I'm still in the process of assembling my first projector and I'm using 30K ebay scanners, using a 445, one of jayrob's lens that I originally used for a 405 pointer mounted into an axis module and into a modwerx aluminum heatsinc, and dichros and mounts from LSP. The two problems I'm running...

I'm in the process of building an RGB show and so far I've picked up selective reflecting mirrors from olike along with lens holders however I'm not thrilled with the size and the complete lack of adjustment. I'd really appreciate anyone who could point me towards a good reliable source for a...

Ok, to be fair, I did search, unfortunately, I'm not finding an answer in language I'm understanding or I'm missing some key piece of information I need to process the answers. I just got 3 Flexmod P3's in from drlava, I'm in the process of setting up the first one, I'll be using all 3 in an...

I just got my galvo - a 33Kpps from china, came with the ilda breakout board and the power supply for the galvo. I'm in the process of assembling my diodes that I intend to use for the RG and V, question here is does anyone have a good source for optics such as the combining blocks in order to...

The part of the diode that has to be in contact with the heatsinc is the base, correct? or does the can really have any effect on the thermal dissapation properties?

I'm trying an experiment with the other diode I found in the 8x LG blu-ray sled, it has three pins horizontally and an incredibly small optic window, I'd guess it's about 3mm and I was foolish enough to power it on at 5ma at 4v and pointing it at a dark surface it produced a red dot that...

I'm getting a coherent Fiber module, 40w part # 1057814 808nm at 40W http://www.coherent.com/downloads/FAP800series_DSFinal.pdf I'm curious if anyone has any experience with these and making burning lasers from them. I'm trying to put together a micro soldering device and I hope this is going...

I've been reading over at photolexicon for a bit, and I'm still not clear on a lot of things on what kind of lasers and drivers you need to do a standard RGB unit with blanking. Do you need an "analog" laser like the expensive ones on ebay or would regular high output (up to 300mw) modules work...

I have a choice right now to either get a 780nm 1W laser diode or a 860nm 1W diode with TEC cooling on it. Which would provide the most burning power from a distance of 1-2 feet with proper optics? If my primary goal is burning/cutting white twine. Any recommendations which wavelength would...

Is it possible to convert the 80w co2 laser engraver I have to have a fiber optic delivery system instead? I absolutely hate the whole mirror system that it currently configured with, it's chinese built, so it doesn't have the best delivery system or components. So I'm trying to improve the...

I just started assembling diy lasers, completed a PHR BR laser with LarryDFW's lens, worked well but not quite what I wanted to achieve. What I'm looking to do is make a high powered diode based laser to mount into a gantry that I built that would be capable of cutting 1/8" WHITE acrylic into...
