Wow ! I have competition.....I have done it....lot of time.....and experimenting. But when you see the beam.....that's when all is OK. I would strongly suggest LBO. BiBo is great if you can get the temp to hold within .1 deg. Any more sway in the temp from here and the walkoff angle will change up to 3 deg. plus it is only good for a little over 200mw from what I have read. Be sure your Yag is coated for for the 1319 and 1064 bands on S1. Do NOT buy a "kit" off e-bay. Some one said that this set I have came from there.NOT. I have direct access to the manu from the same company that CNI and a lot of other laser manu's get them from. They are NOT Casix either. Do your research on Sam's faq until you reach the end of all you can find there....not much on the 473 stuff..do a study of resonator designs and setups..then give me a call.
You are the only one that can make your dreams come true....and the only one that can stop them...A.M. Dietrich
