Well, here we go again... another build from...you guessed it...ME!!!!
Anyways.....I'm shootin' for a high powered Red Laser this time. Nothing too high, just something that can do average burning. You know, light matches, pop balloons, cut tape, light fireworks, and see the beam in daylight. So yeah. If I remember correctly, the MA of the driver should be around 400. I'm going to need a CHEAP but GOOD heatsink for it considering the power, and will most likely be using a Groove Drive with preset milliamps. I'm just asking for some help on the build such as tips, where to even buy the stuff, and what I should use for a housing. Lastly, I will probably need the diode already set into the housing, because, well, I learned that I have difficulty doing that the hard way. Thanks for any help, Logan.
