    Hi Andrew,have you had much luck with your laser engraver and products to engrave?I’m just new to lasering myself,but have been doing rotary engraving for a number of years now.

    i would imagine grafityp, if not supply the materials, then will be able to advise you on where to source them.
    i only say this because they offer a wide range of laser machines and i cant see them doing that without supplying the material or info on it.

    well, if you got your laser and not had any ‘top tips’ then i going to suggest that you stay clear of Foamex based products as its toxic and can kill you.

    If marketed right, you make some good money with it.

    I have 6 laser engravers, they work on just about anything barring PVC and some other plastics.
    If you want any specific info , just ask.
    I think I have posted a whole long essay on things you can do with a laser on this site

    Otherwise go to sawmillcreek.org to their laser section or to
