One of the Glowforges biggest downside's is the inability to be able the clean the exhaust fan.
Using the technic shown in this video I made: https://youtu.be/d1Bk0Aw_b1g
You'll be able to remove, clean and reinstall your Glowforge Basic / Glowforge Plus exhaust fan with ease!
*Unfortunately this does NOT apply to Glowforge Pro Users*
For those that don't have a 3D printer, here is where you can buy the Glowforge Exhaust Screw Guides. https://etsy.me/3iHSA43
Please watch the youtube video above in full before attempting this.
Disclaimer: The technique used to remove and reinstall the exsaught fan is NOT Glowforge approved. I take no liability for your actions and you proceed at your own risk.
