You have made my day. Thank You. Now all you have yo do is offer never ending warranty.
Nice job with the fire extinguisher!
Now you can go shower and get all of the tomatoes off! 
Down the road if regional qualified tube replacement becomes a consideration, An avenue to apply for training through your employee recruitment page might be a good idea.
The competent crowd here contains many who could be taught in the time it takes to witness a single tube replacement. I am one of them.
This is an affirmation of my already stated belief that, in general, people (including those at Glowforge) are good.
This response was pleasantly much quicker than I expected. It is also much better. It has led to us, the customers, having choices. Send it in or self repair.
Seriously, out of this we see a certified tubeoligist /repair tech program would be great. I could even see doing this as my main gig as they start leaving warranty.
I could as well⦠if I wasnt in the middle of BFE⦠hahaha. As far as I know Iām the only GF buyer in a 3 hour radius, but Iām still down for certification just for my own benefit⦠because I am a knowledge collector.
Thatās a perfect quote for the next t-shirt design.
Gotta be someone in Vegas that purchased oneā¦that would at lead narrow it to 2.5 hr radius. BTW, used to live in Yuma so I can relate to BFEā¦
Thanks @dan! You do deserve all the love people are showing because you listen and respond. I had no doubt you would find a reasonable solution and you didnāt let me down. Oh and im still standing by my willingness to become a certified GF tech should the opportunity and need arise.
Thank you for listening @Dan, especially when what weāre saying probably isnāt what you want to hear
it means a lot.
Thanks @dan! Your listening to us is more than appreciated!
My favorite Tubes. Well at least until I get my 'forge.
Thank you @dan or the quick response to the furor. Iām hopeful that by the time my tube needs swapped, Iāll need and have another 'forge for backup. Iāve stayed with you this far. Iād kick myself for not making it the last few inches. This thing is going to be AWESOME. I just canāt wait. And I have little doubt that the wait will have been worthwhile.
Great news, thank you!
Iāll pass on the AFL, rugby or other ball sports
Iāll stick to archery, but at least thereās some good places to shoot in Sydney 
That is what I call embracing the community. A heartfelt thank you!
free project in the store to laser engrave our own T-shirt? Proof grade woven cotton?
This is like one of those superhero moments when the Flash or some other hero realizes, thanks to his friends, that he cannot kill. In this case, without embracing the community, that rallied to created the greatest success in crowd funding history, Glowforge is but an idea. With us, we are an unstoppable glowforce!
I assume the glowforce is like a lantern corps what with lasers and all?
I drive slow. HAhahaha. According to the Glowforge buyer map which is voluntary, there are 3 people in Vegas that ordered. But since there are only 788 entries on the map out of 10,000 units, obviously not many are checking online communities.
Why, of course!
