knucklehead 530 Posted August 26, 2009 That's one of those things that if you have ask how much, well you probably already know the answer. From what I've seen the good ones start about 25k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ursine 0 Posted August 26, 2009 These so called crystal engraving lasers are usually a Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet) type laser. They're pricey and most of the ones i've seen are from China. Do a Google search and you'll get pages of info. Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
