    Many thanks, Kev. That's so logical, and should have been my first move. Thanks. Here goes......
  2. Corel X5 printing issue on Zing laser unit

    I'm working at making my own wooden nickels for an upcoming event, and I think I've figured out how to do both sides nicely, but now I've a printer issue that has suddenly and inexplicably cropped...

    Thanks, Doug and Kev. Unfortunately, the M40 doesn't have to option of tilting the platform (which would be ideal). But the wedges and level bubble ideas sound promising. I'll try to get hold of a...
  4. Engraving on the rotary attachment and Gravostyle 7: need a how to, please

    Hi, and continued thanks to all who have been so helpful in the past. I have a new question:

    I have been "flat engraving" for a number of years now, and have always possessed the rotary...
  5. Thanks for all the help, folks. It was an...

    Thanks for all the help, folks. It was an alignment issue, and the fix was simplicity itself, once I got over the fear that I was going to mess it up even worse. The plastic name tags are now...
  6. Many thanks. Will do.

    Many thanks. Will do.
  7. Based on the above questions, it seems to be an...

    Based on the above questions, it seems to be an alignment issue. The board is uniform, the table height is uniform, nothing is causing the gantry to jitter, and the red dot stays in place.

    I...
  8. The ongoing saga - this time on wood - engraver not finishing the job

    Thank you for some of the things to check with my earlier problems, after replacing my lens and mirrors. The problems persist, though.

    On another medium, this time cedar planking (of the sort you...

    I'll have to check, but thanks for the heads up, Jerome and Bert.

    I was finally able to get the name tags done with minimal flaring and burn, but it took quite a few passes (two to engrave; four...

    Hi, Tony. I have to assume it is laserable plastic, as I got it from Laserbits, they knowing what I needed it for. Not sure what you mean by a vector cutting table. It is the one that came with...

    sooooo, I'm back, and have replaced the tube, and all the mirrors, and it works great on wood.

    Laserable plastic, not so much. I'm still not getting enough right through the material to cut out...
  12. Okay, so I've replaced the tube (who knew what...

    Okay, so I've replaced the tube (who knew what that would cost, wow!). Sadly the same original problem persists. However, I finally got the courage to actually take the mirrors out of their...

    Thanks, folks, I'll give Epilog a call next week. Sadly I had to leave the computer for a while and I'm just getting caught up. Have a good weekend. Paul+
  14. problem with 30 watt Zing, not engraving/cutting with ease anymore

    Greetings, all.

    Recently, every engraving job I've tried to do involving laserable plastic has messed up, and I don't know why. My most recent fail, earlier today was to engrave some store name...
  15. Hi Phil. I tried both diamond dragging and...

    Hi Phil. I tried both diamond dragging and rotary (since it was a stainless steel, as in a reworked old saw-blade, that I was cutting into). I think that my best bet might be to use my laser...
  16. Thanks Phil, I'll look into it. Paul+

    Thanks Phil, I'll look into it. Paul+

    Welcome to the club, Joe. Hope you find all you need here. I certainly have.

    It's kinda hard to tell from their photo, in regards to how it is connected to the machine. I can give them a call on Tuesday and check. If it can attach, it looks good. Thanks Tony.

    Well, I have some Silvo and some Brasso. I can give them a try. Thanks again, Mike
  20. That, along with Mike's earlier suggestion of...

    That, along with Mike's earlier suggestion of clamps would do the job, I should think. Thanks, Keith.
  21. I can certainly give that a try. Thanks, Scott.

    I can certainly give that a try. Thanks, Scott.

    Squeeze clamps and spacers? Hmmm, sounds like just the ticket. Maybe them in conjunction with a homemade wood slab as a foundation would work. The current sticky table would be too wide, I think....
  23. That's a great idea. The only thing that I would...

    That's a great idea. The only thing that I would want to change, perhaps, is the angle of the camera so that I would be looking slightly down onto the work, and not across it. But that's me. ...
  24. Advice needed, please - Aftermarket Jig for Gravograph M40?

    Hi folks. I'm looking for some jig or other device that will let me lock down odd shaped projects for my M40 cutter-engraver. Lately I've been getting requests to engrave the blades of Inuit ulus...
