Nice rods... 3mm x 50mm, $189.00, 50 available. In case anyone's interested. I'm happy with my big twelve inch...

I'd be happy with 12" too ;D However, these rods also require a mirror, OC, pump tubes and power supply which is a bit beyond many of the 1337 language type experimenters here. It takes a HeNe to just get the mirrors close !!
