Focus grip part of the lens

[scientist]

I'm looking for something to replace the default focus grip of the axisz module. Something bigger so when I twist to focus, my fingers arent so close to the laser (currently I get burned by the laser, and also dust easily gets into the lens because of the proximity of my fingers to the lens)

Where can I see a selection of alternative grips to choose from?

jayrob makes some awesome easy focus adapters. also flamingpyro makes custom ones.
mohrenburg makes super nice cheap 3/4 inch focus adapters

EDIT better?

Bennett, punctuation. It's invented for a god-damned reason.

Anyway, scientist, what he's trying to say here is:
Mohrenberg's work:

Jayrob, he makes a lot of stuff, scroll down for focus adapter and custom knobs:

Or Flaminpyro, also makes incredible amounts of stuff:

Thanks for the tips. Another question:

My original glass lens seems to have condensed water droplets in the area between the two lenses - should I get a new one or is there a way to fix this?

Never seen that before... how'd you manage that?

In short, quick-drying it might help (those tricks for drying wet electronics, like bowl of rice or silica gel). If not, new lens. Rayfoss has cheapest glass lenses I know of:

Ehh, sorry? You're making some weird posts lately...
Just to be sure, you do still machine those focus rings I linked here? There was some talk about you quitting that in favor of finishing your schooling (which is how it should be).
What's the situation?

stupid phone.......

I sell them now. I'm in class right now lol. Next week is my last class and i'm done with the school portion.

 

[Mohrenberg]

you can disassemble the lens and clean/dry each element. Just keep track of the order in which they go. It's a pain trying to figure it out if you don't.


I had planned to sell these lens for around $7ea....have yet to get stock of them yet.
