I would personally avoid shooting ducks with that But its your prerogative... Awesome host though! Now I should use a Wii remote...

I think you guys are making this too difficult for HerrSticks. He sounds like he wants to support our hobby and he wants a laser that can be used both for star pointing and for some light burning. I recommend a 200 mw green as it does both of these and is relatively safer than a 1000mw 445nm...

Here are some 10x blu-ray drives that cost $119.99 with the promo code EMCYTZR26 Honestly, I haven't been on the forums in a while, so I have no idea whether this is a good deal, or even if these are good laser-making-drives. I just thought I'd show you guys just in case. Oh yea, act FAST...

I was wondering if they could be lowered below 250ma, but I guess not. Either way, that is very tempting... Do they by any chance fit inside the back end of an aixiz module?

I can builld them for you. Do you want pots on them? or do you want to use your own? How much will you pay?

Just did an ebay shipping calculator for you. If it is 3-4 pounds it comes out to $12.95 If it is 5 pounds or more it jumps to $27.95 Im guessing it is at least 5 pounds so i is probably cheaper to buy it locally... :cryyy:

I applogize Flamin, I didn't take into account that you were making a complex build that involved turning parts. All we had to base our comments off of was Greg's price quote. If you are putting a high quality build together then there is no doubt in my mind that your quote was fair. I do build...

Very true, I take back my description as "rediculous". A more fair statement would be that I think people would be willing to make one for less. Thanks for pointing that out abadcaffeinetrip

The 200mw should be the best solution if you want to cover the most area in a given amount of time. If you are only looking to tagret a pinpoint though, someone could easily build you a 5mw pointer. I would offer to build it, but unlike most forum members, I don't have the parts in hand so it...

What is the output current on the O-like drivers?

Well you could probably light a leaf or some kindling on fire at close range with just 200mw. But the other stuff... not likely

Re: Diode Press Tools &nbsp;>>>SOLD<<< Thanks! And btw, completely unrelated, why won't my profile pic show up? I'm new...

Re: Diode Press Tools &nbsp;>>>SOLD<<< Fair enough, I will figure it out. Getting the depth of the mounting hole isn't so easy with calipers though, but I can get an approximate value.

Re: Diode Press Tools &nbsp;>>>SOLD<<< True, but the critical measurements are the depth of the end that pushes the diode farther than flush and the screw threading. Althuogh If I do have the die for the screw thread it will be easy enough to figure out...
