Hey guys. It's been a while. It looks like not much has changed around here since I last stopped by.
I just wanted to share a photo from my trip to the desert last night. There was supposed to be a new meteor shower. It ended up being a dud but I went out there more for the snakes than the stars. However, the Milky Way was looking pretty good, despite the poor atmospheric conditions, and someone else was playing with a green laser so I decided to pull out my blue guy and show off a bit. Needless to say, the laser was the brightest thing in the sky that night.
About the laser: It's built with Jayrob's chrome pen kit, one of Lazeerer's amazing drivers (I don't remember which - it's been so long since I built this), an M-140 diode and 405-G-1 lens from DTR, and with a custom stainless focus ring made by the one and only Flaminpyro. Thanks to these guys for their awesome stuff and skill!
So here are the photos:
