    Congrats on the new machine!
    I love mine and it's only 30W - and just the 1 1/2 inch lens but I'm amazed at what I've been able to do with it so far.

    I don't know what you plan to cut or engrave on yours but you may want to consider isolating it from all the fabric/clothing you offer. Even with a good exhaust blower, there are residual fumes or scent that may permeate the cloth items you plan to resell. A carbon filter may or may not eliminate that possibility - some of the aroma continues to emit from the cut or engraved parts for some time after the job is done.

    Wow, Mayo, I hadn't thought of that. This may quicken my transition to another location by my wife!

    Keith,
