== Status ==
* (2019/07/25) Beam Combiner installed; Mirrors and Red beam aligned. Red dot is slightly left (about 3/4 of a dot) of actual cut. A few more parts needed, but the Boss is operational.
* (2019/06/26) Working, 4-in Len replaced by Joe M. Still waiting on Beam Combiner.
* (2019/06/15) Working, 4-in Lens is cracked from overtightening -- DO NOT CLEAN --; Mirrors aligned. Beam Combiner and replacement lens on order.
* (2018/12/07) Working, but not that well. Had to use 100% power and speed 5 to cut through relatively thin leather. Perhaps needs to be cleaned?

* (2018/12/01) NOT working. Needs a tube replacement, probably. It's going to be a while. It will not happen faster if you ask when it's going to be fixed. NOBODY KNOWS YET.

* There is thought to be a BOSS rotary attachment to assist with working with curved surfaces, but have yet to find it.
=== ''Youtube Channels'' ===
Following are a couple good YouTube Channels with lots of information on the software and machine

* If laser is having problems cutting, run simple diagnostic tests first BEFORE assuming and attempting lens alignment. The alignment document (linked below) shows how to do a 4 corner test. The first video (linked below) shows how to check if laser is firing straight down with a piece of clear acrylic.

* When using blue sided tape to test, be careful to not touch or smudge the mirrors and carefully clean with alcohol and q-tip mirors if they do get dirty. During pulse tests, you can try placing piece of aluminum foil sandwiched between two pieces of blue tape to prevent smoke/residue build up.
