Paging the @DoESLiverpool/laser-maintenance team so they can have a look into it (and/or advise)

I'm booked in for next week, just wondering if anyone has had (or will have) a chance to look at this? Appreciate you're all busy and can delay booking but don't wanna trek over from Birkenhead if it's not working.
Also, would recalibrating Tony be something a user could do? Is it something that could be taught/explained on a maker's night?
Happy to help in the future, if I can
Cheers
Ed

I was able to adjust Tony last night and it is back in square now.

I did spot some cracks in one of the mechanical couplings in the drive mechanism which could explain why this has been slipping out of alignment recently. I will take some measurements on Saturday, so that I can identify a replacement for this coupling.

I will leave this issue open for this additional diagnostics.

Was in on the 19th December and Tony was out again. Tried the other machine and it was ALSO not cutting square. (Sorry thought I'd taken a pic but can't find it).
Is no one else having issues, or noticed this with these machines?? Surely it's not just me?!
