Re: Wrap etch
probably a clumsy back door method, but I do round objects so seldom keeping up with calculations is a problem. I measure the circumference of the round object to be engraved and then make a template/box that size on the screen and fit the artwork to that size. Then I make the "3.86" calcu...

Re: Why are laser machines so heavy ?
Not sure, but my guess is they are built heavy to keep the cabinet/ or internal parts true. One little tweak and the laser beam is out of alignment.
