Laser cutter smokey

[marka...@hotmail.com]

Afternoon all.

The laser cutter seems to be kicking out lots of smoke. Its not what I'm cutting burning, its as if the extractor isnt working?

Is anyone around the space abailable to make sure I'm not burning the place down?

Hi,

I have been made aware of the smoke problem, It isn't what you are doing and you shouldn't have a problem. I think it is the extraction and I'll be in over the next couple of days to look at it.

Is it safe to keep using, is there anything I can do to mitigate the smoke/stop the fire alarm going off?

[Emily Roe]

Not really, let it rest a little before opening lid is all. What are you cutting?

Probably best to disable it. Ive let it rest and cut what I needed to cut without issues, but theres a fair few people in this afternoo 

3mm Kitronik laser safe MDF - nothing that I had issues with the last time I cut
