Hello,
My Name is Tom, and I am from the Upstate of SC. I recently got a 50W Orion Motor Tech Laser for my birthday. I am interested in woodworking, and have a graphic arts background, so a laser seemed to be a logical next step.

Right now, I'm having an issue with the Vendor and User settings after performing a reset to the defaults. Looking for the System and User files for my Laser.

I have watched about 15 episodes of the YouTube Channel and am excited about the possibilities. I originally bought the laser as a hobby, but think I can turn it into a side hustle once I get it working again.
