Seems that I am going overbudget. The initial goal was for doing this "undrer 300 EUR" but the material costs before laser cutting will be pushing me up to 325. With the laser fees added I'm hoping to fit within ~350 EUR for the machine with the pen, dremel-mill and USB microscope. A good enough power laser diode + driver would (will?) add extra ~50 EUR to that.

The material I ordered is about 1.5 m^2 of 6mm plexiglass and 0.85 m^2 of 2mm plexiglass. With the additional cutting fees and VAT this will cost me 95 EUR. Plexi is more expensive than I thought it would be.

6mm (manual) nesting. 5x 600x400mm and 2x 100x1000mm pieces. There is some spare space which I intend to fill before heading out to cut that stuff out.

2mm nesting. 3x 600x400 mm was the minimum reasonable quantity so I will have plenty of spare 2mm plexi for making the electronics boxes and other nonstructural components.
