This is the unboxing and setup of my Monport 80W CO2 laser. It has built-in air 
assist, a 36×24 inch bed, plenty of interior lighting and a Ruida controller with
power loss recovery.

I go through what’s included, like safety goggles, Allen keys, silicone sealant,
an Ethernet cable and a flash drive with the drivers. Then I hook up the chiller
and power it on for the first time.

I also run a project on it to show how it engraves and cuts. Compared to what I 
was working with before, this machine gives me a lot more room to get things done.

I have more Monport videos planned, including hooking it up to the rest of my equipment,
power loss recovery and LightBurn camera setup.
