Ready to upgrade from my Modified K40... Thinking of this Monport 60W

I thought this post would be better served in my Monport thread, than my double line problem thread, which has been solved. Thank you to many, but probably mostly @jkwilborn … who was steadfast in his insistence that it was a hardware problem, and managed to push me through my stubbornness).

Well, I grabbed the Sharpie Marker and the 2" Hole Saw and got the Milliamp Meter mounted today. Haven’t wired it yet, but I pre-ran some wire the last time I had those goofy grey wire chases open (they’re a pain to get off). So it’s just some clipping and crimping tomorrow, to get things finished.

I also designed and 3D printed an angled doo-flatchie thing… to hold my wireless touch pad anywhere I want (notice the two massive magnets built in - it can be placed anywhere on the steel chassis).

I think it will go here:

I was just going to set it on top of the laser chassis… but I have premonitions of going to Left-Click and accidentally depressing the Stop button with my wrist. So I think it best to stick it in front of the control panel instead. :grin:
