Wondering if anyone has any experiences with the cheap chinese laser engravers that are all over ebay? Mainly wanting it so I can start engraving pens (wood & acrylic) as well as burning a logo in the bottom of my bowls. Because of the bowls, I'm looking at the engravers that have an open floor like this one so I'm not limited by the height of the object.

From what I've read, the curvature of the pen won't affect the engraving too much if you stay close to the middle of the cylinder.
I'm a hobbyist, so an expensive commercial engraver is out of the question. Looking to stay in the sub-$200 range, 1000-2000mw laser.
Thoughts?
