Can’t tell from the 2nd picture what the black thing is. Capacitor, chip…?

Capacitor

Congrats on fixing your Glowforge! I’m afraid this level of repair is beyond what I am willing/able/brave enough to try, so when the time comes I will have to let Glowforge repair mine.

Can you tell us which part you replaced, the specs, and where you got it? The details can help someone else later on.
