The stepper control board for instnce in ours has no CPLD, and
simply has a couple buffers controlled straight from the LPT
(referrring to Adam's previous description of his stepper
controller).

<div dir="ltr">Today my Chinese friend Aqua talked
on the phone with someone who works for the
manufacturer of our laser cutter. She asked
about the cost of the replacement set of PCBs
for our laser, including shipping to
Noisebridge. She said:<br>
"Can you confirm the model number you want?<br>
They said they don't have MLE-40.<br>
Or picture can work also." <br>
<br>
So, can someone please take some (small sized)
photos of the laser cutter, with identifying
info? Please send this here soon, and I'll
forward to Aqua. <br>
<br>
Thanks, <br>
Mitch. <br>

<div dir="ltr">So, let's consolidate. Someone
please confirm total cost of the laser
replacement board + let's add Mitch's costs
into the total. This has been a investment
that needs to be resolved and usable. :)
Let's do-ocratically raise the money and get
it done. Please add any additonal costs
needed that aren't listed below. I've updated
the Laser Cutter Repair wiki page for donation
info.
