K40 Mirror Shims

prusaprinters

<p>I've finally got round to aligning the mirrors in my K40 laser cutter. Using the <a href="https://k40laser.se/lens-mirrors/mirror-alignment-the-ultimate-guide/">mirror alignment guide</a> on k40laser.se, I needed to raise mirror 2 a little to get the alignment perfect. I tried using washers, but that was just too awkward for my fat fingers, so I designed and printed these shims instead.</p> <p>There's a range of shims, from 2.0mm to 4.0mm in 0.5mm increments, which I found was enough range for me.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Elegoo Mars</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.05mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>100%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> N/A Resin <p>N/A</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>I used the standard settings in CHITUBOX.

If you want the Fusion files to modify them and make other heights, let me know.</p> </p></p> Category: Parts
