Why ?
Got to be very expensive and will only be able to do thin stuff, no castings etc
Any reason why a plasma which is far cheaper and more powerful can't be used ?John S -

The only reason I can think of is the laser doesn't need to be that close to what you're cutting compared to a plasma torch.

Bugger there goes another sale, I will never get rich at this rate
I think you will find plasma requires a wire connection, a metal target and close proximity so as a general wrecking tool this does have an advantage...
Concentrate on the toy value

They should put sights on it so you can use it as a fly swatter.

Didn't think much of the wobbly lines they were cutting.....in the films they manage much better straight lines

It might take a lot of practice to get the depth of cut just right? How about a hand-held water-jet?!
I wonder what it's range is - new sniper-gun?
