Open source laser engraver sells for just $64 fully assembled — it is small and low power but may be enough for your needs

Open source mini-laser-printer kit.

A tech tinkerer has shared the full plans and resources necessary to build a compact desktop laser engraver. All the resources are available on GitHub, including the components list, 3D printer files, firmware, drivers, and software. Moreover, project creator Elias55745 is selling a fully assembled ‘mini laser printer’ created using these plans for just $64. They also intend to sell everything you need as a kit for self-assembly. However, the store is undergoing maintenance at the time of writing, so the shopping cart isn’t working, and you may see prices in Yen (I did).
