[PART 1] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Group buy officially closed! Lights shipping.

Yes will update the list later.

Simple answer is:
Those who have received a PM for down payment are in the $111 group.
Those who didn’t yet receive it are in the $150 group

Just a small question, down payment was for the small amunt paymenr, right?

Ehm,the downpayments were for the GT in the $111 price group. It is the first $14 paid of the $111

Thanks, just a it paranoid that I missed the payment for the remaining amount.

I'm in for two thanx

I’m in for 1 please.

Welcome to BLF two new members!
Will update the list later!

How is this one progressing? And work from the company on when production may start ?

If you want to play with such a spherical lens, they can be found in every old slide projector that are around on ceilings everywhere around the globe. I already broke one when trying to cut a hole, it will be a major undertaking!

Just a thought…… You might have good luck taking it to a glass company to have it drilled. They should have the proper tools & know-how.

Djozz, I was thinking about those spherical steel domes someone linked some pages ago.

Perhaps it would be possible to drill a hole in the steel, polish the inside until it was a mirror, then electroplate it in aluminum? Steel makes for a pretty bad reflector, but if I manage to electroplate it with aluminum, it might work well enough. Polishing it would be quite the task, though.

Teacher, I doubt I will find anyone with the know-how and tools to do that where I live, but I suppose I can ask around.

On another mod-related note, I got another mail from optolife telling me the A037 lens will be shipped once finished (In around a month).

Maybe the guys at optolife would be willing to cut a hole into their projector lens? They should have the tools required to cut glass, for obvious reasons. If I wanted to ask them, which reflector would be the better choice for a makeshift wavien collar? How big should the hole be?

MARK list updated

In my post #6370 I requested a second Giga thrower, but I don’t see my name listed. Am I looking at the wrong list? Thank you

Sorry I didn’t see it. Thank you very much!!

My bad ‘kaybi’, I did notice your location. Your probably right. :+1:

we need pics and beamshots……… :stuck_out_tongue:

Omg. I’ve read the first 322 posts and can’t see myself getting through another 6000 to find out the final design, and am loving the discussion. But please, can someone point me to the post number with a “final spec”, or a close to final for this light? Please and thank you!

Please put me down for one. Thanks
