Never mind, I just got it open :yh:

Hey, quick question. I just got 4 of the alternate versions of this host that you were talking about, all identical, everything looks right, but I can't get the front end to come off of any of them. Did you encounter this problem? Or am I doing something wrong?

Just got the alternate version if this host that you were talking about, I have 4 of them, and I can't get the front end of any of them to unscrew. Did you have a similar issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

I know, ima buy components for a phr and an lpc build. Gonna get me a red laser and a blu ray laser. Should be fun. :yh:

Sounds really cool. I'll definitely look into attending that.

I looked in the psu actually because research showed that as the most likely place to find one, unfortunately, it used a larger regulator. Darn, oh well, I had a series of unfortunate events actually where my friend, who had two scrapped xbox360s brought over their sleds, at which point I...

Ah very cool. :yh:

Wow, much appreciated, Im honored to contribute useful information :yh: I just hope it actually gets read by newcomers who need to learn how to really take full advantage of this site and make it work as smoothly as possible, otherwise its not very useful. Ah, and Memphis :yh: and yourself?

Just curious, can it burn anything?? :eg:

Re: $16 DIY 200mW 650nm [Pic Heavy] Glad u have this linked :yh: I definitely think I'm going to try this build. I've been intending to build a blue laser, but I just hit a big snag, but whn I saw this I was just like cheap powerful laser in a cool host! :drool: must build. Glad you had this...

Thanks for the positive feedback Jerry I'm just hoping maybe some newcomers will see this and avoid the trouble that so many other noobs cause/find themselves in. :yh: I know I asked my first few questions on here yesterday, after massive amounts of research, and got exactly the answers I...

If you are new to this forum, and perhaps new to lasers entirely (like myself) and you are extremely excited about building your first laser, YOU ARE IN GOOD HANDS. :yh: The veterans, admins, and even experienced forum members are all wonderful people who will not hesitate to help you. In time...

Where did you get them for $.20??

I may have most of these, but I will have to go buy the lm317 regulator still. But thanks, I should have most of those components lying around my house.

Thanks djayz, good to see a parts list on here, gonna look for parts locally first then see if I will have to search elsewhere.

And again, I feel this has saved my eyes. Definitely planning on a few burning tricks and other planned reflections, so thanks a ton, I'll sell some stuff and get myself a pair of goggles I guess, any specific pair you would recommend? I have looked at a $40 pair of eagle laser goggles, but if...

Awesome, thanks a ton. This should spell out the last few steps to producing my first laser pointer, much appreciated. Ok, now my really noobish question, I know it is not recomended to view lasers in general without special laser goggles, but everything I've read about goggles and their...

I think the coolest thing about this page is that now I can use my spare 9v wall wart as my power supply and save my 12v one for other things. That should work as a supply right?
