So the redesign is coming along nicely in my opinion.. Here's some shots of the assembly as it stands so far..  I'm in the process of printing these out as I type this so I will have some photographs of those soon...  It was also suggested to me that I label things in the pictures...so here goes!

Here's the optics system up to the point of the beam splitter... I am starting work on the objective lens and cuvette tray assembly tonight..

A sort of top down view....

A view from the right...

A sort of view from the top down..

From underneath..

And from the top and above...

These modules are based on the optics I have purchased from eBay... It is my intention to make them parametric, and also provide direct links to specific optics you can purchase from places like Edmund and I will provide the parameters for each one..  This way it will allow for a very customizable option as well as a standard to base everything from...

Here is a sample list (NOT FINALIZED) for optics that I will be providing the parameters for...  This is all from Edmund Optics..  http://www.edmundoptics.com/ Mind you......this list is all brand new components.....not from eBay, so the prices are higher...  It may/will change and I may include other manufacturers, I want to find the best choices for the best prices....!!

More updates soon!!!

Update!  Here's some real photos of the above!

The beamSplitter mount just finished off the 3D printer....still has the supports under it..

A partially assembled test of the laser emitter case, the shutter, surface mirror and beam splitter...

I'll try to get better pics up soon!
