Is lumenlab forum dead?

[victor-eyd]

Has anyone been successful in accessing lumenlab's forums?

I've been using google chrome on my pc and keep getting a blank screen that keeps refreshing for the last two months. Tried other browsers on other pcs and getting the same results.

It's starting to load for me, then I got a Content Encoding Error.

This is really bad... I have my full HD projector 99% complete, i just need some assistance with some focusing issues and I'll be done... PLEASE DON'T LEAVE LUMENLAB!

Looks like the forums are dead otherwise their would be maintenance page up. Could be for a lot of reasons. Most forums close due to the amount of maintenance required.

I don't think Lumenlabs would have an issue with maintenance but I agree to a certain extent that forums are spammed which creates a lot of work for moderators. LumenArc Forums closed as a result of spam. Anyone interested to participate, they are looking for moderators and to re-open.

I think the forums are down due to that the company seem to be out of business. Lumenlab had quite many prepaid orders that were never delivered and people started asking their money back in the CNC forums..And when their kickstarter project was shut down they seemed to close the forum as well.

There was a lot of knowledge accumulated in the Lumenlab forum (probably the most extensive resource on DIY projectors out there), I really hope someone backed up everything before this happened.
I'd be interested if someone knew where everything is stored.

Looks like LL is no more or limping on just barely. I know they were having lots of problems filling orders, Brain got sick and things just went downhill. I am still here, store should be up soon and parts are available.

What do you need help with? Maybe I can answer for you.

I've made an attempt to revive the forum with my own hosting - didn't get a response from BC regarding permission but I figure he probably has more important things he needs to take care of.

Are any of you looking for a Lumenlab projector? I have one that I almost finished before I got sidetracked on another project. It may need a new 15" monitor to work properly. Other than that, I believe everything else works. It's made of bubinga and birch and the ends are dovetailed. I'm willing to give it to or swap with someone who can pick it up in SE Wisconsin/Chicago area (too heavy to ship). I can send pictures by request.

 

[TESCORP]

Green Heron, I would like to see it I am in Illinois so maybe a pick up? any pics I can see? send me an email.

I am guessing the Lumenlab forums are dead for good now. All DIYer's are welcome at my site.

I found a way to access some of the content, thanks to the wayback machine.

They focused on CNC's and forgot a bit about the initial idea… I finished my projector using some of their parts, after like 10 years I was trying to look at those pictures again… sad! I hope they are ok!
