Wonder if there are health consequences of spending so much time in narrowband environments.

Made a lens holder. Idea is to run it on an aluminum square tube to make an optical bench but I got the tolerance of square hole wrong so it doesn’t fit. Lens sits nicely though

Success! Modified design to be to have a clampable top. Now to make similar fixtures for other lenses, mirrors, light source, screen… I have a cunning plan to bend the light path with right prisms.

We make progress on diy optical bench. End pieces and 2 lens holders. Next: light source and screen.

Bought a pair of right prisms and verified the principle of total internal reflection for myself. Now I can use binoculars and trust they’re not a conspiracy. Do your own research.

Made a dovetail joint lamp fixture. Will need a box and collimating lens around it, but trying to get basics right. Bulb sits a bit loose 😕

Used this 5mm copper tape for the connection. This sucks. Connection doesn’t work well. Contact is too light.

Still, it’s a start. Might reprint with tighter fit. Maybe blob of solder? Will solder stick to PLA?

Make the tape double sided. The adjesive is conductive and will stick to the bulb body
