Need help! I have a used laser engraver that was aligned when we bought it. After the move, we broke the tube and had to replace it. Now I've been working on the alignment.
When I get the beam aligned from the 1st to 2nd mirrors, the beam hits the side of the mirror on the holder. I'm attaching a drawing. My brain tells me that the 2nd mirror housing is too far to the right. Of course, my brain is about ready to give up at this point. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. These are things I thought it could be:
1. 1st mirror adjustment
2. Tube level
3. There is an optic between the tube and the 1st mirror. Would that do anything?
I don't know if this is attaching correctly, but I'm trying to add a drawing.
