The Zing Laser Engraving system

[LaserMartina]

Want one, too! Anyone knows which is the better system? Trotec, Epilog or GCC?

[superbros15]

it cost 400,00 dollars to fire this laser for 12 seconds.

[Eaglesfan9727]

[bumr055]

Wouldn't it be pretty bad for the eyes to watch this thing work? how many watts is that laser anyway?

[NAWRARESNAW]

You can build all that for less then 1000$, it won't look as professional as that, but it will work all the same.

[turpija123]

did you build one for less then 1000$, and can we see it on youtube ?

[Daedronus]

Nope, but others have

[turpija123]

this movies don't justify it ...

first one is barely working (not finished),

and second one said in info it cost about 6000$

[Daedronus]

The first one is a built _from scratch_ co2 laser tube!

The second one if a lot more fancy then this "pro" one. MUCH larger work area, Z axis.

The co2 tube is 300-400$, stepper motors 30$/each, power supply? Cheap, if you make it yourself, 3 gold coated mirrors about 100$ each? maybe less. The focusing ZnSe lens, 100$-150$? The rest of the mechanical parts don't even count, the electronics, you CAN make them yourself for a few bucks.

no doubt you can actually manufacture one at a significant savings. if you're great at that sort of thing. and if you are, then all you have to do is programme your computer to actually operate it. oops.

piece of cake. might as well learn sandblasting.

doesn't look as fancy? probably runs as good as it looks, too.

too many skill sets involved to be made by the average person. you're better off giving epilog $20k and know you've got a quality machine with a warranty.

[Audorax]

well if you have the cash, avoid the hassle.

do you have a car? did you build it? you know you can build a car, it won't look as professional but it will do the same. and for less than you can buy it from.

[cansaran11]

@Audorax OR, avoid the HASSLE and buy a second hand car lol

[toxicfrost123]

how much for the parts and where to get them?

[FanChrisproductions]

what exactly is it suppose to do? Is it some sort of edvance copyier?

[zing199]

I think it cuts wood or somthing

[coolbito]

Damn I need some money. =/

[duynguyenle]

I wish I had the $8000 burning a hole in my pocket to afford this thing *drool*
