    I was going to use plastic bolts to detract from Thermal shortage.

    Yeah, that'll do it, it wouldn't have worked for me though as my module base is only 3/16" thick, not thick enough for sufficient threads for plastic screws.

    There are loads of alternative ways of doing this, I've already made a copper triple block and ordered some of Edison's knife mirror mounts for my next project, maybe my 5 Watt pointer?

    ^^^^



    Looks awesome!! I'm highly jealous.. I wish I'd hit even 1W with mine by adding 445.. alas my little single-diode module only brought me up to a little over 700mW of white after optics, conservatively set to preserve the white balance. If I would have added a dual blue setup like yours it would have killed my red and green completely. As it is right now the color balance on mine is actually pretty well perfect for the first time since I built it.. Never again will 473nm find it's way into my projector.. unless it's combined with 445.

    Yeah, me too.

    What I need to try now is a medialase DAC, I reckon she's got more up her sleeve.

    Hey Doc

    I'm seriously F#ucking jellos. Please don't take that to 53 degrees or I'll never be asked back with my gear.

    I'm sure you will pal and as far as I'm aware; we are the only two operators that Dave the production manager trusts, if you read the venue's T&Cs it clearly says "No lasers"

    How did that lead I passed you work out?
