Laser - Z-axis?

[Diane Sudduth]

I've been asked by a friend to do some double-sided laser stuff on 1/8" material (which I don't have and won't have for a minimum of a week and possibly longer) and was curious if we had any idea when the z-axis belt might be able to be replaced?    I'm not in a rush, just curious, as I can't really do this job unless I can adjust the Z....

Thanks!

Travis is out all this week.  Also, I don't know how much of a priority he will make this before mid-August however.  He's got a valid excuse. 

Not sure if anyone else is looking at it?

Can the table be manually adjusted?  I'm remembering that's how it used to work way back before the newer controller was installed.

Belt has arrived but I'm out of town.

Thanks, Travis.  


Keith, the z-axis belt broke recently and there is currently a clamp-like thing holding a temporary in place but it's currently sent for deep cutting and can't be adjusted for more shallow material.    Some things can be cut using a shim, but it's difficult for precision double-sided engraving which is what I'm interested in this time.

All better now!

Came by the space to try a keychain for a friend and even slow the text is engraving really fuzzy.   Cuts worked ok, though.

You did a million other things last night, easy to forget one little thing.   Next time you have time...

Interesting fuzz. Looks like it's ghosting.

looks like laser isn't making a clean escape and is reflecting off of something.
