445 Fever...Catch it!

[dsli_jon]

Hey Kats -

ok, so just so as-to not be 'left-out' of posting SOMEthing in this forum besides cool 'NASA' pix... I was thinking that either of these two items:

(have several of them, various-sizes...) and/or:

FS mirror stock, ~1/8" th. x 1" x ~6.25" (ignore the 4" x 4"s...)

... might-be of some interest to 'ya'll' doing your 445-harvest / collimation projects - particularly for those trying to do multi-diode-combo efforts, to get x-Watts into one beam... clearly, the 'u-channels' will make for a nice, self-heat-sinking base upon-which to-build such efforts, and I am thinking those 'narrow strip' first-surface mirrors might be helpful, say, @ ~45˚ to start channelling the beams down into an optical-stage...

Just a shameless effort to plug some 'goodies' FS, that may / may not be helpful...

peace...

And why aren't you trying to make a multiWatt blue?

..cuz I awready gotz one:





... actually, there isn't one of the Casios available w/in 20 miles of here, right now anyway, and besides, I'm really slammed with higher-priority werk... I need to get off this Mac and down to the shoerp...
