From what I'd read a dead tube was expected.

PM sent with email address.

Dave you were referring to the LaserCut and not the tube being usuable, correct?

Thanks Jerome, I'll take a look see.

After many years of holding down the concrete I've plans to attempt once again to get a functioning laser.

Does any one know if the latest version of LaserCut 6.1 is compatible with the older...

Not sure what you are saying there :) but the end result is fantastic!

That's just flat out awesome John!

It's always prudent to be extra safe with these type of sales/purchases, that's why I always send the wife.

Ha Ha, yes Craig List people can be a strange, no, make that a very strange bunch, on second thought make that just flat out weird.
Thankfully, there are the normal human beings selling as well,...

Andrew,
Do you happen to be any relation to a Gertrude Bradley, she was my Grandmother?
The reason I ask is because you both seem to...

OK Beat this,
When I was growing up Doctors made house calls.
In my case it was Dr Moffett.

I had one of those 58 tbirds as well Fred, a Classic.

How about 8 track tapes?

Somebody stop, my mind...

Shotguns in our trunks in the school parking lot to go hunting after school, probably would not want to try that now.

Ethyl, haha had forgotten all about Ethyl.

Are you saying that there are actually vehicles with out these :D

I wasn't even a teenager but remember when my Dad had a Gulf station and we sold gas for 17.9 cents a gallon every day.

Any one...

Just saw this tonight Vicki,
Congratulations !

I could use some of that tenacity of your's :)

Jeff,
Have you actually tried your terminal via VOIP?
I use a terminal over Magic Jack, probably the worst type of VOIP and while it's not 100% reliable the 1st time through for the most part works...

Thanks Dave,
That must be what I have but it never has worked, pretty much like every thing else on this laser from the get go :(

Soon as weather breaks going to have at it again, right now just...

Greg,
Can you describe what a "collinear red dot" is and where it is located?

Mine came with two, one mounted at the laser tube output end that never did work so removed and the 2nd mounted at...

All I have been talking about is supply voltage, that's it, I've hinted at nothing beyond that.

It sounds like you are going to have to start replacing things to find out, that's unfortunate.
Is...

You don't have a multi meter?

"But this is not my area of expertise."
Definitely not mine either. :)

I was talking about main supply voltage lines, starting right out of the Circuit box right up to the plug where it enters...

Jeffrey,
Don't think I over looked as I read all the post but have you checked the main supply line voltage, then follow that through as far as you can go to be sure it is proper voltage through ?

Maybe this could be of use, hardboard tempered panel, very stiff.
It's a type of MDF but tempered and smoother....

It's not sub zero but tube are too expensive to unnecessarily risk.
It has water in it but is protected with antifreeze so that is fine.

I'll wait till warmer weather or take time one day to heat...

Would like to run some tests but the room the Laser is in is unheated and at freezing temps presently.
Can there be potential tube cracking issues with firing it at low temperatures?

It can wait...

John,
Your opinion, do you find it useful?
