    69

    Sigh... a wonderful number but, not in this case. C'mon folks!

    Add 2 of the 5.6mm's for me. I don't know what I'll use them for but, at least we're only down to 29 to get this going.

    Swami, what color you looking for. Can't remember if they were broadband or not, but I can look up the lens I was using in my single mode x12 red build, if it might work. Should have a couple I could just send ya if you want to try em out.

    ALso in need of an adjustable mount for reds if those fit in the scope of this buy.

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    I am in need of some mounts fairly quickly, was going to contact you about it but just noticed this group buy. Would there be much of an additional delay in buy this way vs direct through you ? As fast probably the most important in this case vs price.

    I'm in need of 4 5.6mm's that I can think of at the moment and possibly 9mm or two, and if budget allows a few 3.8mm's. I'm just trying to determine whether adjustable or standard would be the best for me. It's for doubling up my blues into quad modules, was planning to test one of the 2mm fl lenses with blue next week as if I can get a small enough initial beam size without too much loss, I'd much rather stack the pairs rather than knife edge.

    Perhaps someone can save me some time though, has anyone build a quad using the f2's and stacking ?

    I've seem you mention that in the past, but was hoping something had changed as unfortunately the focal length of the g2 which is what I've been using in my duals, results in too tall a beam to stack and so would have to knife edge or telescope it down after correction which I'm hoping to avoid. I think it was Logsquared who posted that he had some decent results with your 2mm lens, which is what got me re-thinking it.

    But count me in for some mounts anyhow. Will figure it out over the next or two exactly how many.

    HAHAHAHA !! He only has one/uno/single polished ball....therefore the name..." PolishedBall " !!!

    Perhaps, Mr.John will regale us with the story behind his " Nom De Plumb " Beam Out !!
