    Default I am so proud of myself! My first projector.

    Its took me about a year to put together what with looking after 2 kids every afternoon and a Mrs who just dont understand...A Man needs his toys

    Many thanks to all the people who have helped me along the way and put up with my many noob questions. Also thanks to all the people who run the group buys.

    Dont know the total output but the Green 532 was measured @ 160-170mw
    The Dual LOC 650 is running @ 420ma through standard Aixis Lens. I made my own micro adjustable mounts for this.
    The 445 is set @ 300ma through an O-Like Lens.

    Scanners are DT25's and all controlled By Pangolin FB3 LivePro/Quickshow.

    I have 2 extraction fans but this thing runs so cool I havn't got them connected.

    No safety features yet but I will continue to improve this with a better green and maybe a quad Red for next year...and some safety features

    I am struggling with beam shots but they will come.

    Hey Jacey, looks neat! What did you use for the enclosure's exterior? I have used DT25, they work great- especially for beams. Looks like you're having some fun

    Hi Mike,

    The enclosure is a purpose built laser enclosure I bought off a forum member (AC Lasers)

    Yeah I am very happy with the DT25's they are really performing well.

    Thanks

    Jason

    Congrats man. Looking forward to seeing some pics in action. LivePro is a huge difference from FB3 alone yes? Using any special controller for LivePro?
    Wiki:The first visible wavelength laser diode was demonstrated by Nick Holonyak, Jr. in 1962.

    Thanks,
    I am only just begining to scratch the surface of both programs. In fact I am just content at the moment to just click away on the built in cues, their awesome!
    LivePro is a beast of a program, thats going to be a long learning curve.

    Just a mouse and keyboard at the moment but I have some MIDI gear that I could setup for control.

    Im like a little kid again at the moment....Lasers Rock
