First 445nm Build (ghetto)

[ouch3994]

I found that my old pair of red-blue 3D glasses (The flimsy Red lens) actually helped A LOT more then those T-rex you own (which I own too). T-rex only helps with lower powered lasers (100mW green looks like a 5mW when using those shades). Weird huh? :crackup:

Funny, because i actually had the same idea when i first built a 200mw red laser, i used the blue side from the 3-D glasses to protect my eye(s),

...and then i experimented and saw how quickly lasers burn through the thin plastic...

If you all thought the pipe fittings were ghetto, I decided to mix toothpaste with vaseline intead of buying thermal paste. But the results show it works decently
