    Default Tripod Attachment

    2 piece alloy clamp CAD CAM'd and polished. This holds a bungee that is held to the ground with a tent peg. Clips for the tripod carrying strap are included. I am not having my 20 - 60 x 80mm spotting scope blow over...again.

    This is one of 3 machines that I have access to at school. I am a tech teacher. We have just received a 30 watt LotusLaser cutter, that cuts card and paper, thin acrylic 4mm and some special thin MDF and plywood. I may use it for plastic templates and rastering my name on objects. It is an expensive toy that will not cut metal or anything thick. The cut edges are smooth but slightly dovetailed due to the focus of the lens.

    Hi Mike,

    It would be great if you could post some pics of the machine you work on over in the CNC section https://www.woodworkforums.com/f170
