    Looks great

    nice garage by the way, more space than me to work
    Yep and eyup, i guess; I'm sure that there are larger prisms out there ( I had to use only what was laying around the house for this project, except for the blue diodes and the lenses.) Thanks Michelrietveld! Unfortunally that's not my garage, that's an upstairs bedroom (hobby-room) and it's a total disaster area. My wife wants me to clean it up. I always say "after this last project I will" but the projects seem to be ongoing and never-ending, so .. it never gets done ..

ID:	25805Ok, it's 1 day until the laser/ fireworks show, so I really better get my lazy rump in gear. 1. Find a suitable projector. Hmm .. here's 1 with a
    malfunctioning 473 who's down to 1/2 power. I'll yank it out and put the 445 in here.
    Now for the drilling and tapping (never get tired of that.. ) and mounting this toroid and bridge that I found lying around..




    Aallrighty then.. fire it up...

    Thanks Aaron. I've got a low powered 532 (need to upgrade), that's combined with the 445 to make a turquoise/cyan color which is pushing about 1.5W after optics, and a separate 636nM 250 mW red projector. I write waveforms for the cyan one on adobe audition and burn them to disc to modulate the scanners. Quite low tech but fun anyway.
