Somebody posted a link to these huge prisms on e-bay and I forget where the thread was, but who ever it was, thanks! :)

These things are awesome!

You can get these on e-bay for cheap. When any laser hits the end of the prism, it diffuses the light and the whole prism glows... 8-)

The ones with a slight nick are in really good shape. Well worth the price. Here's the e-bay link:

They have some premium ones too for a little more...

did you get the big-ass ones or the chipped ones? the chipped ones don't make big rainbows :(
 
I just bought two so far. The chipped one linked there for $28 bucks, and a premium one too for about double the money. (same size)

But the chip is tiny. More like a scratch. That picture that I showed with the green laser making it glow, is the chipped one...

I bought a lot of the 5 chipped ones. The chips were fair, but I don't think they're big enough for any fun :(
 
I notice that the giant one is shaped a little different. The sides are equal. The ends look like a perfect triangle. Does anyone know if this makes any difference?

Solid CRYSTAL Glass Prisms.

Hmm, now maybe it's just me, but I don't think something can be glass and crystal at the same time :-? Dave ?

Here the word "crystal" is used in the same sense as it is in "crystal" stemware (goblets, bowls, "leaded crystal", etc.) It is most definitely NOT any natural mineral crystal.

Peace,

Which direction was the laser coming from in your picture?
