Defective Cable
My Shark HD510 is going on 5 years old. Hundreds of projects. A few years ago I had a defective cable going to the Z motor it had a splice with a open conductor that was in the chain track. They sent me a motor with cable kit. I replaced the cable and it was fixed. Three years later I had this happe...

Re: Tapered Work Piece Question
I don't have the hardware for this nor have I done it. But I have seen 4th axis videos on youtube that have Aspire / Vcarve videos doing this. If my memory is correct. I didn't tag them but look on youtube for them.

Re: 20 watt laser need blue locktite
I did remove the damaged protective lens. Ran some tests and found the laser to be working like new. The new parts came in from Atomstack and are installed. I did get a small screw driver allen wrench set found in the Lowes electrical tools section. I figured I will be taking this apart often and ne...

Re: 20 watt laser need blue locktite
While were all in the learning mode. Here is a update to the Laser Test Card files. I changed the power settings all from where I was using 100% power to 90% power. Added reminders to clean the Laser Lens and to check that it was tight so it doesn't come loose and fall into the cone air assist and t...

Re: 20 watt laser need blue locktite
I never got a call back from Brad at Nextwave CNC tech support yesterday. He was going to check with his boss on what to do with this 2 month old 20 watt laser and get back with me. I tried 3 times today to get ahold of Nextwave Tech Support. Line was busy all 3 times. Anyone have a secret handshake...

Re: 20 watt laser need blue locktite
Well yesterday. My laser quit cutting and the laser light was much larger than usual. I removed it from the shark and looked it over. Removed the safety laser shield. Then removed the air assist cone to find the brass lens nut had unscrewed and fallen off and was sitting in the bottom of the cone. T...

Re: Outlets Needed
Just one 20 amp circuit run up to the shark. I then plug in one power strip with maybe 6 plugs in it. From that I have a smaller extension cord that goes down to feed the speed control and router relay and spot light.

Re: New 7 watt laser not working
I added a 20 watt laser and made dust collector sliding gate that vents the dust collector either exhaust outside or inside if it's really cold outside. Works great. Here is a video on it.
