That is one hell of a heat sinc. I fired it up today. The heatsink doesn't even get warm. It cuts thin cardstock great! How can I get focus further away from the projector. The way it is now I fear the smoke will soon cloud the lens. Plus the work will be a bit further away in some cases. This thing is BADASS. I do not even dare fire without the goggles on . I can free cut with the head too.

I'm breathing a sigh of relief now that it is
working.

To increase the focal distance, remove the
"focus ring" from the lens and thread it in
with a wide blade screwdriver until it reaches
the desired distance. It sounds like it might
be necessary to add a second fan to blow
the smoke away.

Heres pic of the unbox. I fired this up and adjusted the focus... this will write into wood in real time speed. I simply held the head in my hand and burned my signature in hard wood. Im going to experiment some more and make more pictures.
