AlgoLaser DIY KIT MK2 10W Smart Enclosed
What we like
- Enclosed for safer, quieter indoor operation
- Same fixed 10W module as the open-frame MK2
- Rotary compatible
Watch out for
- Much heavier than the open-frame MK2 (enclosure adds significant weight)
- No smart features — still a manual-focus GRBL machine
- Priciest DIY KIT MK2 configuration
Sculpfun S30 Ultra 33W
What we like
- 33W — cuts 20mm pine and 15mm black acrylic in one pass
- Huge 590×595mm base work area, expandable to 935×905mm
- Built-in auto air assist included
- 0.005mm high-precision linear slide rail X-axis
- Modular laser head — upgrade path within the S30 Ultra series
- Emergency stop switch and child safety lock
Watch out for
- Very large footprint (~800×840mm frame)
- No WiFi — Bluetooth and USB only
- No enclosure — open frame requires safe working environment
- Fixed focus (no motorised Z)
