Beginner notes
Choose 22W if it matches your typical jobs. Compare cut depth and price against other tiers in this product line before ordering.
Pro tips
Color marking requires precise speed/power control — practice on scrap stainless. Use LightBurn for serious work. Pair with proper extraction — built-in air assist helps cuts but does not replace ventilation.
