Laser Cutter Re-homing

Opened this issue · 0 comments

So the laser cutter has been moved to its permanent home.
We are currently waiting on the arrival of the fume extractor, although its home has been cleared and prepared.
I contacted the electricians and got a quote of ~$500 to do the labor of switching out the breaker.

I did not tell them to come yet because I'm not sure of the whole process of how that works.
Also we need to acquire and build an extension cord to reach to the current location of the laser cutter.
From my research because of the distance we will need 6 gauge wire, about $200 feet of it.
I got price quotes from Granger, and it will be around $300 give or take for what we need, but they are out of it, and its not on back order. So we need to source the wire.
It is referred to as "building wire" and again AWG 6 or equivalent.
