Thanks guys- I have the Ultimate Air assist set up with more mods of my own- I have found several places to enable the 'wind' terminal and have ticked all of them, still no [negative] signal on the...

I have a new machine with one and I cannot get the air assist [wind connection] to function. I tried a different [RDC6442] controller and it works. Thanks Gene

For $350 you can buy a new Ruida 6442 controller, software is free [no dongle] and you can try Lightburn. I have tried Lasercut and switched to Ruida and never looked back.

We are going to Puerto Vallarta this winter for a week. Never been there but going with young relatives who speak Spanish. Gene

Bert I would love to see a pict of that feature, I am working on the extraction on my machine and that sounds like a nice feature. Thanks Gene

I had two Bodors [exactly the same machines] ordered two weeks apart, they were... similar. Gene

Ocooch Hardwoods is good. www.ocoochhardwoods.com

I also wonder if the SS pins will attract a magnet- some SS alloys seem to not? Did you answer why you are using 2 drilled plates? Thanks Gene

I also wondered why both sheets have holes? I have built something similar with 2"x.125" roll pins from Fastenal- what size are the holes- exactly 1/8"? Thanks Gene

I found the UAC and set it to the least intrusive setting, that did not do it. By right clicking the program icon at the bottom of the screen I was able to select run as administrator ( the computer...

This is a new one to me. Windows 10 home- I tried deleting and reloading and looking for that file. Anyone have any ideas? I loaded the same program(RDworksV8.01.19) on Vista and Win 7 pro. Gene

Try ungrouping and re-grouping? Gene

They have to be rgb colors- Boss laser has a nice test file download with (mostly) colors that are not used in RDworks... but you cannot select them as they are not added to the lower color bar. Gene

I have a great Chicom laser- very well built with good parts (EFR tube and 3phase steppers, etc) and once sorted (and the DSP changed from Leetro to Ruida- as I prefer RDworks software) I am...

I am also delighted with my Chinese laser with 2" FL lens- it will cut .5 Corian and oak and engraving is quite passable for engraving- notice the 10/10- 100 engraving below the eagle (.060...

R.E beam expansion in the machine- my beam out of the tube is 7.55mm and at the farthest point away it is 8.6mm. Just measured it today for Marco at LightObject. Gene

Hi John- what is candy lam, please? Thanks Gene

I believe it is what my graphics program calls a Twain acquire, like from a scanner. Gene

As Keith sez- this looks somewhat similar to RDworks (Ruida DSP)- what dsp is yours, Kev. Thanks Gene

Hi Kev- very interesting... gotta wonder what DSP and software you are talking about. Thanks Gene

I have the Duets sample (chip) book- which is about $45 but very nice (they actually sent a whole new inner section a while ago when they came out with a few new products- nice) and have experimented...

I switched from a Leetro (LaserCut 6.1) to the LO R5 which is a Ruida 4662 DSP. Went pretty well and RDworks V8 (which you can download the full version from Ruida) is a great program which I am...

Thanks for the reply David. I am still not getting it to work. I would really appreciate it if you would review your steps on your machine. I have found that it takes only a very small deviation from...

There is a good exploration of a Ruida control machine at this site: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXIDwQxhX3k- also see Russ's video #58 for his previous experiments. Very smart guy. (not as smart...

I had to shim my cutting head to be square with the gantry- another possibility? Gene
