James, as a fellow Rabbit owner, it sound to me the problem may be software related. Have you tried reinstalling the software?
My experience is that the Rabbit hardware is reliable. My machine was...
Thanks for the info Joe. I never thought of using latex paint. When you say it doesn't handle well, do you mean the surface scratches or it tends to peel off the acrylic?
Thanks,
David
I have 2 reception signs to do for a company and will glue painted acrylic letters on a clear acrylic background. The logos have specific colours which I have to mix and I intend to paint the acrylic...
Thanks Bill, I'll give the cherry setting a try

I've used Photograv 2 for a few months. What are the tendencies of the common material choices. For example, do some result in higher contrast settings etc. The actual names don't really tell you...
I've had good results with a matte black spanish made tile. The key is to look on the back of the tile for evidence of the "undercoat" or underglaze. It should be white. If I recall, I used about 70...
Do you believe everything you read Eric? My "unique challenge" is deciding what to do with the extra $20 000 I didn't spend on my laser. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have as much "idle" time as...
I found a spanish tile. It has a matte finish without a gloss glaze applied. If you look at the back or edge of the tile you will see a white glazing applied under the black surface glaze. This...
Hi, I've had mine for close on a year. Do mostly acrylic prefab and photo murals and anything else I can really. Battled a bit with photos at first but seemed to have got the hang of it. Believe it...
I noticed Rabbit (hxlaser.com) now offers a RF laser option with their laser.
I enquired and my laser the Rabbit HX6090SE (60cm x 90cm) is $6700 with a 30W and $9500 with a 70W and $13000 for a...
I found and fixed the problem which was due to my error in reconnecting the machine. I'm a bit red faced because the problem was that I had connected the water supply backwards and the sensor was...
Hi Pete, mine doesn't have a safety switch, maybe not required for EC cert. I'll try to short out the water flow sensor. Could have been water left in there and it dried out over the months. Seems...
I have a Rabbit HX6090se that has not been used for a few months and was disconnected and stored. It was workring perfectly when stored but now the laser (about 12 months old) won't fire. CNC...
I have the Rabbit HX6090SE and am happy with it. The company has been responsive to any requests. I've had it for about a year and have not had any need for spares yet. The key is to understand the...
I have the HX6090SE from Rabbit and the tube has lasted with little noticeable drop in power for 10 months. I did however buy a backup because they are glass and are fragile.
I set up a type of template which graphs speed vs power, one for cutting and one for engraving. Each has a graph for the typical materials I use and the thickness when cutting. Look like rectangular...
4. Unsharpen Mask is a Photoshop filter, found in the Filters menu. If you apply the filter it gives you 3 sliders to adjust the variables. You can apply it more than once by simply applying the...
James, congrats on purchasing your new Rabbit laser. I have the HX6090SE and after setup, it works fine. Once you are familiar with the range of settings etc, it will do the job for you. If you have...
Rodney, as an owner of a Rabbit machine, I agree with you 100%. I'd rather be in business with a Chinese machine now than with one costing 4 or 5 times as much in two years. And yes, my competition...
Frank, I owned an Audi that gave me nothing but trouble from day one...and, the service department was unresponsive and wouldn't admit to me that the problem was design related. My point is, don't...
Hi Harry,
I have a Chinese built laser that I bought from Rabbit Laser, hxlaser.com about 10 months ago and have had a good experience. The model I bought is the HX6090SE. Yes, there were some...
Rodne, a thumbs up for the HX6090SE which we've had going for the last 5 months or so. We're based in Romania but i'm a fellow expat born in Cape Town but left years ago. These machines are quite...
To have the machine start where the head is, make sure that you uncheck the "datum" option in the software options. What it is doing is returning to the 0,0 point which can be a bit irritating and...
