Comparison of a 5W laser, 10W, and 20W diode laser. All these machines have their pros and their cons, but this is a quick comparison of their ability to cut and engrave. I do not have a lot of experience with lasers and have been learning through using these. The program I am running is Lightburn and I find it pretty easy to use with the help of the tutorials you can find on YouTube.

As a disclaimer I was given each of these machines to use and post about - I purchased the 10W upgrade for the Ortur. I do have an affiliate link for xTool but for most beginners I believe the 10W is a good starting point both in price and use.
