My bad; this was sorta a message to CDBeam, who built some some of the parts for my laser "Brewster", which is built into a beer keg. Lasers out the bung hole.
I keep meaning to write this up for PL, and will, but in the meantime, here are some teaser pix of the first iteration of this:

Well....Yes....Whenever Clickamouse suggests a new novel build....The entire " Terrawatt Labs R&D team " put on our " Brain Boost" apparatus helmets....See pic.. and brace ourselves for yet another..." 10 lbs'O'sh!t....in a 5 lbs bag challenge !!....NEVER in a rectangular box...and NEVER much room !!!

Toucan with text.jpgWell Jordi....I am thankful you appreciate my warped humor !!! Sometimes...It is a little too ....er....ah...." Stiff " around here at PL.
One CANNOT accuse me of that attribute !!! In my opinion....I am one of the least professional/serious "Rocket Scientist" I know....and have no intention of changing now !!! See pic !! Later...CDBEAM=======>

AND...common !!! No other opinions on ...." Toucan....or NOT Toucan....That is the QUESTION " ( NUBM07E ) WTH !!!

Got some new stock of 6x lens pairs arriving on Monday if anyone is interested

Hi Dave!

I am interested after receiving a pair of DTR of these lovely diodes.
With my 4x lenses i was able to bring it down to 40x10m @ 23m distance.
But very close it was already something like 11mm which is waaaay to wide.

Have also send you email. hope to hear from you soon, couldn't find the lenses on your website else i would have already ordered!

Kind regards,
Dimitri

Well....a set of 6X cylindricals really tighten up the divergence....IIRC.... 0.65 mRad !!! Very tight
.
Small, very thin and wispy artifacts....above and below the spot.....(likely could be greatly reduced with a spatial filter) when static....but...when the scanner starts to swing the beams around....all is perfect !!
.
Thanx Dave,
Beam Out...
