@chapklc - Kari, just to add to what @gwilki (Grant) posted. If I am not mistaken the laser being built by Sienci is a full 7 watt laser. The laser I have (and Grant also I believe) is supposed to be a 5 watt but in actuality is probably under 2 watts. It will probably burn up your material before it cuts through. The 7 watts will be able to cut material if I remember what I’ve read so far if you use the proper lens. It may take a few extra passes to accomplish but it’s not a 40-60 watt laser. Also as I previously posted, to me the Lightburn software is the way to go. It was so easy to learn and jump right in. I know it’s an additional learning curve but it wasn’t bad.
