I ordered this for my own hobby uses, the fact that the frame is mostly 2020 aluminum extrusion we a huge part of why I got this. To start, the kit is well packaged with plenty of foam to keep it safe. Some parts needed cleaned before assembly but that only takes a bit of air or a vacuum after removing the plastic covering. Assembly of the kit was easy despite the limited information in the manual. Once it is built the frame is quite rigid. Being a trained production machinist I am eager to push this thing to its limits. The only issues I have with this kit are: 1 The manual, it needs more descriptions. 2 The spindle wire could use to be about 3 or 4 inches longer. 3 the inclusion of 4 to 6 T-nuts for clamping. None of those are deal breakers, As for the 2500mw laser, that was a bonus that is going on my home made laser and I have not gotten to use it yet.
