I have thought about this mod for a long time and I am rewiring the control panel on the new laser, so now is the time.
The problem: some old phart forgets to turn the Air Assist on [or off] in the layers and then starts cutting/engraving a file- I have an indicator light on my panel that shows if Air Assist is on or off and slap my forehead yet again...
My solution- add two switches by the indicator light- one turns Air Assist on if it is off, and one turns it off if it is on.
Easy peezy lemon squeezy:
