    Gotta say I agree, with Dave. If you are trying to reflect it after the lens you are going to run into the hourglass convergence issue of reducing your power pretty quick. The 2.0 lens really only...

    I've seen filters of many types and I've seen a few PVC installs out there. As for home brews, not exactly something I'm advocating, I'm more or less advocating machine shop type build with the...

    Yea, it's more of a thing that you need to be making a fair bit of margin on something to use it. The machine does rust, but that's not a big deal. It's more about the electronics that it eats up...

    Hi Keith, you can go one of two ways. You can use the tapper edge effect of moving the lens closer by .1 inches and bumping up the power that should give you a few more degrees of tilt to work...

    From a little of my experience and the experience of others who sold in this market, glass tubes in the above 100w market tend to be overrated. Where the metal ones that say 150 will output 150-170w...

    Not that I really recommend it, but I've ran across it before. Pretty much requires rebuilding the inside of the laser chamber annually and shortens the life of the main frame of equipment from a...

    Depending on the size, look at purlator serv-a-pak filters. Just remember what you measure isn't the exact size. 11.2 inches is the nominal for 12 inches. 23.5 is the nominal for 24.

    Air assist and or a noble gas is your friend. Higher power helps too. I've run rosewood with good luck at 150w. But not very many folks have access to that kind of power.

    If you do a sheet of them and make sure the cut mark for each mask is the same height from the text so you can simply just apply it to the lip and go. This lets you do it in larger sets.
