#k40 #laser electronics enclosure from Acrylic, drawn with @FreeCAD ; Aluminium business cards with black paint test - someone asked me to try this / make them some shiny business cards.

Friday is laser day. Continued #k40 #Lasercutter improvement: moved the webcam, istalled a USB isolator (to prevent EMI USB issues, way better now), tensioned the X axis belt so 150mm/s works and made some nice things.

Did some laz0ring today: boxes/drawers to hold all the spices #k40 #Lasercutting #meerk40t

Finally got around to bring up my #k40 #laser after 2 years of procastination. The power switch and emergency stop switch contacts failed at <10 cycles. Looks like they do not like to switch the input caps of the ~1kW SMPS for my peltier cooler.

If you have a #k40 or other #laser engraver/cutter, you might like this website I made that helps you create designs (totally free). I add tools to it every now and then, and may also add other #cad #maker tools for #3dprinting or #cnc devices in the future. Right now, if you can use SVGs, you might find this useful. https://calarnexa.com/

Here's a cool tree heart charm thing I laser cut for my wife. Not bad for a first cut, but I designed the branches too small and they got charred. #lasercutting #k40 #tree #charm
