Ortur Most Admired.

Needs to be offline setup due to driver issues for mac.

Use PC and TightlVNC in to control.

Ortur Lengthen Y Axis has 32 bit board which alows for much more refinement of laser power levels for graphics.

Neje has upgraded to 32 bit control.  (frimware)?

Neje 2s plus is 8 bit.  Low number of power gradients.
Set up so it can slide back and forth over 4 x 8 foot plywood.
I deally x should frive from end.

The LU2-4 laser head has a smaller spot than the LU1-4, and the engraving is more stable and accurate, and the use loss is reduced. It can be engraved and cut, which makes up for the lack of LU1-4 in the exquisite engraving.
