@les

Isn’t the filter basically a fan, box and tube? I would’ve thought your engineers would have that figured out pretty quickly. I’m sure you’ve allocated all personnel to focus on getting the GF to work right, but seems an odd thing seen from the point of view of your not-as-eagerly awaiting customers.

@dan

It’s easy to filter air. We’ve hired an air quality consulting firm to ensure we do it safely and right - it’s a much harder problem.

This is one case where GlowForge has correctly prioritized their focus. Most of us would like to have a GF in hand even if we have to deal with the temporary inconvenience of plumbing it out the window.
