Updates to the Configuration:

Alpha & Beta steps/mm

• was = 315.5
• should = 157.575. Otherwise, files cut at 2x their size

*Laser PWM setting for better engraving.

The PWM period should be 200us for good engraving.

laser_module_pwm_period                      200              # this sets the pwm frequency as the period in microseconds

*These changes are not in the configuration file below:

• driving the steppers 1/32 really quiets down the machine and makes it seem a lot smoother.
