    405nm ultrafire L2 build

    Hi all, my first build is done, and I am quite happy. I used a 6x blue ray diode, rckstr microdrive, ultrafire L2 host, custom machined heatsink powered by 2 Li-ion cr123a rechargeable. I'm getting a bit of a lens flare even when focused correctly, perhaps it's because of the acrylic lens, I...

    Feeler: basic build kits

    Hello all, I recently finished machining a heat sink for my first build (a 200mW 405nm 6x build) and I rather enjoyed it. I have seen a variety of kits and heatsinks go on sale in the forums here for a variety of prices, so I decided to send out a feeler and see what people think. I realize...

    Variable power soldering iron

    American Science & Surplus : Hobby Tools While looking myself, I've found that the seemingly hardware-store-standard 40W soldering iron has been the bane of my existence. I've been on the lookout for a low power or variable power soldering iron, those diodes don't get like getting too toasty...

    Radiant Shades safetey goggles

    Hi all, I've got a question for all those that wish to answer. I ordered some radiant shades safety goggles: RadiantShades for Blue and Green Lasers as a preemptive safety measure for my first laser build (a 404nm BR ~200mw from a 6x diode, build in progress). As you can see the wavelength...

    First laser build, advice welcome

    Hello all, I'm looking to construct my first laser build. I'm new here (obviously) and I've done quite a bit of looking around on the site to see what other people are doing. I was thinking I would start my building career with a 405nm laser in the 100mw range. It seems like a reasonable place...
