Ive always used tap water, never had a problem , i have loads of distilled water at work we use it in the cyanoacrylate manufacture to wash the polymer ,but i have never put it in the laser, when chris delivered the laser i put the water in and got it from the tap, ive been runing the same laser for...

Cyno, i have that glue, zap. I use it when building my model planes.. and also for glueing myself to various things like a galss lampshade still in situ on the ceiling. Be carefull on perspex with cyano , it does have to be the odourless ( foam safe ) one to be safest as the standard type CA ( ethy...

I had this with newly draw when using turbocad , once i asked on here and Spooky said to use the r2000 version of file , i could do this with autocad and it worked but it didnt work with Turbocad, ive never had a problem since with autocad but ive now mainly been using Draftsight and it works just a...

As spooky says a dichloromethane based weld is best for welding there are other solvent welds but dichloromethane works best, we do one `poly weld` that has some other solvents such as methylmethacrylate ( the monomer used to produce perspex ) in it as well ,it works similar to the one with acetic a...

For the last few years ive had mine in the factory all the time, no heating at all it gets very cold , i never have left the water turned on pumping but ive always left the tank and laser full of water and its never frozen once even when we had ice on the windows and inside of the roof, its not that...

The temperature change with ice cubes will not be a problem , the temperature changes quite slowly, ive used it quite a bit and we use it quite often on small distillation setups in the lab with glass condensors when vaccum distilling to knock temperature sof condensate down rapidly

I tend to cut about 5 hours at a time , if the temp starts to get high ( or if im going to be doing a lot of cutting of plywood at higher power ) i drop a couple of ice cubes in the tank,it seems to work fine and keeps it nice and cool.

I am running newlydraw, but ive always presumed the power was a percent of the power so would be roughly the same between machines on the same power tube I always cut with the lowest power needed, at a sensible speed but any higher power even with higher speed gives me problems with burning undernea...

Im cutting perspex on 18 speed and 65 power on the 3040 , ive never had to use 100% power for anything

When mine has lost the ability to cut this its been down to one of 2 things, the most usual one has been i have knocked it to manual power instead of the computer controling it as i put the material in to cut , i have a 3040 so its probably not the same? but i have a switch just in the front corner ...
