Laser Cutter

The Epilog Laser Mini 18 machine uses a thin, 30-watt beam of CO2 laser light to cut and engrave a variety of materials, like wood, acrylic, rubber, and certain plastics. The red dot pointer helps you position your projects perfectly on the cutting table. It has the ability to engrave or cut cylindrical items, like bottles or glasses with the Rim-Drive Rotary Attachment. 

Materials that off-gas hazardous chemicals when burned MAY NOT be used. Prohibited materials include vinyl, painted or varnished wood, or glazed tiles.

List of acceptable materials for the laser cutter

*CO2 lasers will mark bare metals when coated with a metal marking solution.
