    Wow that is more rare of a failure. If the inside of the magnet is "bulged" towards the plasma tube...The laser was put away in storage (or shipped by airfreight) with some residual water in it and it froze, expanded and split. I am confused as to how you can see the split on the inside of the magnet bore by removing the HR mirror tho
