    I run into that same error of too many objects to sort. They fixed it once and after that, I never had any issues. Seems like it's broken again because I got the message again just this week and I...

    I agree, that's out of line. There's was a guy about 2 months ago trying to sell a 45W Trotec Speedy 300 with a bad tube for about $5,000. With a tube recharge, that would be in the $6,000 range, so...

    I've not heard that the estimator was broken. I have two machines running 11 or higher and haven't noticed any issues with that. I don't use it a lot but I do use it and haven't seen the errors.

    I've been around engraving lasers for a while now. I've seen a couple 50W fiber galvo lasers out there but in all the posts I've seen around the internet, I've never seen anyone with a 100W Chinese...

    It's not scratching anything, the scratches are in the metal before it's powdercoated. They use reject stainless cups to powdercoat because it hides everything. They don't care that people are laser...

    It's likely not the table, it's the head tilted at an angle. You can check that by measuring the distance between the table and the bottom of the X-Axis bar at all 4 corners. It should be the same....

    Sounds like the head isn't square with the table. Pretty common. They don't do much alignment on that since most people never need to move the head up or down on the same item.

    Depends on what you do with it. If you are vector cutting shapes all day, then probably not. If you are engraving, then it's a simple exercise in math, regardless of the brand you are looking at.

    Hi Gary, it is a Raspberry Pi and the camera for it. Costs about $60-75 if I recall correctly. It's been in use for years now and never had a problem with it. I made a little acrylic mount and found...

    I've seen your issue before and it's been color related. I had items that worked beautifully, then a new color came in from the same place, same process. It would NOT remove all the color. I don't...

    There is a tool for that. You used to be able to rent them. It's a small device that you put in the laser, put it in the path of the beam and manually fire the beam. It absorbs the energy and reports...

    Go into Node Editing and slide the reduce node slider (if it's still there) and it'll automatically reduce the nodes. I haven't used it in a long time but I have certainly used it in the past.
