 now and haven’t faulted it. We mainly use acrylic, wood products, fabric, cardboard and paper. Service once a year, and with regular cleaning it’s been great.  There were some great education packages around with them we got ours. We mainly use illustrator,
 solidworks, fusion 360 as platforms. I would buy another one of these, there are mostly likely others cheaper and do the same job, but I like the support from Trotec and the add on’s they have.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
