The latest update is that the Circuit Board Medics tried to screw me (IMHO) so I told them to send me back everything. Two days later they call me up (to their credit, they called both days but I didn't bother to pick up the phone), and changed their tune. 9 So, at the moment, they're gonna send me back my original CCU and a rebuilt MCU for $165 (plus my original $$20 or so to ship it to them). In the end, it was a waste of time and money to go to the Circuit Board Medics because for $191 + about 10% tax I could have gotten a brand new MCU board locally in 1 day. Lesson learned. But anyway, I'll let you know what happens when the board arrives and I put it in the washing machine. (The women folk are on my case.) |

Anyway, after telling the Circuit Board Medics to just send me everything back, they decided to change their pricing back to what they had originally told me. They tried to talk me into a 40 dollar shipping but I refused, since I was not happy with them changing their prices on me. To be fair, they think they didn't change their price. I did. They originally told me that it's OK if the board is burnt, as long as it didn't have 'water damage'. I offered to send them a picture beforehand, but they said they didn't need that. Then, when they got the board, they tried to tell me they couldn't use the core board, and at that point, they wanted to charge me an additional hundred dollars. That would have made the rebuilt replacement MORE expensive than a new board (which is $191 at the local appliance shop). I told them to send me everything back, and then they called me up and changed their story back to what it originally was. We'll see how this turns out, but, I can't really recommend them at this point. In hindsight, the right answer would have been to just pick up a NEW board for about $200 locally instead of their rebuild for $165 + $20 shipping. |
| N_Cook <diverse@tcp.co.uk>: May 26 02:56PM +0100 I was in a craft shop today and one of these was being demonstrated www.cricut.com I got the demonstrator to try it out on 0.05mm thick copper foil. It worked very well on parallel lines 0.3mm spacing and letters where the vertical body of letters wer of qwerty were 2mm high and extra curveyness of the "fun" script cut out and came through perfectly well. It would have gone smaller I'm sure but that was the minimum she could go to on her tablet and typeface. She was so impressed she emailed a pic the engineering department of that company. Machine is roller feed of flat sheet. Requires firm , more than stick-it note, bonding of the foil to a backing or the foil will tear. The cutter was not new, a few months of about 22 hours a day use, often left running overnight for multiple outputs, like 3D printer operation. |
