    1.5 inch lens

    After a few days of intricate cutting on several 32x20 latex sheets, I have become familiar with the headaches that rubber will pose to anyone and their machine. But damn does it look good when everything is dialed in just right! I learned the hard way that your lens should be cleaned as frequently as every 30 minutes if you want to keep it from becoming trash. That being said, I'm in the market for new lenses and I've always wanted a 1.5" Can someone offer the various levels of quality/longevity from preferred suppliers? I've seen plenty of you guys say that your offbrand economy lenses work just great but I suspect this is less true for the bottom range of focal depth/ spot size. Am I correct? I'm thinking of grabbing a 1.5" from IIVI but will it need a different holder than my 2" and where might I find one of those?

    You can buy it from Trotec and I think II-VI has them as well.
