A while back, Glowforge discontinued the Basic model. Just recently, they introduced a new Glowforge, the Aura!
The Aura is smaller in size, measuring approx 20.5" x 22" x 5" and can cut material up to 12"x12" and 1/4" thick.
Like all Glowforge, you can score, engrave, and cut Wood, Cork, Leather, Acrylic, Veneer, Rubber. You can engrave only on Tile, Slate, Aluminum, Stone, Marble, and more!
