Hello everyone. I am in Cleveland, TN and new to the laser world. I bought a 35 x 51" 130 watt laser. I am currently working through the controller and Lightburn to learn the basics of both. Looking forward to see what this forum has to offer with guidance and possible upgrades I should do for my machine.

Welcome Christopher- I bought a very similar machine 5 years ago and have loved it all along. I am just getting ready to let it go and replacing with one with a bed twice as large. You can go too large I am afraid- large machines should just be expanded small machines, right? I am finding that is not necessarily true. Let us know if we can help you along the path- and record your Vendor files now [per FAQ] as you may need them later. Gene
