What I mean is, any other forums on using/fixing/modding the Glowforge that is not run by Glowforge itself, like this forum? Nothing like the ol’ “why would you want to do that?” that I get there. Mine is past warranty and I need to fix things.  
Thanks!

There used to be a Slack group but that never seemed to garner much attention. Plenty of GF-oriented FB groups but they tend to be populated by folks that don’t seem to have an aptitude for hacking HW.

My aptitude is more mechanical than electronic but I’d still like to have seen OpenGlow succeed. Completely understand why you need to stop the development though.
