    If you stack only two beams, you have a reserve in distance. If more, the density of stacking increases and losses will be significant. Moreover, if you have a ton of mirrors in the garage, the choice is obvious

    the mirrors i use cost about £1 each, prism mirrors are £15 each. i wish i could afford prism mirrors but i really cant.

    so say i need 10 mirrors in one build thats £150 just on prism mirrors i still then have the cost of mirror mounts.

    i machine the mirror mounts for pennies and can machine how i want, so i use normal FS mirrors and custom mirror mounts

    simple ;-)

    I don't plan to buy ))) When I'm looking on that, I get inspired by my machine exploits. Thanks for your pics!

    Are these for your own projector, or a client/clients?
    6W of 445 and 4W of 638 is starting to add up to something quite tasty.

    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    Nice build, what's the specs on your c-lenses? I couldn't a 3.5mm beam from the lenses I used and have a good divergence.

    Thanks
