Creality has the Laser Falcon 2 (22W) laser engraver and cutter on sale for $669 with the
coupon code: 22FC
The Laser Falcon can be used to personalize many everyday items such as cutting boards, dog tags, coasters, and more. You can use them as Christmas gifts or even sell them. It also cuts wood up to a thickness of 15mm in one pass, so you can create practical items.
Since it is a diode laser with 455nm wavelength, it is suitable for most non-transparent and non-metallic materials. It works well on wood, plastic, fabrics, and cardboard. With the 22W laser power, you can also engrave stainless steel and anodized aluminum.
The Laser Falcon 2 comes with an integrated air assist, which helps to blow away the smoke and prevent residues from discoloring the work piece. It also helps with cutting and keeping the laser lens clean. The difference to other laser engravers is that it has a monitoring system in the laser head, which can detect flames (you should not leave a laser engraver unattended though). It also has a monitoring for the air flow and the contamination of the lens, which helps to keep the laser lens intact.
If you decide that you need the 40W module later, the Laser Falcon 2 can be upgraded. However, for most tasks the 22W module is powerful enough. The Laser Falcon 2 can go up to speeds of 25,000mm/min.
It works with the free LaserGRBL software (Windows only) or with the more advanced LightBurn software (30 day trial available, compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac).
The Laser Falcon comes with various safety functions, but I would recommend putting it into an enclosure for extra safety and easier smoke extraction.
For cutting, I would also recommend a honeycomb laser bed, or alternatively you can use a stretch metal sheet from the hardware store. This helps a lot because the air assist can blow the smoke away at the bottom of the work piece.
If you want to engrave round items such as tumblers, a rotary roller can also be connected to the Laser Falcon 2.
