A little about me

Hello all,

I have an older K-40 I bought from Ebay a long time ago. I proceeded to updating it with many items from LightObject such as their R5 controller, air pump, a chiller, the 45 watt special tube (1000mm) and the extended tube cover and a honeycomb bed. I added a relay for the air pump to turn on and added some additional lighting to see. I built a custom z axis lift for the table. I changed the extraction fan to a bottom feed and removed the stock air vent system and finally added wifi. It's been very reliable.

I've been thinking about making a major upgrade to increase the bed size in a way that nobody that I've never seen done. If It works out I'll share my build.

I've also been working with 3D printers for three years. Like the K-40, it's a tinkers toy. Seems there is never enough time, money and space in life. I'm looking forward to helping others when I can.

That's it.
