minus-squareClay_pidginlinkfedilinkEnglish13•2 months agoDo laser engravers have a consumable component? It’s not like there’s a tank of liquid photons.
minus-square@Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish14•2 months agoAssuming its a CO2 tube laser. It does have a certain runtime until the tube burns out. And its like $300 for a new tube depending on the model and wattage
