Kochlab exposure
I decided to upload our laser diode build to an über nerdy do-it-yourself website. It's located here.
 * Steve Koch 23:33, 18 March 2009 (EDT):It has 131 views already! The dovetail looks great.

Olympus dovetail
John at the Physics machine shop has started our dovetail piece. I changed the design to accommodate Thorlabs' ø2" lens tubes.



The threads for the tubes are on both sides of the dovetail. This of course takes more time to build but, it is adaptable. Here's a 3D image as well.
