:mad: EVERYTHING. :mad: ..Except the battery and clicky-switch endcap.

Who needs Photoshop? Axes are much simpler. Actually, it was the blunt side of a maul, if you want to be technical. Im rather pissed. I do hope Boosted_4_cyl spends the money I gave him on soldering lessons.

Faulty soldering will plague this laser no more.

Not seeing any spots or feeling any pain..

Just did some finishing touches on this 1w 445. Go to put the battery in, and have it pointed at a surface a couple hundred feet away. No dot when I screw in the battery cap, so I figure it's off. But the switch was not off, there was a faulty connection between the anode and hot battery...

Where did the diode come from? *wants to make one*

You've destroyed two 445 diodes with a faulty power supply, but you don't want to spend money on a proper driver? *does not compute*

What amperage is the driver circuit capable of? Might buy one of these just to harvest the module/driver.

Yeah..Im going to experiment with different combinations of thermal deflection/color filter layers. Ordered these goggles, btw. ARG - UV, Blu Ray, Argon, Blue, KTP Green Protection ARG - UV, Blu Ray, Argon, Blue, KTP Green Protection [NR-ARG-EN207] - $78.20

I carry a variety of defensive tools, depending on the circumstances. Collapsible Baton: Very discreet and effective, not lethal unless you need it to be. Works pretty good carried horizontally in the back or front. Boot knife: Nice and sharp dagger or tanto. Isn't used for any utility...

If it's built to go directly over stage lights, it's got to have some degree of heat resistance? Is it counterintuitive to have the colored filter sandwiched between heat shields? Melting point of electrical tape: 80ºC Melting point of Roscolux Supergel: 220ºC Suppose I ordered enough to...

Wayyy more than I need. I only want to scribe on wood/leather, not incinerate it.

I went ahead and ordered the IR, UV, Thermal, and Canary filter gels, as well as a couple pairs of welding goggles as the donor units These are the rated goggles I ordered. If Canary Yellow passes 1% of 445nm, that makes it OD2? So what about two sheets? 1% of 1% would be 0.01%, or OD4? It...

Ease of use? I guess it could run on AC and be attached to a jig of some sort.

So OD3 is 0.1%, and OD4 is 0.01%?

Was thinking about ordering the stuff to build a few pairs of these. Before you barge in and say "JUST BUY REAL ONES", well, I've already ordered a pair. Just want to experiment with making my own as well. :wave: I looked through all the Roscolux Theatrical Gel Data Charts, and whipped up this...

Laser engraver! IR would give the best capabilities for the price, or no?

Big..meaty...black.....LASER! I'd like to build an IR of this magnitude. What was your total cost for the build(dollars/hours)?

I've got a few sample blocks of metal foam laying about, got me wondering.. What are your thoughts on using this kind of stuff in a laser?

Is $15 shipped fair?
