Laser Engraving Machine
My Newest Toy is a A3 Laser Engraving Machine or to give it its full title “KKmoon A3 Pro 500mw Desktop USB Laser Engraving Carving Machine ”
As this comes as a kit with nothing in the box apart from a sheet with the parts list NO software or Build Guide I had to refer to YouTube for build guides although all the guides are different there is enough to build the product with little guess-work. After a lot of searching and reading I found EleksMaker Website which has a great Build Guide and Software but best of all it has a Forum For engraving Help and tutorials
the software I have tried so far is EleksCAM , T2Laser , LaserGRBL
The best software so far is EleksCAM as it is easy to get to Grips with you can print Text or Picture Graphics Easily with little learning
If you want a Laser engraving Machine that works straight out the box with no learning Forget it these are Enthusiast products and well supported by them in the forums
The Laser was the hardest to get to Grips with, The “focal point” was the hardest to set with lots of trial and error Plywood was the easiest, paper and card was quite a bit more difficult not figured it out yet, why i dont know White paper is the hardest
