Have any of the Hogs ever used a laser printer made by Glow Forge? I know it's a stretch but it could be used for engraving photos on unusual surfaces I am thinking of investing in one as another source of use for my prints. Thanks
From PC Magazine: "Laser cutters are powerful devices that can create intricate shapes and detailed etchings on plastics, woods, and even metals. They're also much larger and much, much more expensive than most consumer 3D printers. Still, if you have a use for one, the investment can easily be justified."

I knew about laser burners and he had worked at a large corp and probably purchased or gave a good home to ha hand me down. At the prices, he was charging for his hours of handwork [NOT] a Glow Forge working with a scanned photo line drawing would pay for its self quickly.
Check out some Chinese web site like Banggood or Gearbest I've reasonable set ups there fairly cheap.
