Re: Optics B/C
Yeah. I've found that they're essential for being both accurate and quick.terence.tan wrote:do you guys use any templates for the laser shoot

Re: Optics B/C
Personally I use 45-45-90 triangles (you can make them really fast by folding one side of the corner of a piece of paper to the other side) and then I just align them to the midline/side of the box.terence.tan wrote:can you describe them to me plzMattChina wrote:i used templates.terence.tan wrote:do you guys use any templates for the laser shoot

Re: Optics B/C
Or you could do what I did and buy them for Staple. pretty sure that they sell them for a very reasonable price. They are good plastic and won't move. Also, due to them having thickness, its very easy to align mirrors, much easier than paper.UTF-8 U+6211 U+662F wrote:Personally I use 45-45-90 triangles (you can make them really fast by folding one side of the corner of a piece of paper to the other side) and then I just align them to the midline/side of the box.terence.tan wrote:can you describe them to me plzMattChina wrote: i used templates.

Re: Optics B/C
What do you guys make your rigs out of? Paper or something else? I personally use paper but I feel like it's too flimsy sometimes.

If you mean the LSS box, we make it out of wood (plywood in specific).ElPotato wrote:What do you guys make your rigs out of? Paper or something else? I personally use paper but I feel like it's too flimsy sometimes.

Re: Optics B/C
Ah no I meant the templates that people use to position mirrors. I would love to see a laser shoot made out of paper lol.WhatScience? wrote:If you mean the LSS box, we make it out of wood (plywood in specific).ElPotato wrote:What do you guys make your rigs out of?
