I am looking to build a handheld laser for under 40 dollars that is at least 50mw. I have a small parts list and want to make sure everything will work as it should before I make the purchases.
Housing:
DIY Empty CLASSIC Host for Laser Pointer ( Complete Set )
Diode:

Driver:
New 405nm laser diode driver / adjustable to 600mA [OL-N405D-600] - $11.50 : Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce
Battery (1 or 2?):
18650 1400mAh Rechargable Li-ion Battery 1pcs
I want to learn to build lasers and would like a cheap and simple project I can practice with. Please guide me through doing this as you would a complete newcomer.
Thanks in advance for your time,
