This covers basic costs of things that need replacing, such as mirrors, laser tube, belts etc. = Maintenance = Regular maintenance to be undertaken should be * cleaning of mirrors * calibration of the Z height * check for damage to mirrors * checking belts for tension * checking calibration via known print (eg 10mm x 10mm cube) = Pledge = Status 2019: cathode+anode cables are loose - graphite/difficult to solder someone fixed/bypassed it using this: https://dzone.com/articles/replacing-a-cheap-chinese-co2-laser-tube we should order https://nl.mouser.com/ProductDetail/571-1-5050871-9 as it worked for above user also it should be rotated a bit so the connectors face "up" Since the machine is broken, we've started a pledge to buy a new laser tube. This might not be the only problem, it seems there's a firmware issue that needs looking at.
