lol, blue, everyone wants a lavadrive...


Kenom is working on the GC for a lavadrive option on his website. other than that, you will have to read a couple pages back, or wait for kenom himself to tell you how.

Re: Laser Barrels V2. GB. Second run.

Ordered 1 and paid. BTW, When should I expect my run 1 barrel? And what else do I have to get from the hardware store to make it work correctly? Are changes made to the 2nd run barrels to fix those "DIY" additions?

Rob --

As stated elswhere, The Kryton head is a tight fit for a diode. be sure to bevel the lip of the hole before attempting to press it. There is some variance in LD's and the hole may have to be scraped a bit for the specific diode used.
Because there are differences, Kenom made it "adjustable" ;D

run 1 will be completed when I get the drivers from bluefusion. he's almost done with them the last time I inquired.
as far as what you need at the hardware store for run 1 if you didn't buy the snap ring or aperture cap from me then your going to look for a 1/4" hinged screw cover, and a 11/16" snap ring for inside diameter fitting. that's it!
All of these things will come with run 2 no extra cost.

Re: Laser Barrels V2. GB. Second run.

Hemlock mike was good enough to give me a preview of what the fins might look like on the head of these barrels. so I figured I would share with you all how nice a job he did and to give you an idea. Mike's assessment that there's not enough room on the head for 4 fins is accurate and we're going to change the design to go to 3 fins.

Mike will be also turning one out with three fins hopefully soon and we'll get to see the difference.

Thanks mike! Stylistically, I prefer it to have a thicker final fin, as in the sketches in the first post, but it looks decent. There is also the option of lengthening the head by a fin to fit 4.

The cuts I made in mine are mostly decorative. I put my second cut in space between the barrel and head. It serves to hide the parting line.
