I thought I'd share a couple pics of my latest- a pair of mini RGY scanners.
I saw these old grocery store scanners and thought the cases would be perfect for what I wanted. They are, of course, "laser scanners" so why not?
I put some more pics with comments in an album here:

They are getting pretty near completion, so I'll post more as things come together.
The lasers are LaserWave 100mw 532nm from Dave "The Man" at LSP and (very soon) some tasty Red Lava 130mw 642nm from DrLava.
Scanners are DT25 from our friend DZ

Before:
A local machine shop gave me a great deal on 2 cut-to-fit 1/4" AL plates. The standoffs are from the original guts of the scanner. The next picture has the main plate flipped over so I could work on things. Its more compact when it is oriented in its actual upside down position.
Ready to close- dimensions are 9x11x5
On a stand:
