Using the Laser cutters... Arch Reactor's two laser cutters can engrave images and can cut out shapes. It's not at all uncommon to perform both tasks, though some material that can be engraved cannot be cut by the laser. Document preparation is key, as is selecting the proper power and speed settings. Please be prepared to ask for assistance and please TEST! |

I backed the 1Sheeld (yes that's spelled correctly) on kickstarter and it arrived today. Was very easy to get working, though bluetooth seemed a little unstable with my galaxy S3, but my old S1 worked great. |
