Sounds like a good idea. (I have a laser engraver)
Would there be a way to get the pro's and the newbies both there? Like, maybe a general meeting/get together, but then break off into 2 or 3 different groups and cover different things (from simple to advanced). That way you'd have appeal to both ends of the spectrum. I'm a newbie, and would probably slow everything down if I went to an advanced meeting with a million of my questions that everyone else there might already know. My time would be better spent with a workshop covering more of the basics. (prep work of piece to cleanup, laser vector cutting grid improvments? work ideas.)
But I think a lot of tips and advice would come from interacting with everyone during the course of a get-together, so it would be great if there were a full spectrum of people there.
And I'm always interested in hearing what everyone does for their business, there's a ton of different setups here. (like mixing rotary/laser/dye sub...)
my 3 cents (inflation)
