Just an observation on my part but it seems that since the engraving forums split, active participation is down substantially. Could be everyone's on vacation...

Since I work 15-17 hours a day 7 days a week, this forum is my respite several times a day. And lately everythings too quiet... like now, the 'general' forum has had not a single new topic or addition since I posted up at 1:42am this morning, 22 hours ago. The last anything in the hardware section was in the 'Glowforge' thread about an hour ago, before that a post from Bert about 3 hours ago, before that was nearly 28 hours ago yesterday morning...

Not sure what's up exactly, but there's not much action, and I miss it...
