G'day,

So i found some 25mm aluminum round bar at work, then asked the resident machinist to give me a crash course on the lathe.

I copied a standard C6 heatsink from Survival lasers and put my own extended and taper on it, the other is a focus adapter similar to what flaminpyro has done for me in the passed.

Did a polish job on them and they turned up a treat :)

Hope you like em!
