Yes. That's the chap I'm going to talk to.

Bert, I need to talk to the Australian distributor about another matter. Happy to ask him if he's sold any for leather marking and if I can have their contact details. They aren't back at work till...

Anyone else getting a private video message on Kev's video?

Hi Soren,
No way to do it easily unfortunately. You can decrease the size from 4mm to 3mm but the overall size needs to be 0.75 smaller. I recently did a large wooden animal head that used 3mm...

The easiest way I've found to do the third mirror is take the lens out and replace it with a 3mm piece of MDF, or similar, the same size as the lens. Pulse your laser. Pull the mdf lens out and you...

Alibaba have a trade assurance program as well. I used it when I bought my GWeike machine.

Hi Klause - Sewing machine oil as it doesn't have the additional additives as normal engine type oils.

Sometime ago someone mentioned using glyphosate. Glyphosate doesn't break down over time (so don't pour it on your lawn when your finished with it) and I've been using a very weak mixture for well...

It's a Kiwi thing :)

Hi Martin,
With my 1200x900 machine I taped up the rear pass thru, put foam tape on the gap around the main door and cover up as much of the cutting bed as possible leaving a gap of about...

Jack,
I have a friend who lives in Sydney, neighbors close on both sides, and he vents straight outside to a PVC chimney. He hasn't had a complaint in four years. I live rural so neighbors aren't an...

Hi Jack,
Could you tell us where in Oz your located and what you will be cutting?

Another thing that created the error on my machine was excess speed.

Hi Rich,

Have you tried the reset button on the control panel? With my machine, I need to do a reset to get rid of the error.

Only a newbie myself Rob but I'd like to try and give a bit back. The piece of acrylic is your focal length gauge used horizontally. On one of the threads here it explains how to draw up a grid of...

Good suggestion Dave, I'll definitely do that. Ray, just checked the return voltage wire, seems to be fine. For whatever reason, the wire has been joined halfway down the length of the tube with what...

Thanks guys, I appreciate your help. On closer inspection the internals of the connector don't look salvageable. I had ordered replacement leads before I posted but needed to get a couple of jobs...

Thanks Mark. Wonder if its worthwhile cleaning it up, wrapping some electrical tape around the connector and retrying? The controller reset itself back to Chinese.

Hi All,

After several months of problem free lasering, today one of the leads arced out onto the body of the machine. Would anyone be able to advise why it would arc at this connection. This is...

I have been using VCarve Pro to do all the design work and adjustment for my CNC machine. I've had my laser for three months now and just bring the drawing in DXF format from VCarve into Corel change...

Thanks for the response Deane. I know there are a lot of happy Redsail users out there and I will be one of them. All part of the new machine syndrome. It feels like it needs a CTL, ALT, DEL windows...

Hi Guys,

First time poster so be gentle. Received my CM1290 130watt about a fortnight ago and thought it would be a fairly easy transition from my home built Joe's CNC to the laser. I expected to...
