I’d humbly like to request that you guys upgrade up to a 4x8 in your elite series. This will put you guys in a very unique position in the market and allow manufacturing of larger items without tiling. Such as furniture. I will be purchasing a foreman elite with 24w laser and all the top notch acce…

4x8 is coming! The full eight. [♾️ The Full Eight. The Onefinity 4x8 foot CNC.]

Upgrade to 4x8 please!
