Hi Sanjayan,

Sorry for the delayed reply, didn’t see the notice on your reply.

To answer your question, I am running this through the ‘cigarette lighter’. The 4-way power outlet plugs into that. Then everything else plugs into the 4-way power outlet.

This kept the wiring simple, if somewhat limited.

I plan on eventually building a ‘power distribution centre’ to make more hookups available.

Wow! That’s pretty sweet! OMG, totally makes me want to start taking apart my Yamaha Clavinova LOL. Would be fun to put a kludge together using parts from old player-pianos from Mr. Used to have it play actual tunes from the old spools

It’s going back sometime now… my client (friend) was the sole distributor for Canada then. We were using one of the Trotec Speedy series in-house. If I’m correct, it ranged from 60W to 200W. Sealed CO2 laser. Depending on the application, it was comparatively more flexible and more productive than other lasers in its class. It had a honeycomb table with a working area somewhere around 50″ by 30″.

@ Zafer
That’s cool! Do you know how powerful the laser was? We haven’t tried glass yet. I’d never even thought about engraving a lot of those materials – we’ll have to run some experiments.

I once played with Trotec Lasers (Austrian make). Actually built their first Canadian www site several years ago. I remember creating logos in Corel Draw and laser engraving the design using all sorts of materials; glass, wood, leather, denim, granite, paper…. Tremendous fun!
