One of if not THE most popular budget CO2 lasers is the K40. The combination of price (under $500) and power (40W CO2) make this an attractive option to anyone's shop. But it has always come at a cost. Over the years people have had issues with quality with these Chinese imports but this week we take a look at a new US supplier OM Tech. Let's check out their unit and see if its a good fit for you!
