Hi All,
By now you've probably heard the laser cutter in room 2025 is out of action.
It appears that the number 2 mirror (on the left hand side of the machine) wasn't pushed all the way in and when the laser hit the side of it the coating was destroyed, then the housing was demagnetized resulting in the stray beam melting the y-axis drive belt.
The end result is we have a $850 repair bill.
It's going to be fixed on Friday morning ... so you'll get access again after that.
I'm going to speak to Andrew Macklin regarding a further extension so you can finish off well.
Please take extra care when replacing the mirrors after you've inspected/cleaned them; if you are at all unsure do not proceed ... contact me or Hank Haeusler.
Finally, as a reminder, always ensure the extraction unit is on before cutting.
Cheers
