    If you would like, I can wait for you to select the fasteners you will use to attached the laser diode to the plate.

    Once you select the fastener and provide the diameter and depth of the counter-bore, I can add the counter-bore to the plate and then ship it to you. The counter-bore will be consistent in depth and diameter versus trying to add them with a drill press.

    Let me know if you would like me to wait for your dimensions or ship the plate now.

    Here are the screws for the counter-sinks. They are M3 screws. The heads are 5.5mm diameter and 2mm deep.

    Also, can you add another set of two through-holes another 25mm towards one end? (see third image).

    thanks again!!!

    I added the counter sinks for the fasteners and the extra holes:

    One of the counter sink became slightly larger than the others.

    Please PM me with your address and I will ship tomorrow.
