      Assuming its a CO2 tube laser. It does have a certain runtime until the tube burns out. And its like $300 for a new tube depending on the model and wattage

      Kinda, the lens can burn out and the bearings can wear out, but I wouldn’t be concerned that’s just regular maintenance.

      Do laser engravers take much time to do a run? I suppose time is consumable if there’s a queue of stuff needing to be done.
