The idea:
This is an aixiz-sized (12mm diameter) module for C-Mount diodes. It centers the emitter dead centre in the module, and provides a threaded tap for affixing the C-Mount diode, as well as second threaded tap on top for attaching a lead to the case itself (neat feature). The C-Mount itself will overhang the rear of the module slightly. This is absolutely unavoidable thanks to the geometry of C-Mounts, and the 12mm diameter of the module. So the module will have to hang back in the heatsink a bit.
Here's the design:
The pseudo-groupbuy:
Here's the deal. After the horrible outcome of the attempted groupbuy with StevieDezie scamming us out of our money, I don't have the heart to setup another groupbuy using eMachineShop. The time lines for waiting on eMachineShop make it too dangerous for those who contribute money ahead of time.
I'm not going to ask for (nor will I accept) any money up front. Rather, I will just take a commitment to purchase the modules once they're made, in my hands, and verified to work with C-Mount diodes. I'm going to fund the project myself, place the order, and wait till I have them in hand before collecting payments and sending the mounts.
Instead of committing with money, I'm just going to maintain a list here of verbal (errr, "written" I suppose) commitments to purchase later. Please don't commit unless you're really committing to follow-through. On this note, I won't put new members (or members with minimal posts or no rep) on the list, but I'll still happily sell you one of the extras once they arrive.
So, this list is really for the benefit of seeing if a bulk CNC fabrication is viable. I still haven't paid off my costs in ordering those MOD9s.
These will cost more than the MOD9s, because it will be a much smaller run. If anyone has a cheaper source for such a small run, let me know. The cost will be:
2 pcs, for $25 USD, includes shipping to anywhere.
And we need 20 participants. Please don't commit unless you will follow through with payment once these arrive:
1) Daguin
2) BHWollen (x13)
3) Johnyz
4) jnhowett
5) 532 with Envy (x2)
