I'm going to try out a desktop CNC from Ali express. I know a lot of the modules described as 15 watt or 10 watt have an out put of 4 or 5 watt. I know this will cut 5 mm in three passes Has anyone tried any of the fat ones that are marked 30 watts. These are new. The video shows it cutting...
I just saw on NBC News another idiot fired a blue high powered laser at an aircraft.. It was somewhere in California. From what I can tell he got arrested thank God. How can We protect our hobby if people like this get a hold of cheap high power pointers? I'm glad the pilot had a level head and...
It lives!!
I had a 5.5 watt that had died last year so I had Sanwu make a module that was 7 watt for it
I sent the host back to them. He repolished it up for me while it was there. In the meantime I got the expander for it as well. Of course I just had to fire it
I have a FullSpectrum CNC portable machine. It
Covers approxamatly11x18 area inside the machine. It has a 40 watt co2 laser tube in it. Comes with external blower, compresser, water pump for coolant. The bottom is removable to do larger work or material.
It works best on thinner materials. It...
Well we all know these big diodes have astigmatism. Can anyone grind a singl lens to correct for it? More cylidrical for the fast axis and less on the slow? I never seen anyone attempt this. Im sure each different diode will require a different setup for the grinder just like an optimologist...

Lenses from projection TV $45 for...
I scored three lenses from an old TV and the fresnel screen lens. The lenses are biconvex and flatter on one side. Much like a human eye lens. Anyone interested?
The screen lens cracked, so it still has 24"by 36" of usable area

Anyone ever see this? It retails for 450$. I know many could build for much less. I could see someone hooking up a laser in the pen holder. But I would need a way to turn on and off the beam when the pen holder drops (on) and lifts (off)
I had Eitan take a graph of the Laser made for me. He did tell me he used old crappy 18650 trusfire for this test and one other previous test. I can't wait to receive it and use a pair of Panasonic batteries I will purchase from a vapor shop. I had him also extend the barrel to take two 18650s...
The package finally came after two months. I ordered two of the same model.
They were well wrapped
Here they are in light of day
They are fat and stubby!
Not really impressed with craftsmanship on inside. The pill is loose on one of them.
Gotta have a beam shot. Impressive!
Yes it...
I wanted a powerful compact 405 nm Laser. I was impressed with what Podo had put together with the big 5.2 watt Laser. I wanted the Laser to have its actually power engraved into the host and its wave length. The Chinese name for this Laser is Dragon's Breath.
Bear with me as I post more. I'm...
