Here is my attempt a your basic beam expander. The whole thing consists of
just two double concave lenses and a dichro. All three of these optics
have been taken from an A140 projector. The laser is an Aixiz 50mW labby,
with which i have removed the final lense from and in its placed glued on one
of the projector lenses. In the interest of saving space and making this as
compact as possible i reflected the beam 90 degrees off a dichro before
passing it through the second lense. The second lense is mounted to a
threaded pipe cap and which is screwed into a small peice of threaded pipe.
This allows for a small amout of adjustablity in its focus. The dichro and final
lense are then held in place by some angle brackets.
