This time around I did not use LightBurn, but when I do I use simple macros to switch between CNC mode and laser mode (discussed here)
Yep, the shroud is the orange plexi cover, and it has magnets on the back. Mine also was not setting very easily in the original attachment thing that shipped with the laser (I could not use it anyway since it’s intended to be used with the stock router mount), I printed a custom bracket/arm with magnets, and it fits much better (enlarge the two holes slightly, and it should snap on much more easily)
