Re: laser cnc

For anyone interested in "getting their feet wet" with laser
cutting/engraving, I have a couple of sealed ceramic tube CO2 lasers and
matching power supplies that I was planning to offer on ebay. These tubes
are in the range of 10 to 20 watts and are small and light weight and easy
to use. If anyone is interested please contact me offlist at
