Excellent updates as always. Loving this thread. Been a few times now I've had to do a double take to ascertain if it was your Falcon or a shot from the movies.
The laser cutter. Whenever I had issues with the cutting, first things I'd always check; how clean the base grid work is, reflections from it could also cause small glitches. Does the one you use have a honeycomb grid or inverted 90º right angle base? Laser focus alignment was always a big cause of cutting / etching issues too. Finally, if those two checked out, it was usually time to clean the mirrors reflecting the beam.
I'm assuming the cutting power / speed is the usual values you've always used? And it's the same material? (I've seen the post so pretty sure it is).
Keep up the great work and the updates. They make my day.
