    Just downloaded the free 30 day trial of LightBurn, and when it starts up it wants me to plug my laser cutter in to the USB.  Since I can't do that, does anyone know how to make a manual profile for the laser cutter we use?

    I have the same question especially since the camp is going on.   The laser cutter has a dedicated PC, and I'd like to do my first design at home on the MAC, then transfer it over.
