    I am having fun with my first laser engraver, and today I separated it from the stand and removed the board that has the fried capacitor/coil tuned circuit. My question is- does anyone...

    I did some shopping for black granite tiles today, and locally in the box stores, there seems to be only Home Depot that carries them. I thought Lowe's would have also, but they did not stock them,...

    Well! Today, I aligned the laser beam, and it is engraving as well as I can expect with only half a tube working, but now it is skipping a 1/4" area about 1/3 of the way down my graphic picture. The...

    Ok, after messing around with focal length, I am getting some results, even though I have only one side of the tube powered up. It is rastering, in combined mode, and it will burn a line into wood,...
