Hey LaserX,

Not a bad effort for your first. You clearly have some lathe skills and are putting them to good use. Plenty of input to be found here on LPF and plenty of opportunities to give back too.

Enjoy your time and don't stop now!

Yeah, great build man, I like to see people that already know their stuff before posting here, and the fact that you made your own heatsink!
Enjoy your stay here with us at LPF and be sure to take in all the great info;)

Thank you all!!!
Grazie a tutti!!

However I'm waiting for a SF-AW210 laser pickup bought on Ebay from Cina. I bought a Driver:
405nm blu-ray laser diode driver [OLBVD20] - $6.99 : Welcome to O-Like.com, Your source for laser products

and a BluRay laser module with glass lense from O-Like.com too:

405nm laser module housing w/glasses lens [OL1845-BL] - $12.99 : Welcome to O-Like.com, Your source for laser products

so when I'll receive them I'll try to make my first BluRay Laser.

I bought from USA an Aixiz laser module with glass lense too. Do you think its better than this one (this one up from O-Like.com)??


What do you think about?? Did I bought the right driver and laser housing for the SF-AW210 laser diode?? Thank you for your support!!

We typically use the aixiz module around here, I'd recomend you use that. You can also get a special glass lens for it called the 405nm G-1 for a 33% increase in power, made jayrob, a fellow member of this forum. Dont run the SF over 175mA if you want moderate life, however it can be taken to 180mA and still last, just keep it under 185mA.

You can get a sweet driver here: http://hacylon.case.edu/ebay/laser_diode/Micro_FlexDrive.php
