Not complicated to install and made a big difference in quality of product being produced!

not happy with in 10min to 20 min it over heats and knocks itself of

The media could not be loaded.  Easy to set up just attach the air house to the unit and laser plug in and turn on. It has an airflow speed/power control that is adjustable. Works great and helps the laser make clean clear cuts.

This optional accessory should really be bundled with the machine or even better, already assembled, in my opinion - I would have happily paid extra for it initially! It makes a HUGE difference in results when cutting wood. I didn't purchase it until almost a year after I got my M1, which was fine, since I didn't start working with wood until several months after I purchased the M1. Installation wasn't fun, but if you follow the instructions TO THE TEE you will have no issues. I would also recommend watching at least one YouTube installation video so that you can see ALL of the steps before you start and prevent from making any silly mistakes like I did (I mistakenly applied one of the little white holders for the black tubing upside down and it took quite a bit of force to rip it off and put it back on right side up). I am glad I bought it!

This simple little fish tank air compressor improved my wood laser cuts and engravings 10x. I was constantly getting red/orange scorch marks on the face of my wood next to any cuts through the wood. I thought the riser base kit would be the key because it has the honeycomb grill. That helped a little, but this air kit fixed all my issues. No more overburns or scorched edges. yes it seems overpriced for what you get, but it is well designed and the magnetic nozzle is pretty ingenious. Definitely a must buy if you have the M1 and cut wood.
