I received my glowforge in early November and eagerly hooked it up and started printing away. I’m not sensitive to the smell of a laser, even the k40 wasn’t too bad unless I forgot to turn the blower on. Venting on the Glowforge works pretty well, but I wasn’t really impressed.
The other day I was walking by the vent, (a dryer vent) and I saw the grill was on the floor, and it looked like something was growing out of it.
Prior to the arrival of the glowforge, I had stuffed a sock in the vent to prevent the cold air from entering. The fan had finally expelled the sock.
It seems to vent better now.
Heck, I believe that tops the “forgetting to open the blast gate” stories.
