Goals
Raise money for different enhancements for recently build laser cutter
Main goal
Motorize the Z-Axis ca. 300€
To cut or engrave objects of different sizes, the cutting surface has to be movable on the Z-axis. With 300€ we can motorize it
We start with a small goal to get the campaign rolling. There is nothing more frustrating than a campaign with a big goal missed by a little. Stretch goals will keep people engaged
Stretch goal 1
Replacement laser source ca. 1000€
Sooner or later the Laser will need a replacement.
Stretch goal 2
Stronger laser min. 500€
If backers add some money to stretch goal 1, we can buy a laser with more cutting power. With a little research on lasers this goal is incremental, since we can always buy a stronger laser with more €.
Stretch goal 3
Motorized Z-focus
To keep the laser in focus even if the cutting a motorized Z-axis on the laser focus with a range finder would be nice
Any money inbetween
Cutting material
The money inbetween goals will be spend on cutting material like wood, plexiglas etc.
TODOs
It would be nice to get some help on all or at least
- Research what types of laser we can put in the cutter, and how much they cost, so we can increment the stretch goal
