Hi, i'm totally new to this stuff and been reading around a bit but always seem to have more questions than I started with
Anyway I'm considering getting a cheap(ish) CNC setup for experimenting and learning and it comes with a 2500mw 450nm blue laser.
I'd like to do stuff like write on anodized aluminum. work with acrylic (cut, mark, engrave), cut thin things (stencils etc.). Also mark wood for the purposes of layout for drilling and cutting with other tools.

Can I get some comments about if this laser can handle that OK and any other pros and cons too.
Thanks in advance!
