Maybe Mike McKensie can address this on-forum. He's a member here. Is he not your rep?

Well, it's here, up and running AND PAID FOR. No lease, no installments etc, good or bad, I own it. The Epilog EXT is an awesome machine, beautiful output.
Rodne is probably right and you would probably be well served with something like an Epilog Helix 18x24 or smaller in 40 watt or so.
I love the bigger table, just my preference. The EXT is a massive machine, 480 lbs, 50" wide and 30" deep outside dimensions. The space requirement is more for sure and you need a good level floor or reasonably level to start from. (our machine has levelers but a fairly level floor helps and makes it easier to get it correct) If you decide on one of these, better have some strong people on hand to get it situated.
I feel comfortable with MY choice and I spent MY money, so that's what you have to do. I have an existing business base for my machine and that helps when it comes to spending money.
Again, good luck with your purchase if you decide to do so. :-)

Hi again... The problem is mostly "wiggles" in the horizontal vector cut lines above 5% or 6% speed. I don't know if the X-660 has a differnt size table or components than the X-600. It is a very frustrating problem, as I cannot use the speed that the machine is capable of without producing poor quality parts.
I haven't met Mike McKensie; My rep is (or was) Chris Adams who I think worked out of Seattle.

It sounds like your situation is unique to your machine. Your profile indicates that your ULS is a X-660. One of ours is a X-600. For whatever it's worth, we have no such issues on our X-600 or our Versalaser.

BTW, his "tech" is Treavor. Treavor is very, very good. I'll put you in touch with one or both.
