This morning before starting another big job I cleaned the laser, not just lenses/mirrors but blew out the dust with air and vacuumed it. Found a few odd bits in the bottom, but apparently something, probably a bit of card stock went into the exhaust. All day long it made an annoying sound trying to get out of the 4" metal elbow, bouncing around in there. Finally just now it made it, and now apparently is hitting the squirrel cage. Just making a ticking sound but out front in the showroom, where the plastic pipe goes above the drop ceiling, it's transmitting a vibration and real loud hum. I wonder if the people above me are getting it up there. I hate to have to take it all apart when I'm within a month or two of moving anyway.
