not cutting very deep

[Kris and Dave]

Thanks for all the help guys. We are now up and running

Thanks to some support from a local engineer the following issues were identified:

• The air compressor pipe was blocked
  The alignment was way out
  I didn't know how to focus it properly
  Everything was covered in soot from the series of small fires I'd caused by having a blocked air compressor pipe

The cut on HIPS isn't perfect and we may look at using a different material but playing with the speed and power settings we've got it pretty good now.

Off to play

HIPS is an aweful substrate to cut, the corners round and it gives off pretty nasty fumes

It doesn't *vaporise* in the true sense, it just melts and drips away

best wishes

I discovered that one, shame, as it was ideal for thickness and colour.
