Artilume

Anyone tried this machine?

I am sure it’s underpowered for serious cutting.

Looks a lot like the MOBEAM unit I never finished.

If it works an for the price and mobility would make a nice engraving machine

Works with LightBurn

An interesting idea.. and nice form factor.
But underpowered for anything other than engraving.

I’ve done some nice wood engraving and paper cutting with a 5w module.

It looks like they have a 12W version too. Not sure if that would be able to cut 3mm plywood in a single pass or not.

probably not, highly depending on the wood and lamination glue but generally even my 40W with air assist takes a few passes for 3mm ply.

But it’s sold as an engraver anyway, and for that I thonk it probably does a reasonable job, if a little slow. Fumes could be an issue if indoors.

Laser machines with no enclosure always scare me.

It can be helpful for small projects only.
