Laserscript user forum

I've finally got fed up with the mirror mounts on my 3040.
Currently alignment is a two day chore with no guarantee of success, just a slow incremental drift towards slightly better.

Has anyone tried fitting more robust and more easily adjustable mirror mounts to any of the laser script machines ?

Something like these for example...

Also, while I'm at it, any tips for flattening the honeycomb bed ?
I think mine may have moles.

I hot glue gunned the honeycomb bed to the aluminium base on my LS3020. Works for me

As for the mirror mounts, once aligned, should stay solid! You could always buy some thumbscrews to replace the 3 corner bolts.

A few guys have modded the existing mirrors with thumb screws and spring mounts.
Here is a picture of the mods I did to mine,

I have seen a better job by someone else on this forum since doing this though so doing some searching might help.

I have not had to adjust my mirrors for some time now. so it works a treat.

Make sure your engraver is on a firm surface that doesn't move, the frames are just thin sheet metal and if its not set even or is moved all the time it could affect the mirror alignment.
