I had ordered my Nova 63 back in '21 and was waiting for my delivery. It was going to be months. I got a deal on a little Atomstack. I got it for mainly training myself on the software. I tested all the free software and LightBurn. I bought LightBurn as my final software. Works fantastic with the cheapy laser for training and even better with a TL unit. By the time my '63 arrived i was going within minutes after all the setup was complete because i was up to speed with Lightburn. Using the little machine was exactly as you said in the viddy - hobby stuff only. And the Thunder Laser and TL USA is also exactly as you say. Top notch on every front! Thanks for the great Open House last weekend and the great company you have going. Am a very happy customer!
I agree that the Thunder Lasers (ex: Bolt) would be great to start with, but a lot of beginners budgets are in the Diode (XTool or Roly) price range. Unfortunately, I’m in that beginner category now & would likely have to wait a while to afford a Thunder Laser (I already talked with your team, great people btw). So for me, at least getting started with a diode, even if just for a hobby, is better than sitting on the sidelines…and then upgrade later.
Thanks Clay! My first machine was an AtomStack. Ended up putting it in the trash as it was not for me. Fast forward a year and I am very happy with my Nova 24. Works every time and the support is so much better than waiting on China to get back to you without answers… Wish I had the $1,xxx back from the first machine! Cheers!
I own an Omtech 80w CO2 ($$ in 2022) now I’m using it more frequently in 24’ for my side biz. I am definitely noticing that when it comes to cutting full 1/4 in sheets of MDF (ornaments various images) it doesn’t seem to cut fully through for all of them. I spend too much time recalibrating every time I do the same type of job. Looking at thunder and aeon, for second machine in shop
Hello, and thank you for the videos. I have a Thunderbolt, and I would love to get you Mopa 8 to do deep engraving like 3D coins and other items. Can you make a video showing step by step how to create these coins with the Mopa 8. Thank you
