Yeah, I mean , if DX would sell one of these, premade for around 40 bucks, there would be alot of people who would insta-buy it.

Yes, i think there is some money to be made here *hint* Maybe ill email DX. I Asked them about blue right after the first shipment of the dildas were deivered, and a few weeks later..."Poof" there they were, blue freikin lasers. Maybe they'll do the same for these ghetto yellows?

I don't doubt that the manufacturer of the host pointer could make this with little problem as an original manufacture item you would go about it in a different way rather than the add-on that I have done....I wonder whether they will try?

How does rog8811 make it look so easy? Because there is no way it is. The orthoscopic surgeon strikes again!
Awesome!

It is because I didn't photograph myself banging of my head on the bench in frustration.....or record the expletives that erupted from my workshop at times
Some thoughts for other prospective builders:-
You do not need to turn down the front end of the pointer, this became obvious to me after my design change on the optics.
Try and source a flashlight with a removable front end that will fit the front of the pointer, use that as the holder for the optics. There is always more than one way to skin a cat............
Any one of you can do it, take your time, doing a small bit of gluing and leaving it to dry before moving on to the next bit is the secret. It is worth the effort

Not as far as I am aware.
I bet if it was in the buy sell trade section (not that it will be) it would get some interest

The batteries I bought for this are well in date but they last no time at all, I am going to try a 10440 and a spacer, with a diode in it to drop the extra voltage, it may or may not last longer but is at least rechargable.
I do wonder whether to try with 3.7v but I am aware that the DX greens are usually quite sensitive to over voltage.

With fresh batteries the green is a little strong, you get a very green but still obvious yellow. Once the batteries have had a bit of use it gets better and as the batteries fade it turns more to orange.tone1132 said:

Sweet job.
Is there any DX glue that you recommend for mounting the filters? or something else

I messaged dx, i have a query i sent in about a month ago. I explained to them about this yellow pointer, they said they will contact the manufacturer for me.( i don't know how truthful that is but im trying because this pointer is sweet)
