I own two small desktop CNC routers, and I've gotten my hands dirt with electrical/mechanical stuff.
I'm going to setup a third router soon, and want to sort of expand to other things whilst having fun along with justify it.
Recently a connection of mine said he has $600 worth (a day of work I'm guessing) of small jewelry box hinges he needs cut from 1/8" hardwood and the place he goes to is 1.5 hours away so he'd like to find somebody closer.
Since I don't mind a project (I'm 22 but don't spend my time like most my age), and want to mess around a bit would say this cheap 40 watt unit do the job? Hobby 40W CO2 LASER ENGRAVING CUTTING MACHINE ENGRAVER, Ship from USA | Automation Technology Inc
I've heard the software isn't great, but I'm presuming to become dangerous, maybe make some money back, and etc it would suffice?
Or is it utter garbage that shouldn't be touched?
I'd appreciate your input since I've read a decent but I'm not sure what to think.
