Neje is teasing out a picture about two new modules they are releasing.  One is a dual diode E40 module that is basically the same as my A40640 but with a built in air assist and possibly better cooling.  The other is a E80 quad diode module that should be twice as powerful as the A40640 module.  Both appear to be direct competitors to the new Atomstack modules of the same power.

On an aside, Neje has too many modules, they really need to standardize on one form factor and probably should phase out there weaker modules as well.

The dust monitor I picked up a while back worked well for a week or two but soon stopped being able to measure any but the strongest levels of dust.  I decided to order a new module from AlliExpress, thinking it was the most likely the part that failed.  I just got the new module in the mail today and it looked like this!  Fortunately the module inside appears to be just fine, although I don't know how it survived.  I will try to put it in this weekend and see if it works.

I stumbled onto the term mill/turn to indicate a mill with a rotary axis attached to it.  This may help in trying to dig up new tools, sometimes knowing the right terms helps.

I found an older copy of CNC Wrapper posted by the original author on a forum. The new version has been taken down but now we can experiment with the older version.

I have been running some experiments on air filters, I will try to get a writeup done in a few days.
