I got the mini k40 (would not do that again). It works great, but I didn't know it at the time that I would be getting a weaker laser. I was about a week too late learning about tube sizes being the better way to know the true wattage.
I have done a series of upgrades and then re-dos. So hopefully you can learn a few things from all my tinkering.
Analog Milliamp Meter
I bought this meter. I followed this link for the install.
Exhaust
I initially went with an inline 3" bilge pump that had a corresponding 3d printed exhaust mount. It was ok, but in the end I just wasn't good enough when I started cutting more leather/wood.
So I went a little overboard, but I am glad I did. I went with this blower instead. I made my own 3D printed mount for it. I printed 2 adapters for the blower to fit 4" ducting and then routed it up and outside my garage.
I also removed the small internal duct thing prior to installing the new exhaust. it gives me a little more cutting room as well.
Air Assist
I went with the Light to Object head and bought a new lens to fit it.
Drag Chain
I bought a 10x10 drag chain off amazon. I had originally printed one, it was ok, but I recently switched up the mounting of the drag chain to run along the X gantry which gave me a little more room to cut.
Laser Aim Assist
I made a mash of 2 different thingverse designs to hold 2 red line lasers and where they intersect is my laser beam. It works well, I made it this way originally when I had an adjustable table. Honestly, now I should switch back to a single red dot, but I am too lazy. The two lines will sometimes move on me so I end up having to do a test fire every so often to ensure they are lined up properly.
Spring Loaded Adjustable Bed
I followed this guide
Hopefully this helps you out a bit.
Your link isn't to Hurricane but that fan is as rated? I notice my fan I have in my cart says 440cfm and 50db of noise (no idea what this 4-5in internal fan is in either spec). My fan in my cart - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077492C4C/
Sure, here's a 6" Vivosun blower for $55. Here's one with a carbon filter and speed controller included for $119. There are higher quality blowers available, but these ones are pretty good for the price point.
Couple things you will want...
This is the fan I use, I just used 6 inch ducting out to a dryer vent. https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Inline-Blower-Ventilation-Certified/dp/B077492C4C/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1539720436&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=vivosun+6+inch+fan&psc=1
And the brew bag is very heavy, I use these with a bicycle hook to hoist the bag.

I have had a couple succesful runs with the system, all in all it is worth it since I live in NorthEast Pennsylvania where it gets really cold outside during the winter. No more brewing outdoors. I also use a Gigawort from Northern Brewer (I know the hate) to make small batches as my test system.
