Which add on do you feel is compulsory?

Enclosure – not compulsory and I didnt use one, you can just use it in a well ventilated area same as if you are using spray primers.

Air assist – not compulsory as it will cut perfectly well without it, it just reduces the dark coloured residue but in many kits that residue is actually the shading.

Mesh bed – not compulsory you can put any scrap wood underneath the work piece to protect your work surface.

Glasses – it actually comes with them in the base unit and the laser has a shield around it on the module.

Software – its free and pretty good IMHO

Most products of this ilk come with optional extras, in fact your car industry is probably the champion of such practices lol 🙂

Anyway my point is you can buy just the basic machine and make it work. And as a hobbiest you are well placed to upgrade it with hacks and stuff you may already own 🙂

We don’t have to stick to the official stuff, and again that was a really big part of my message in the video 🙂

Remember this thread started with you calling out my openess and honesty, saying you were angry about the video and felt sullied. All I can do is explain the methodology I followed, but obviously there’s not a lot I can do if you don’t like some other companies website. But I’m not sure I should be on the receiving end of that criticism 🙂
