Gday
Live down in Australia in Brisbane. Have HD a Chinese blue white 50w for over a year now and been mucking around with it understanding different functions and settings etc. my wife uses it for small business type opportunists so really I’m the fixerer guy.

Predominantly use lightburn as its simple for my wife.
Recently was trying to hook up an ult air assist and after much tinkering couldn’t get it to work eventually i managed to put short the pins for the top wisdom controller and ‘poof’ the magic smoke came out. So decided to get a ruida 6445. Still in the middle of swapping it over.

Recently had a small fire also which has prompted a small rebuild and as a result looking back over some of russ’ videos. Fantastic stuff. Looking at getting a few spares inc a bigger tube and having the old as a spare. (Pretty sure it’s really only a 40w - need to work that out one day.)

Got a wonky table going down in the z axis - the stabilisers/bearings wobble a great deal so have packed them but even still moving the z axis means that it can’t hit the same spot after adjustment - could also be slightly to do with out alightment of beam down the tube but I can also see it wobbble.
Otherwise it’s a fun bit of kit
Cheers ryan
