Holography This was my first attempt to make a three dimensional reflection hologram using a laser diode. Vibration Isolation Table 150 lb. granite block sitting on top of four Sorbothane Vibration Isolators (NT55-244, $16) Laser diode and Double-Concave (DCV) lens (NT32-988, $18.50) My friend machined the stainless steel mounts for the laser and lens. Holographic Recording Plate (PFG-03) with Lego man Finished hologram - 12/30/02 The Lego man came out in 3D but this picture doesn’t quite do it justice. It was hard to take a good picture because I had a very cheap camera. Laser diode stand - 1/26/04 This laser diode stand was one of my recent machining projects. I have not used it yet. It will give the laser diode a complete 6 degrees of freedom.
