If you're looking to buy a laser, check this video out. I share some thoughts on what you should consider when looking to buy a laser engraver for your business. Discount code below!

I bought an OMTech laser for my small business because I outgrew my previous 40w laser.

CAPACITY: Contrary to popular belief, size matters, atleast when we're talking about laser cutting capacity. The size of your laser can limit your potential for many projects, but not all garage shops are created equal and can fit a large industrial laser. I used my 40w CO2 laser for years for thousands of woodworking projects until I finally outgrew it.

POWER: CO2 lasers come in a variety of wattage options, with most ranging between 40-150 watts and can be a great tool to add to your woodworking tools. Diode lasers are also an option if you're doing small leather, acrylic, or woodworking projects that don't require any cutting. However, if you're looking to cut through materials like wood, leather, and acrylic, you'll need a laser engraver that can handle cutting.

COST: You can get an entry level CO2 laser for less than $500 with a cutting capacity of 8"x12" all the way up to 40"x63" for around $8k. Laser cutters and engravers are a great way to make your product stand out on Facebook marketplace and Etsy, and gives you an advantage to provide customized products to your customers.

I cover the various options in each category if you're looking to buy a laser engraver. I hope this video has helped you decide whether or not you should buy a laser and walked you through some of the things to consider when looking to pay off a laser quickly by finding personalized products that sell.
