When you get metric in the UI. Please locate a toggle switch in the menu bar to dynamically switch between the two units. This would make life so much easier for us engineers who use both systems in designs.

Also a drop down menu with customer defined power/speed/thickness related to materials. For us folks who do a lot of prototyping of the same parts with tweaks it would reduce frustration and working time drastically…

thanks

No news on the air filters - the schedule in glowforge.com/account is the most up-to-date information.

Oops - I heard we had some folks pushed early, and the cut & score options are reversed. We’re fixing and should have everything out tomorrow. In the mean time, double check before you print.

Oops.

My metric Gift of Good Measure has disappeared. I guess they’re replacing it. The ruler looks ok. :slight_smile:

Congratulations on clearing such a large number of hurdles. I don’t know that I would have bet on shipping to the EU before Canada though, so that is interesting.

The dashboard should make a lot of people happy too.

And one can never have enough measuring sticks. Thanks for the updated ones :slight_smile:

As nifty as NAFTA is, I’m sure there are plenty of hurdles. Also we don’t know what their distribution of orders looks like; if they had a lot more EU orders than Canadian orders, it would make a lot of sense to focus on getting those done. I imagine it’s a fairly similar amount of work on the regulatory side, even if shipping is probably more of a headache for EU orders.
