Thanks, Keith. The depth is actually much less than that. We're not trying to engrave or cut very ornate boxes, more like basic etching, maybe with the possibility of larger depth engravings. The 12" was the width dimensions of the boxes, since I know that some machines have smaller surface areas. We are definitely going to be purchasing the rotary attachment for glassware. If I look at 60w machines, I think that takes the Rayjet our completely because I believe that they only go as high as 50w. This is one reason I'm here, this type of information is invaluable and will help prevent me making initial mistakes. Thank you.
I'm not afraid of making an investment, but I'm afraid of making the wrong type of investment, and too soon, if that makes sense. I want to give myself options for expansion, but I'm not ready to go with some of the higher end options that some of you guys have. Maybe when I get a little more into this.
That's why i was considering the smaller Rayjet. It looks like it gives me enough to get my feet wet, but without the larger initial investment, but if the laser will be under powered for what we're trying to do, that concerns me.
