On Feb 4, “Glowlocity” arrived by the brown-clad storks. After about a week of studying its features and burning cords of wood in the laser printer. I even took on a project that perhaps wasn’t for beginners (ask Jules slight_smile). I plowed through nonetheless because I must be challenged to le…

Well, your prototypes turned out just lovely. (Sorry for the temp delay though, that’s rather a bit of a bummer!) :neutral_face:

I owe my thanks to you. Now I can seem to get two other files created in Inkscape to print on separate layers. Driving me nuts!!

Dang. That’s concerning. Ususally when a new device is going to fail, it does so right off the bat. I know what you feel, I owe her too!

One of the issues is Dan has said we shouldn’t remove the glass ends as it will spoil the factory calibration. I don’t think you can get to anything without removing those.

I hope Those “significant changes” to the OS machines is part adaptabilty to allow for many of the warrenty repairs to be done at home

What “significant changes”? [image] Discussion of February update (We won’t comment on the differences but they’re trivial and don’t affect usage, longevity, safety, or anything else helpful).

[image] jamesdhatch: power supplies & tubes need to be shippable & user replaceable The power supply, as it sits now, would be a difficult replacement for a typical user. The HV lead and current sense wire run through the flexible cable tray and are not easy to feed back through once you pul…
