Those cheap laser engravers that cost between $100 and $500 can be very tempting if you’re looking for your first one.
They say:
- Set up that is easy for beginners
- A small footprint on your desk
- The ability to engrave with a laser at home for cheap
- On the surface, it feels like a smart, low-risk way to start.
But you need to answer a very important question:
Is it really worth it to buy a cheap laser engraver, or will it cost you more in the long run?
