Hey All,
Been lurking and occasionally commenting for a while. Lots of info flowing around here, and thanks for everyone who is openly sharing their know-how...
My real hobby is Halloween. Wifey and I throw a major bash every year (100+ people) and we also decorate like lunatics (some of our home-made decor has become year-round) inside the house, and we do a big cemetery scene in the front yard.
Every year I like to add a few new tombstones and other misc stuff, and mostly it's made of that blue/pink insulation foam.
Who can guess what my questions are?
Is there any wavelength that would be ideal to burn/cut either color of foam?
What kind of power might be required?
Would stepper motors suffice or do I need to use scanning galvos?
Why are eggs-over-easy so damn hard to turn over? (yeh,yeh.. it's not laser-related, but still a burning question).
Is there any off-the-shelf software/hardware that could control such an operation?
Thanks again for sharing all your experience...
