Beam Table Hardware?

[KGB]

Im putting together a projector w/ beamtable but I'm wondering if anyone here can recommend me places to look. I have been to OSLS but they don't have all that much.

This is the effect I am trying to get. but instead of a beamslpitter on the GM-20 I would use a FS mirror. Basically turning 1 beam into 3 and launching them into the room.


Thanks,

you might want to visit www.microlaserlabs.com Those guys have everything and if you need something special they can make it for you.

I think I've heard about those guys
Basically I want to find the parts to make the tower..I dont see that on your site

[Laserman532]

you will need three of these http://www.microlaserlabs.com/ninety...ount-p-57.html

and three of these http://www.microlaserlabs.com/beam-s...ount-p-83.html

and a post height of your choosing depending how high you want to go. http://www.microlaserlabs.com/post-p-71.html

and of course your beam splitter glass, all i have is front surface mirrors.

Thanks, I had some more questions for you, check your inbox

the final table will have 3 or 4 towers so expect a nice order coming up

it is best you tell me EXACTLY what you want to do and I would put together a list better than the one above, draw it and email it to me or sketch it or something like that.

Hey Pat... with all of the "old skoool beam tables revisited" as of late, show us, tell us, make us - some turret style stuff.

Speaking for myself, i'd love to see how they are done proper. Being fairly new in the grand scheme of things, i've only seen blurry pics of proper turrets and actuators.

Please, sir

Same here, all I have had to go off of were blurry pics and some youtube videos.

the proper way was with tubes with holes in them allowing for full 360 degree (expensive and mechanically complicated) without any blockage but most people shoot in one direction so the 90 degree mounts are great for that. For crude adjustments you use the links I provided KGB for precise targeting you need to add a MM-1 or something like that. Back in the day we could split a beam in to 2's and 4's AND MORE and still impress, but if you do that now. its wimpy...meh...im a capitalist....if there is a market...im in.

So, last night I got all the pieces from Pat(laserMan532) just need to figure out how this goes together now

Pat, Do you have any pics of what I'm trying to build, I just cant see it.
