I don't have a laser yet, but I would like to learn some of the skills I will need to use a laser. Is there a way to do this? I have Coreldraw 11. I'd like to be able to learn how to vectorize scroll saw patterns in particular. Will I be able to tell if I'm getting patterns laser ready if all I have is a printer hooked to my computer? I plan on getting a laser within a year, but I would like to be able to produce items as quickly as possible after getting it. My wife isn't convinced that I can make money with the laser. I disagree. I already have a small business producing scrollsawn Christmas ornaments. The work is very labor intensive. I have a good market for my products now. My main limiting factor is the time it takes to cut out the ornaments. Thank you for your help.
