Eat Sleep Lase Repeat
andy, please dont think that I am harping on your unit at all because im not. But my question because I have seen the prism clamp thing done by others too is...WHY???
what is wrong with a very tiny dab of epoxy in the corners, adjust for nice beam and let dry...I guess you might want to adjust it later or something???
Am i missing something???

Probably worrying for nothing but don't you think the lasorbs might get a little hot on top of the heat sink over time?
I was wondering if maybe you'd be better gluing a small piece of ceramic (smaller than the lasorb body) onto the heatsink then gluing the lasorb to that to make a small stand off.
Alternatively you could bond them vertically (contacts upwards) to the side of the base plate directly behind the diode housing and this would allow much shorter leads - a few mm only, plus it would take the lasorbs off the potenitally hot top of the heat sink entirely:
