This past week I started looking at laser engravers on the internet and I'm now more confused than before! I'm not really sure what I need versus what's available. Does anyone have experience in this area?
I'm looking for a machine that produces good, quality work at a reasonable price (less than $1,000). I'm thinking it should be able to engrave a pen with someone's name, company, and/or a logo. I would also like to engrave flat, wood surfaces with it, too.
I was on eBay looking at what they had and there were laser machines from $500-$25,000. I would imagine that the cheaper ones aren't as good as the more expensive ones, but again, I don't even know what to look for in a laser engraver.
Are there laser engravers that can etch wood and acrylic at reasonable prices? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
