  • My 40W CO2 Laser (K40 Laser Engraver) has been a great addiction to my workshop. It has opened up a lot of possibilities for projects. Adding this rotary axis attachment will open up even more possibilities.

    Great video! One thing that may help you is to save your machine settings and then change the y steps for the rotary table. Then save it as a new file then you can switch back and forth and not have to change your files.

    I was toying with the rotary attachment but opted to get a new controller first so I could use lightburn... The k40 is a great piece of kit.. Thanks to your first video on for taking me down this rabbit hole lol... And now I see another rabbit hole 😁😁

    Great Video Mate. Good job on fitting the upgrade... It works very well and will open all types of doors for you. Thank you for sharing and take care.... 😎😎😎👍👍👍 You can use Bicycle inner tubes cut into strips for the runner rollers on the classes/bottles instead of elastic bands as it might run a little smoother. use a smaller inner tube from a racer or kids bike so it will be tight and run smoother... Just a thought mate...

      Thanks mate! Its definitely opened up a lot more possibilities with the laser now. Thats a great idea!!! Be far easier than fiddling with elastic bands all the time haha ❤️

    Hi Joe,
    Do you know if this rotary attachment can fit on any K40 machine?
    Im wanting to order a K40 machine however every seller/manufacturer I've messaged has said the machine wont be suitable and the K40 machine wont work with a rotary attachment.
    I can't seem to see much if any difference between the k40 machines and am sure it will work with minor modifications as show in your video.
    Is there anything else that needs to be done to the K40? do I need to upgrade the circuit board or anything to get it to work?
    or will it just work when plugged in?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Joe, a different subject. Can you get a 48 tooth or more for fine cuts on wood with the Evo 255 mitre saw. I am thinking of getting this saw but I will also want to cut wood with a fine cut. Not sure if the blade provided will give you a neat, fine finished cut. Regards John.

    • @AverageJoesJoinery
      @AverageJoesJoinery  4 года назад

      Hi John, there is a wood cutting blade that is 40 tooth. I havent used it personally but Ive heard it gives a clean cut. shop.evolutionpowertools.com/collections/blades-1

    • @AverageJoesJoinery
      @AverageJoesJoinery  3 года назад

      Only thing I could think of would be if the glass is slipping. Adding elastic bands can help to stop that

    another great project ! thanks ! how do you know you're at the right focus point ? how do you set it? thanks !

    • @AverageJoesJoinery
      @AverageJoesJoinery  4 года назад +1

      I set my focus from the base of the K40. I did test engravings at multiple heights working my way up to the focus. I don’t know if this is the best way of doing it but its worked for me.

    So - you had to raise the K40 and also cut a hole in the bottom of it, I have no means of doing that. So when I ordered my K40 I also ordered a supposed K40 rotary, and now I cannot use it.
    I will have a word with the supplier, who never mentions that you need to be a sheet metal worker to use it.
