    Hi Doddy.

    It looks like this

    I bought it as a lockdown toy and it cost £199 from CZ republic. I don't believe 30W from the gun as the power supply is only 12v 5A and it has to power the motors as well - we shall see. The machine came as a kit with a fixed focus laser module, so to get the focus at 20mm you would have to prop the workpiece, which I did not like.

    The software with the machine was CRAP so I ditched the controller and told the supplier it didn't work and got a £20 refund on it.

    I wanted to use Gcode generated by the JTech laser Inkscape add-on. I am still waiting for a DC power plug to arrive as the Cronosmaker board I bought has a 2.5mm pin in the socket and the power supply has a 2.1. (and the eBay twat sent me 2.1 panel sockets).

    In the meantime, I am venturing into the world of GRBL controllers.
