Surprisingly, laser modules are available on Amazon. It’s not difficult to buy the components in the US. You can make your own one by customizing your 3D printer. But ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT those laser devices are dangerous that can burn your eyes and skin! I enclose my laser engraver with a well-designed case with safety cut off switches.
We also find many DIY laser engraving machine kits on Amazon. Unfortunately, none of them looks safe and reliable. I can’t recommend them to you because of poor electronics, wires, cables, casing, or low-quality safety goggles. I really don’t know whether the sellers follow the safety restriction given by Amazon. Don’t take any risk to buy those cheap products.
Silhouette CAMEO 3
If you want to buy one, we recommend you go to Amazon. We found it was sold much cheaper on Amazon (including shipping fee) than on Taobao.
