LASER CUTTER ENABLED MODULE or LVL1 versus The Smoke Monster
The LVL1 Hackerspace has had the great fortune of receiving a grant to purchase, among other things, a large format laser cutter.
But with a laser cutter comes the responsibility of handling the fumes (The Smoke Monster). The first method was to vent.
But fumes vented to the outside, still smell funny. And even though LVL1 is located near a place that turns pigs into wonderful breakfast meats, there were a few complaints. LVL1 dutifully upgraded the system with a larger capacity filter and all went well.
