Hello!
I am going to build a further laser y-400, and I am here from Tim Mellor, who did an amazing job with a wiring diagram.
I am a beginner when it comes to electronics wiring, so that is what I will be looking for help with.
Thanks
Pete Cyr

Welcome Noah,

much easier to have a bit more space to put some information in than Farcebook PM's :) My return there is about up with maybe a very very occasional return to the Laser Builders Guild group to share something.

@ Pete careful I might Blush :lol:

Hi Noah
I have just finished the 1200 build from Further.
I changed the layout design somewhat but the electronics was pretty straight forward.
The one thing I was sure to do was put in circuit breakers on all lines especially the one that powered the HV. That way I could work on the machine without having to worry about the HV till I was ready to do so/
As I now have a 4 mirror set up I am finding the alignment a trifle more complex, but am waiting for a new adjustable head mount that will make it considerably easier.
Good luck and anything I can help with message me.
Neil
