    Default WTB: optic bread board

    looking to buy a slab of optical bread board for some beam table experiments.

    doesn't have to be pretty, but does need to be affordable.

    anyone? anyone? bueller? bueller?
    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    yeah... that's the problem ;(

    kind of hoping someone would have a dusty one in their shop somewhere... i found a 22x16 on ebay for 315$, which is a good price, but i'd like a little more room to play with.

    Default optic table

    i am also looking for a breadboard / optic table to play with different configurations, i sent a message to the dutch supplier of admesy for pricing information on their optical breadboards.
    take a look at http://www.admesy.nl/products/docs/A...cal_tables.pdf
    or lookup their website.

    perhaps this is what you are looking for but as i said, no idea of pricing, hope to get a reply next monday.

    I think Newport gives a fair deal. Not cheap but also not overpriced ... A fair price and a truely professional service. They won't forget to send your order out hahahaaa!

    Add one to that list!

    I feel a GB coming on.... or would it even be possible to get these machined out of aluminium stock if we have enough supply?

    I imagine there are a few people with CNC routers here. Those *should* be able to cut some square slabs with a few holes in them, right?
