not to throw water on yer fires, but that value chart, in every instance, bases the BTU value on the weight-per-cord of the wood, regardless OF the...

-- last time we got checks, Saturday this showed up-- One of two I'm assuming- seems they are still using debit cards! No rhyme or reason I guess.

Never had a MOPA so I know very little about them. I just no that there's no "Q" setting on my fibers! as to 'the look' of the mark you want to...

One Beeeleeon Dollars... That's enough that you can spend $100,000 per day every day for 25 years before burning thru it. So, at that rate: ...

This was in with a batch of old pics on the wife's phone, no idea where it came from but made me laugh :)

doing the math, we're only 71% done with this month- if you're going to reduce the lengths of months by nearly 30%, time is REALLY gonna fly by! ;)

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patty Whack. "Miss Whack, I'd like to get a...

Cermark costs about half as much to use per dollar made as the vig Paypal and the CC company's charge to collect that dollar...

I started an air cleaner thread last August ('product shout out'), about the Alen we bought in July- then in mid September this thread was started:...

How about some real-life levity? Just got this email:

good point, that works too :)

----There's just some things you can't do in smaller machines ;) --being able to do some of those things will bring in work! (mind you, not...

Every type of machine run by computer requiring a 'starting point' relies on some sort of switch to determine that point. I mean, you car won't even...

By 'E stop', you mean the 'find home' limit switches? You can put them anywhere you want, just make sure the switch will operate, and be aware of...

The strap's visible above the top sheet, could be the the strap chewed thru the top 4 sheets... What'll make that a safer trip, is to remove the...

The reason I asked about the 100% power thing is because I suspect some folks feel it'll shorten the life span of the tube. Since 2001 I've owned 5...

I'm sorry, but I'm an old guy who grew up with cars with chrome and white lettered tires. This is my 2002 bought new, never garaged, rarely...

Sorry, but I'm curious as to why (it seems) many users never run at 100% power when cutting-? I can understand it with higher power machines, but...

sorry if this seems a dumb question: did you clear the memory on the machine?

"Epis" comes up zilch on google-? On a Trotec, assuming an RF laser, "Freq" most likely is a 'new' term used in place of DPI/dots per inch. I've...

The 'speckling' is indicative of polycarbonate. The stuff actually boils and makes crackling noises while engraving, and it does go dark... I...

I believe (going from memory, which is suspect these days ;) ) my Gravo rep told me he could get me a 150w LS1000 for $55k... lots of cash but...

*many* published speed/power settings are practically useless-- I'd pay money to see any 30w machine 1-pass-cut 1/8" anything at 70% power and 70%...

I own 4 C02 lasers and 3 fiber lasers. The reason is, no matter how fast any of them are, any one machine can be a bottleneck... My Gravograph (you...

google 'virus/germ killing mask', lots of ideas in play...

This is REALLY funny, I dropped off some junk at the local landfill last saturday, and the speed limit there is 23-1/2 -- :D

Worst static shocks I've ever gotten, and still get, are simply from pulling 2 sheets of plastic apart. The worst is when one or both of them have...

I'm not against lab created meat, or anything else really. Spooky, yeah a little but more fascinating than spooky. What humans are capable of these...
