Laser Pointer

thingiverse

This is a laser pointer I made up on the fly, it's a simple print for the body of the pointer and the laser diode and driver are bought online. This design works with a standard 13x33mm dia. diode module and two AAA batteries. I used a 30mw 532nm (green) laser diode from:http://www.amazon.com/532nm-Blu-Ray-Burning-Laser-Module/dp/B005S645N4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1329096319&sr=8-5 Instructions I used a Maker Bot MK6 to print the sections needed for the laspointer body out of white 1.75mm ABS. It's a pretty simple build, I think for all the parts it took less than an hour. All you need to do is print the module/driver enclosure (laser_enclose2a) and then glue the battery enclosure (laser_enclose2b) to the top of the module enclosure. Insert laser diode, 2 AAA batteries, a wire that runs out to connect to the body of the module, and the end cap. This was just a a quick test print and design. I am going to revise this design and upload new files when I have the time. UPDATE I noticed that some of the files I uploaded were .stl.stl for some reason. It's fixed now. UPDATE UPDATE I just uploaded some revised files, printed them out and they are perfect. UPDATE
