Upgrading the K40 laser with a chiller (ice maker), a manually adjustable bed, a roll around cart, the Monport GRBL controller, and some lightburn software. Lets see if we can turn this into a rampaging beast!

What are you using there connected in the front for air assist? Air regulator of some type?

Thanks for sharing, I have the same K40 and minority board but have not been able to connect to my laser. It is showing ready in light burn but no movement at all. I will go my limit switches again to see if they are done properly as I am getting an alarm 9 msg. Thanks again

You mention adding the chiller, but I don't see it in this or your other videos. Did you do a video on that somewhere?

Michaelcouey1383, I did not do a video. The chiller setup is so simple, i thought just a mention would be enough. In a nutshell, its a cheapo portable icemaker (amazon i think). The Ice drops about every 6 mins for large cones, so i simply turn on the ice maker and laser and let it cycle for about a half hour prior to using. IF you go this same route. You MUST keep an eye out for sweating of the lines and laser tube prior to firing the laser. One other MUST do's is the Distilled Water (no brainer) but that was for the folks that didn't know. Let me know if there is something specific I can talk to you. Happy to share the knowledge if i have it...

@@MakallWorkshop the reason I asked about it is because I have an ice maker that we use for our RV in the summer. Short of coiling the tubing and sticking it inside the ice compartment to pass-thru...I don't understand how you're hooking up a icemaker to the water recirculation line. Maybe you're ice maker is different than mine. That's why I clicked your video was to see the process, in case I needed something different.

michaelcouey1383, I will link the icemaker i got from amazon, its not to terrible when compared to a real laser chiller. www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZYJ8CRX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 I have the pump stuck to the floor of the ice maker basin. Fill to the line with DI water. I have my pump hose and my return hose both going to the ice maker basin. ice water goes up to the laser via the pump and hot water or return water goes back into the basin to be chilled by the ice that is being made. To achieve this simply remove the basket that catches the ice and let the ice fall into the basin. I plugged the pump and chiller into the laser, so when i turn on laser both turn on. I simply let it cycle for about a half hour while i prep my laser file. Then start engraving or cutting.
