I am also looking for a variety of items including (of course) lasers of
all kinds and high vacuum equipment and accessories. See the "Wanted to
Acquire" section at the end of this page.
I may be contacted directly via the
Sci.Electronics.Repair FAQ
Email Links Page. Use the "Feedback" button on that page
to Sam Goldwasser, any subject heading. Thanks.
Note: Although this page may be resident at some of my mirror sites,
the only official version is at: http://www.repairfaq.org/sam/sale/.
For large items I must also add a small packing fee to cover my
time and expenses. But for the most part, there are no handling
or other hidden charges. Faster shipping is available at extra cost.
I will be happy to use your shipping account if desired.
For insured items, a signature may be required when accepting the package.
It is your responsibility to make sure someone is available to do this!
I will ship to Canada for slightly extra. I do not generally ship
overseas but may agree to do so on an individual basis. The cost
of shipping is usually quite high. Please get an idea of the approximate
shipping cost from the USPS Web site so you won't be in for a shock
before contacting me. In either case, for
anything with a value of $100 or more, USPS Express Mail International
or Priority Mail International (or whatever they are called this week!)
will be used (your choice) since they are trackable and insured. You
may opt for a lower cost shipping method for less expensive items but
there will be no insurance and if nothing shows up or the package arrives
flat as a pancake, you're out of luck. Please provide a phone number
along with the address - required by some shippers.
A much preferred alternative for non-USA addresses is for me to ship
to a USA address who can then forward it to you anywhere in the World.
Find a friend in the USA who would be willing to do this. There are
also shipping companies for this purpose.
However, if I do agree to send it direct, in addition to the shipping
charges, I may have to add a hassle fee since non-USA destination (including
Canada) entail additional time and effort, sorry. The fair market or
insurance value of the item(s) will be used for the Customs form and
the buyer is responsible for any Customs duty on the receiving end.
Note: Please include your phone number when supplying address information
on foreign orders.
Furthermore (as if the above is not enough), I will NOT send items out of
the USA which may have export control issues. It really isn't worth the
hassle for me to determine what is allowed to your country. Sorry.
or through the Sci.Electronics.Repair FAQ
Email Links Page which ends up at the same place.
Subsequent communication will be
using direct email so you MUST provide a valid email address
on the Feedback form. Please double check it! We will never give
out your email address to anyone. DON'T use "anonymous" if you expect
a reply and make sure it's addressed to: Samuel Goldwasser.
I can't read minds and my crystal ball is still out for repairs! :-)
Be sure to include the item number(s) you're interested in and
any questions you have about them. If you're serious about ordering, include
your zipcode so I can figure the shipping cost. I will usually reply within
12 hours, usually quicker during the day (despite what it says about
up to a week on the Feedback Form page, unless it's addressed to the
wrong recipient!).
For HeNe laser heads and tubes at rock bottom prices, see the various
"homeless" specials below. I do have other HeNe lasers, tubes, and
heads avaialble. So, if there is something you'd like that's not listed,
feel free to contact me via the email link at the top of this page.
Red (632.8 nm):
Green (543.5 nm), yellow (594.1 nm), and IR (1,523 nm):
In addition to their intended metrology applications, these lasers can be
ideal as laboratory stabilized HeNe lasers and optical frequency/wavelength
reference lasers.
Some of these lasers may also be available for rental on a monthly basis
with option to buy.
Note 2: Since HP/Agilent and Zygo interferometer optics are often the same,
see the Zygo Metrology Lasers and Accessories section for optics as well
if you are interested in optics.
Note: Since HP/Agilent and Zygo interferometer optics are often the same,

While I do not currently have any Axsys lasers, some Teletrac lasers can
be used as drop-in replacements.
Red (632.8 nm) HeNe laser tubes and heads:
Green (543.5 nm), yellow (594.1 nm), and IR (1,523 nm) HeNe laser tubes
and heads:
The following are various laser heads or assemblies that include a laser
head that have an internal mirror at one end and a Brewster angle window
at the other end. Most of these have a wide bore and are easy to
align, but will generally be multi-spatial mode using a medium radius
mirror without an aperture inside the cavity, or the use of some other
means of mode control. The design wavelength in all cases is 633 nm
(normal HeNe red), but some are capable of at least some orange
(612 nm and maybe 605 nm) as noted. They are great for
general experimentation using an external cavity laser without the hassle
of critical alignment and optics cleaning at both ends.
See the section: HeNe Laser Optics
for inexpensive mirrors that will work great with these laser heads.
For a kit with most of the parts required to build a one-Brewster
laser, see the section: HeNe Laser Kits.
Detailed instructions for setting up one-Brewster heads and tubes can
be found in Care and Feeding of the
Climet 9048 One-Brewster HeNe Laser Head and
Care and Feeding of the
One-Brewster HeNe Laser Tube, respectively.
Two Brewster:
I no longer have any two-brewster laser heads that lase for sale. Only
heads with tubes in them that could be refilled. So, the only things
really useful here are the mirrors, unless you want to remove the tube
(lots of work) as a display piece.
These are Hughes 3184H HeNe laser heads which consist of a two-Brewster
HeNe laser tube inside a sturdy aluminum cylinder with mirrors mounted on
the end-plates. With the end-plates removed, the two-Brewster laser tube
may be used for all sorts of educational experiments using external mirrors.
The following 2 laser diodes are for experimental purposes with limited
specifications but should work well to pump DPSS green lasers up to about
100 mW and IR lasers up to about 400 mW. Samples have been tested with
both CASIX DPM MCAs and in Uniphase uGreen DPSS lasers. They are NOS
(new old stock) which means never used but a few years old. I will test
the diode(s) I ship for threshold current and current at maximum power.
Specifications were determined based on testing and their use in uGreen
lasers and comparison with similar diodes with known specs.
Like all bare laser diodes, these are extremely sensitive to Electro-Static
Discharge (ESD), overcurrent, and other causes. The warranty on these diodes
is only for misrepresentation of wavelength or maximum power. See the
DISCLAIMER and WARRANTY Form for High Power Laser
Diodes.
LD-SCL2372-P1 SDL 2 W multimode 808 nm laser diode in >10 $ 400.00
temperature controlled package with monitor
photodiode. This is what you need to repair
that tired weak Coherent 532 DPSS laser.
The following 3 laser diodes are for experimental purposes with limited
specifications but they do lase. They are NOS (new old stock) which means
never used but a few years old. I will test the diode(s) I ship for
threshold current and current at maximum power but that's it. To
determine what's listed below, samples of each type were tested
using an LDC-3900 laser diode controller. Wavelength was determined
using an Ando Optical Spectrum analyzer. Maximum output power was
estimated by increasing current in increments of 10 mA until output
didn't continue to increase or decreased. The rated power was then
assumed to be a nice round number below this value. :) Interestingly,
all tested diodes recovered fully unless pushed way beyond this point.
The power versus current data for three samples is plotted in
Single Mode Diodes Data.
They were determined to be single mode by using a 12 mm focal length lens
to project a spot on a screen about 1 meter away. The spot was a nice
point. A multi-transverse mode diode would result in a line which would
be a 80X or so magnified image of the stripe.
The beam shoots away from the mounting surface (C-mounts come in both
types). Like all bare laser diodes, these are extremely sensitive to static
and reverse polarity. Warranty on these diodes is only for misrepresentation
of wavelength, maximum power, or single mode. A refund will be issued if
any of these specs are found to be in error. Since high power single mode
laser diodes usually go for 3 or 4 times what I'm charging, it's a small risk
as long as you know how to safely drive this type of laser diode.
Like all bare laser diodes, these are extremely sensitive to Electro-Static
Discharge (ESD), overcurrent, and other causes. The warranty on these diodes
is only for misrepresentation of wavelength or maximum power. See the
DISCLAIMER and WARRANTY Form for High Power Laser Diodes.
Closeups of Samples of These C-Mount Diodes.
LD840-1 C-mount laser diode, 835-845 nm, appears to 10 $ 150.00
be single transverse mode, typical threshold
current around 30 mA. Probably rated 150 to
200 mW max. A sample was tested to 240 mW.
Slope efficiency: 0.83. C-mount is positive.
LD980-1 C-mount laser diode, 980-990 nm, appears to 20 $ 125.00
be single transverse mode, typical threshold
current around 27 mA. Probably rated 100 mW
max. A sample was tested to 140 mW. Slope
efficiency: 0.75. C-mount is positive. Uses
include pumping erbium:glass microchip lasers.
LD980-2 C-mount laser diode, 980-990 nm, appears to 9 $ 100.00
be single transverse mode, typical threshold
current around 15 mA. Probably rated 100 mW
max. A sample was tested to 130 mW. Slope
efficiency: 0.8. C-mount is NEGATIVE -
opposite of normal! Uses include pumping
erbium:glass microchip lasers.
The following are other diode laser related items.
DIOLASE1 Scanditronix Diolase 1 laser line generator. 2 $ 50.00
NOS. Adjustable focus and orientation.
Built-in driver with power switch and power
indicator, input: 9 VDC.
DIOLASE2 Scanditronix Diolase 2 laser line generator. 1 $ 75.00
NOS. Dual version of Diolase 1.
MGLINE1 Melles Griot laser line generator, adjustable 3 $ 15.00
optics (sort of), 670 nm, 12 VDC input, with
driver board. Includes mounting clamp. Line
generating optics are removable, resulting in
the equivalent of a clunky laser pointer. :)
The following "LDs" are mostly bare laser diodes with no driver. At
these prices, they are excellent candidates whos scrifices will be
justified for your first laser diode experiments. :)
LD1-1 Laser diodes in aluminum block with fixed >10 $ 1.50
collimating lens in aluminum block, 670 nm,
1-2 mW maximum output. These are from some
sort of barcode scanners. $1.50 each or
4 for $5.
LD1-2 As above but with clamp for collimating lens >10 $ 2.00
so it can be adjusted. $2 each or 3 for $5.
LD2-1 2-3 mW 670 nm laser diode in small block with 5 $ 3.00
screw adjustable collimating lens. Cute. :)
LD4-1 2-3 mW 670 nm laser diode in brass cylinder >10 $ 2.00
with collimator. This assembly appears to Pic
clamp the (probably) 9 mm LD in place so
it may be possible to replace it with one of
your own. Comes with driver PCB but I haven't
figured out the connections yet. The lens
is adjustable but saeled with adhesive.
$2 each or 3 for $5.
Here are some Uniphase uGreen lasers and accessories. Other parts may be
available. Email if interested.
Again this is on a BEST EFFORTS basis. I may ask you to sign a waiver
to this effect. If your laser is irreplaceable, go to a real laser
service company and pay the big bucks! For these lasers, other services
may be available and for other lasers discussed in the Laser FAQ but
not listed here, please ask. However, I will not deal with lasers
requiring three-phase AC power (if they can't be converted to single phase)
and/or a fork-lift to move! :)
Where only testing options are listed, repair or restoration may be available
on a time and materials basis. Please ask.
Special note to eBay (or other) sellers: To honestly represent what you
have available, it is really best to have it tested, and possibly
adjusted for optimum performance. Sure, you can sell it "As Is" or
"Powers Up but no further testing done". But if it's likely the
equipment does work, then being able to list test results will
bring in top dollar, easily 5X or 10X what the "as-is" high
bid would be! Please contact me for special
arrangements, trades, or other payment options on testing of lasers or
components. For example, I will consider deals that include part of
the payment based on net proceeds after auction expenses. Quantity
discounts also available.
And for buyers, it may be possible for you to negotiate to have testing
done with acceptable results as a condition of sale.
Note: I may have to add a combat surcharge to orders for these magnets.
Trying to pry them loose from their buddies is a real treat capable of
serious injury!
If in doubt about whether I might want that pallet of laser power supplies
you're about to send to the crusher, please ask! :) Even if I don't want
them, I may know someone who does - and even pay! I may be contacted via
the email link near the beginning of this document.
The following are in no particular order except maybe the first few with
most recent interests at the top:
Currently, I'm looking for "Smart Sensors" for the Coherent Fieldmaster,
dead or alive. Most useful would be a low to medium power VIS-NIR (say
up to 1 W) and a thermal sensor good up to 100 W CW. Other Fieldmaster
parts including a spare main unit. Also, Scientech thermal sensors and
readouts. And/or a sensor head for a Coherent model 213. All types
of laser power/energy meters and sensor heads for parts or repair.
Some specific items include:
Specifically, Pfeiffer/Balzers TPH/TPU-050/055/062 or similar small or
slightly larger turbo pump in operational condition or in almost any
condition for spare parts-and-show and tell. TCP-040/120/121 electronic
drive units. Replacement oil cartridge in usable condition for the
TPH/TPU-050 (probably doesn't exist anymore). Also, mating flange
for the TPU-050. Medium size turbo pump and controller as well.

Terms and Conditions
Questions and Ordering
I don't have a fancy shopping cart and checkout procedure that doesn't work
though Filip has been threatening to set something up :) so please contact me
initially via the Sci.Electronics.Repair FAQ
Lasers and Optics
Helium-Neon Lasers
Note: All output powers are actual measured values after about a
10 minute warmup, not CDRH safety ratings which may be much higher and
totally impossible to achieve under any conditions. Wavelength is 632.8 nm
(normal orange-red), and the beam is randomly polarized TEM00 (single
transverse mode) with normal divergence (1 to 2 mR), unless otherwise noted.
The listings are very roughly ordered from low to high power.
Complete HeNe Lasers
These include self-contained lasers as well as laser head/power supply
combinations. Also see "HeNe Laser Kits", below, for some low voltage DC
powered HeNe lasers. Note: For AC power supply bricks, a fast blow 1 amp fuse
is required for safety since there is no way to know if there is an internal
fuse. Add $5.00 to any of the AC input laser heads/power supply brick
combinations and I will include a fuse and line cord. Green and yellow
HeNe lasers listed after red ones.

Metrology HeNe Lasers and Accessories
These are mostly from HP/Agilent and Zygo. Lasers that meet manufacturer
specifications come with a minimum of a 90 day (3 month) warranty as noted.
This warranty can usually be extended to 180 days (6 months) for
an additional 10 percent of the laser's purchase price. All
others have at least a 10 day DOA warranty.
Feel free to make reasonable offers.
Trades (in addition to those listed below) of lasers, electronics, or
optics, may be considered to reduce the price. I will also test, adjust,

HP/Agilent Metrology HeNe Lasers and Accessories
Note 1: Unless otherwise noted, all of these lasers and laser tubes meet
HP/Agilent specifications. However, also unless otherwise noted, having
been used, they are recommended for applications where the laser is
turned on only when required or for testing, demonstration, education, and
research, not production lines like wafer fabs that are run 24/7.
Most have at least a 90 day warranty (and fingers crossed) I've yet to
have a warranty return. And I certainly don't expect them to keel over
at 91 days! :) But their useful life could be measured in many
years if only turned on when needed. For most applications, there is
no real benefit to leaving lasers like this on continuously if
not being used. Contact me for more specific suggestions on
extending the life of HP/Agilent metrology lasers.

or Toshiba LG-3217 polarized HeNe laser tube, Tubes, HVPCB
HENEHVB HV PCB, and an AC line (115 VAC) power
transformer that produces 700 VAC. Note that this
kit requires an external source of 12 to 15 VDC
(at low current) to run the laser which can
then be turned on and off with a TTL signal.
Makes a nice "everything visible" demo HeNe
laser. Hookup instructions will be included.
With the addition of a diode and capacitor,
the power transformer in the "A" versions can
provide the 12 to 15 VDC, and can be used for
other low voltage circuitry..
HENELSK-P1A Same as HENELSI-P1 but subtitutes multiple 2 $35.00
output power transformer with both HV and
LV windings. Heavier to ship though.
HENELSK-P2 HeNe Laser Kit P2. Similar to HENELSK-P1 but 1 $30.00

email me via the link at the top of this page. I may have it or know where
to get it. Or, ask you need a HeNe laser but don't know which one
would be suitable. Or, if you have a HeNe tube you'd like mounted in
a proper head cylinder, that can ba arranged.

slight multimode (LG01) profile - a dougnnut
shape with a faint dot in the center - not
pure TEM00 but the divergence is comparable to
that of a typical TEM00 laser. I think this is
by design as the laser heads are labelled 512MR
(12 mW, multimode, random polarized). :)
Laser head length is about 25 inches, tube
is about 19 inches. The extra space was
supposed to be for an internal power supply
but I didn't have one when I rebuilt this

to focus the lamp's filament into a narrow
glass tube that is between a pair of
compression fittings. A polished metal
parabolic reflector directs any scatter
into a UDT455 amplified photodiode. There
is also a yellow LED facing the sensor,
presumably for calibration, and some other
unidentified device facing the sample. Comes
with the original electronics board, untested.

HENEPS-A5A3 Aerotech model LSS 5 HeNe laser power supply, 1 $ 30.00
AC line version, 115 VAC only operation.
(The blue wire seems to be open.) This
one outputs 2,500 +/-200 V at 6.0 mA (fixed).
(Will work at lower voltage, not sure why
the specs are so fussy! HV wires, no Alden.
Size: 1-1/8" x 1-5/8" x 6-1/8".
HENEPSUP-1 Uniphase (really Laser Drive) HeNe laser power 1 $ 60.00
supply good for most 4 to 5 mW HeNe lasers.
Input: 115/230 VAC; output: 6.5 mA at 2,300 V,
fixed.
HENEPS-A5A12 Aerotech HeNe laser power supply for HENEATT1-12 1 $ 100.00
tube. It is designed to fit in the end of a
head cylinder and connect directly to the tube
but could be mounted in some other way with a
short wire. However, since the ballast is built
in, adding a long cable would require snother
small ballast resistor near the tube. The
output is 6.5 mA at around 3,200 V.
ML620PS1 Power supply from Metrologic ML620 HeNe laser. 1 $ 25.00
Use this to repair an ML620 or to build a
demonstration HeNe laser power supply with
all parts visible. This is a linear power
supply with HV transformer, regulator, rear
panel with switch, power light, and line
cord included. This power supply will
drive most 1 mW (rated) HeNe laser tubes
including the tube from the Melles Griot

Alden connector.
HENEPS-CO80 Coherent Model 80 HeNe laser power supply. 1 $ 30.00
Something like 2,500 V, 5 mA (fixed) but
1 or more of the potted regulator transistors
may be shorted since it doesn't seem to have
much compliance range and 2,500 is generally
higher than most HeNe lasers are spec'd for
5 mA. The starter works well and this would
be a good base for a test supply on a Variac.
HENEPS-S3A-1 Spectra-Physics model 253A/122 exciter. This 1 Make
is the power supply for some versions of the offer
Spectra-Physics model 122 laser. It's a
switchmode power supply that generates 225,
300, or 375 V p-p at about 22 kHz to drive a
a potted voltage multiplier/start module in
the laser head. If you have an SP-122 laser
and need this, you'll know exactly what it
is. Otherwise, the 253A exciter probably is
NOT very useful to you except maybe for the
classic blue Spectra-Physics case. :)
HENEPS-S3A-2 Spectra-Physics model 253A/124 exciter. Similar 1 Make

HENEMIRK1 HeNe Laser Mirror Kit 1. This is a set of >10 $ 30.00
at least 5 *unmounted* dielectric mirrors of
various radii of curvatures, both OCs and HRs.
These are especially good for experiments

with the one-Brewster lasers listed above.
HENEMIRK2 HeNe Laser Mirror Kit 2. This is a set of >10 $ 45.00
at least 8 *unmounted* mirrors including all
of the ones in HENEMIR1 and several others.
HENEOCM1-43 Mirrors useful for a scanning Fabry-Perot - $ 12.00
interferometer to display the longitudinal
modes structure of HeNe lasers. These mirrors
are 99.8%@633nm, RoC of 43 mm (side 1); planar,
AR@633nm (side 2); diameter of 7.75 mm. The
resulting FSR is 1.75 GHz for a confocal
SFPI configuration (c/4L). See the
sections of Sam's Laser FAQ starting with
Scanning Fabry-Perot Interferometers.
They may also be used as focusing mirrors
or as an OC mirror for an external mirror
HeNe laser but over a very limited range of
distances from a concave HR mirror. Bare
mirror, unused.
HENEOCM1-200 200 mm RoC (concave) OC mirror. Side 1: >10 $ 10.00
99%@633nm. Side 2: 63 mm, AR@633nm.
Diameter: 7.75 mm. New. These mirrors could
also be useful for a scanning Fabry-Perot
interferometers (SFPI). A confocal SFPI
would have an FSR of about 300 MHz
and resolution possibly better than 5 MHz.
HENEOCM1-250 250 to 300 mm RoC OC mirror from 1 mW HeNe laser >10 $ 7.50
tube, approximately 99% at 633 nm. These
will work (and are extremely easy to get
lasing) with the 1-B HeNe laser tubes
within about 2 inches of the Brewster window,
or from 60 cm to 90 cm from the HR. However,
planar, longer concave, or slightly convex
mirrors are probably better for general purpose
use. These mirrors could also be useful for a
scanning Fabry-Perot interferometers with an
FSR of about 200-250 MHz and resolution possibly
better than 2 MHz.
HENEOCM1-300 300 mm RoC (concave) OC mirror. Side 1: >10 $ 10.00

Diameter: 11 mm, thickness: 6 mm. New.
HENEOCM1-450 450 mm RoC (concave) OC mirror. Side 1: >10 $ 10.00
98-99%@633nm. Side 2: -(15-16) cm RoC

New.
HENEOCM-M1K Minus 1 to 2 meter (convex) RoC OC mirror for >10 $ 9.00
red HeNe laser. Approximately 98%@633nm.
These result in a stable resonator for lasers
with a concave HR, such as the 1-B tubes,
above. They will also work reversed through
the AR surface as concave mirrors with a slight
loss of power. Bare mirror, unused.
HENEHRM1-P Planar HR mirror from 1 mW HeNe laser tube. >10 $ 5.00
Bare or still in end-cap, your choice subject
to availability. These will work with
the 1-B laser tubes at any distance up to
about 60 cm from the 1-B's internal HR.
The bare mirrors are also useful as super
quality turning mirrors at up to about 45
degrees for tight beams (useful diameter
is 5 to 7 mm, bare mirror only).
HENEMRM3-P Planar 99.8%@633nm mirror, 7-8 mm. Bare - $ 6.00
mirror, unused. The reflectivity is
close to HR. Fine ground or planar
uncoated wedged rear surface, your
choice pending availability.
HENEOCM1-P Planar 98.8%@633nm OC mirror. Side 2: >10 $ 10.00
Planar, AR-coated, 7-8 mm. New. These
will work with the 1-B laser tubes at any
distance up to about 60 cm from the 1-B's
internal HR. They can also be used to
build scanning Fabry-Perot interferometers
which can be used at any FSR, though
finesse is lower than with the confocal
configuration, and alignment is a pain.

HENEMIRB1 HR mirror and Brewster window from Melles Griot 1 $ 15.00
05-LHB-570 1-B HeNe laser tube which was cracked.
The mirror and window are still attached to the
end-caps and easily handled.
HENEMIRHHR1 HR mirror assembly from Hughes 3184H HeNe laser 5 $ 6.00
head. These are planar HR mirrors with fine
ground rear surface installed in an aluminum
plate with 4 mounting holes. Easy to handle
but cleaning is possible if necessary.
HENEMIRHOC1 OC mirror assembly from Hughes 3184H HeNe laser 5 $ 10.00
head. These are 30 cm RoC mirrors, about 99
percent at 632.8 nm installed in an aluminum

but cleaning is possible if necessary.
HENECRX1 Dual line (cross) generator for 7 inch (1-2 mW) 1 $ 6.00
HeNe laser tube and adjustable optics in
ugly, but solid, metal box. NO laser tube
or power supply, though several of those

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HENEGRNX-1 Melles Griot 05-LGR-192 green HeNe laser tubes, 2 Make
0.1 to 0.5 mW. These are well below spec'd offer
power but guaranteed to lase. These are long
tubes (about 18 inches) requiring 2.75 kV (with
75K ohm ballast) at 6.5 mA. Good mirrors
HENEMGWH1A Melles Griot 05-LHR-151 head doing about 3 mW. 1 $ 7.50
HENEMGWT1A Melles Griot 05-LHR-151 or 05-LHP-151 or similar 2 $ 20.00
5 mW-class HeNe laser tube doing 4-5 mW. Good
for testing compatible HeNe laser power supplies!
HENEMGDT1A Dead/dying long red HeNe laser tubes. Melles 3 $ 5.00
Griot 05-LHR-991 or equivalent. End-of-life
tube lases weakly (1 mW or so with no warranty
on future life). Hard start and run. Salvage
the mirrors or power as high-tech eye-safe wall
sculpture.
HENEMGDT1B As above but 3227-HPC tube doing about 2.5 mW. 1 $ 5.00

HeNe Laser Parts for Repair or Salvage
Sam Part # Description Qty.Avl. Price/ea.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SP-120Y Spectra-Physics laser head with tube that will 1 $ 50.00
only run at 9 mA or higher and is hard-start.
3 mW output. Includes original cable.
SP-120X Spectra-Physics laser head with broken tube 1 $ 35.00
and no cable. Good (probably aligned)
mirrors and cosmetically decent condition.
PILDSLDR1 Complete slider assembly from Pioneer HeNe 1 $ 100.00
laser-based LD players like the models
LD-660, LD-1100, or PR-8210. Removed from
working equipment. Here's what you need to
revive your antique LD player. Though,
buying a complete LD player on eBay for
half this price would be a much more sane
approach. :)
PILDSLDR1A Slider above with original HeNe laser power 1 $ 120.00
supply.
HENEHVB Mystery HeNe laser power supply high voltage 10 $ 7.50
rectifier/filter/starter PCB. This is the Pic
HV PCB from a Pioneer LaserDisc player. It
includes a voltage doubler/filter capacitor
bank accepting 600-800 VRMS and producing
approximately 1,800-2,400 DC, a linear
regulator transistor, flyback transformer
boost/starter, and miscellaneous other
stuff. Schematic and wiring instructions
are available.
TRN725-1 AC line transformer for mystery HV PCB, above. 3 $ 8.00
725 VRMS at around 15-20 mA. Also has a
~33 VRMS centertapped low voltage winding,
probably 1 or 2 A. About 2-1/2" x 3" x 3-1/2".
Also would be good for an SSY1 or M60 ruby
laser capacitor charger/power supply.
TRN1650-1 AC line transformer for HeNe laser power supply. 10 $ 12.00
1,650 VRMS at 10 mA. Input: 115 VAC. Output:
No load voltage is approximately 1,850 VRMS.
The part number is 006-1003154, manufacturer
unknown. Size: 3-3/4" x 3-1/8" x 2-1/4".
NOS. Using one would be good for up to a 4-5 mW
laser, 2 for up to a 10-15 mW laser. Other uses
include capacitor charging for a pulsed laser
or strobe, electric fence :), etc. Two for $20.
HENEMGH4-HX Newly homeless Melles Griot polarized HeNe 5 $ 15.00
laser head from HENEMGH4s, but weak. These
only produce 2 to 6 mW after warmup (typical
is 3-4 mW). Complete assembly including
front and rear end-caps and 6 foot Alden
cable. It's possible that mirror tweaking
might result in another mW or so but probably
not something dramatic. Some samples also
tend to be hard to start. No guarantees on
anything other than that these heads do
lase and produce a nice TEM00 polarized
beam. Or consider it the perfect home for
your homeless 5-10 mW HeNe laser tube with
cathode-end output. Removing the tube intact
and reusing everything else is fairly easy.
This homeless head special includes USPS
shipping in the USA (or a shipping credit
if combined with other stuff). First come
first served for highest power. Quantity
discounts available. :)
HENEMGH4-TX Homeless tube only. These are all the 5 $ 10.00
way-cool Hughes style with mirror adjusters. Diagram Pic
front and rear, removed from HENEMGH4 laser
heads. Includes USPS shipping in the USA
or shipping credit. Quantity discounts
available. :) The 16.3" black aluminum
head cylinder (no end-caps) may be requested
for a whopping $1 extra.
HENESP120-2 Spectra-Physics model 120 HeNe laser 1 $ 75.00
head. Weak. Peaks at about 3 mW at 7 mA.
No power supply. Nice solid resonator.
I don't believe this is a problem with
dirty optics or alignment - there is
no getter spot.
HENEMNT1 Aluminum mounting brackets for 05-LHR-911 laser - $ 5.00
heads or anything else with an outside diameter
of ~1-3/8" diameter. Price/ea. is for a set of 2.
HENEMNT2 Aluminum mounting brackets for normal diameter 4 $ 10.00
Melles Griot and other HeNe lasers with an
outside diameter of ~1-3/4". Price/ea. is for
a set of 2. (Two sets available.)
HENEMNT3 Similar to above but have a spring and fine 4 $ 15.00
thread screw to allow the height to be
adjusted over a range of at least 1/4". Price/ea.
is for a set of 2. (Two sets available.)
HENESHUT1 Solenoid operated beam shutter that will 1 $ 10.00
screw directly to the end-cap of a Melles
Griot or similar laser. 24 VDC coil,
continuous duty.
HENELPS1-X HeNe low power homeless tube special 1. 5 $ 7.00
Weak Uniphase 098 or Spectra-Physics 088
0.3 to 0.7 mW. Includes shipping. Or,
just $3.00 with any other order over $25.
At the very least you get $10 worth of
good mirrors. I don't know what chants are
required to pacify the gods of dead lasers
if I salvaged the mirrors from these since
the output power is so low. :) They have
good discharge color but mirror alignment won't
help. So if you want a laser tube that looks
and acts like a laser tube but is just tired
from long hours of lasing and guaranteed to
be Class 2 and eye safe for demos, these are
for you! Two for $10.
HENELPS2-X HeNe low power homeless tube special 2. 3 $ 25.00
Tube similar to Melles Griot 05-LHR-150
or 05-LHP-150 (your choice subject to
availability) doing 4 to 5 mW after
warmup. Could be 05-LHR-140 or
05-LHP-140 in which case they even meet
spec. Includes shipping in the USA.
HENELPS3-X HeNe hard start and/or hard run 05-LHR-640 - $ 2.50
very cute 0.5 mW HeNe lsaer tube. These
produce at least 0.5 mW (most do somewhat
more) but due to long hours slaving away
in some sort of measurement instrument, have
a higher than normal operating voltage,
some may also be slightly hard to start and,
there is likely to be significant brown
crud in the bore. But they will work on a
05-LPM-379 or similar power supply with
a 75K ballast resistor close to the tube.
One free tube upon request with any other
order over $25.
HENENWS1-X NON-WORKING (up to air) Siemens LGK-7641, - $ 1.00
Spectra-Physics 088, or Uniphase 098, 10 inch
HeNe laser tubes. Good mirrors, but at this
price, you'll have to provide your own chants
to the gods of dead lasers if you want to
remove them. :). Note: RoC of OC mirror is
probably 30 cm or less, not very good for use
with 1-B HeNe laser tubes except very close
to the B-window, but might be suitable
for a Scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer.
HENEMGH1-X Melles Griot 05-LHR-911 laser head. Includes 3 $ 10.00
front end-cap with shutter and short cable
but no Alden connector. Low or no output
but I will guarantee that mirror alignment
will get you at least 1 mW, possibly as much
2 mW. Requires drilling 3 holes in cylinder
opposite front mirror adjusting screws.
I'm just too lazy to bother but it really is
just a 10 minute job with a drill press and
hex wrench. And since it's the cathode-end
mirror that needs to be adjusted, no shocking
experiences (usually). :) Or, at this price,
just salvage the mirrors for your 1-B laser
tube (but I don't want to know).
HENENLX1 Weird beam 1 mW HeNe laser tube. The beam is 2 $ 3.00
weird because the outer surface of the OC
mirror is broken. The tube lases just fine
with rated power, the beam is just strange.
You could sand it down and have an even more
strange constellation of dots generator.
Or, consider it an eye-safe HeNe laser! :)
HENESP132-X1 Spectra-Physics 132 laser complete but 1 $ 15.00
not functional due to bad tube.
HENESP132-X2 Spectra-Physics 132 laser complete but 1 $ 25.00
tube only starts when finger is applied
And goes out after warmup due to high
dropout current (or something). Decent
power when it runs.
HENESP155-P1 New (NOS) power supply board for SP-155 1 $ 10.00
laser (only the assembled PCB, not the
transformer).
HENESP155-P2 Same as above but used, tested. 1 $ 7.50
NEHESP155-NT Good SP-155 case with all parts but tube. 1 $ 15.00
HENESP155-C Slightly bedraggled SP-155 case, no tube, 1 $ 6.00
transformer, or power supply board. Good
for installing your own laser project.
HENESP907-X1 Spectra-Physics model 907 HeNe laser tube 1 $ 175.00
assembly (same as used in SP-127 laser.) It
is doing about 20 mW after warmup. Rated at
25-35 mW. Proper cleaning of Brewster windows
and mirrors should help some. Rewired with
standard Alden connector. Will run on
modified SP-255 exciter.
HENES7676-X1 Siemens LGK-7676 HeNe laser tube assembly 1 $ 175.00
(similar to SP-907). It is doing about 16-18
mW after warmup. Rated at 25-35 mW. Proper
cleaning of Brewster windows and mirrors
should help some. Rewired with standard Alden
connector. Will run on modified SP-255
exciter.
HENE-CYL1 Aluminum cylinders (no end-caps) from various - $ 1.00
HeNe lasers from 7 to 12 inches in length,
1.75 inches in diameter. Most are in excellent
condition. Ask.
HENE-CYL2 Same as above but 13 to 25 inches in length. - $ 2.00
HENE-HEAD1 Complete laser head minus the tube. This is a 1 $ 7.50
rather unusual size - for mounting a 1" or less
diameter up to 8-1/4" long tube, cathode-end
output. 1" outside diameter. With front
end-cap (no shutter), rear end-cap with 2 foot
Alden cable and internal ballast resistor.
The following, shall we say, may have some problems. OK, they have more
problems than some of the others. :) These are various HeNe laser
tubes/heads that don't work properly for one reason or another but
may be of use for organ donations or recycling into your home-built laser
or high-tech wall hanging. In some case, they may be repairable.
SP-120-X SP-120 laser heads. Good resonator with 633 nm 2 $ 15.00
mirrors, NO tube or broken tube, NO or cut
cable, fair-good overall condition.
HENEDT3-1 Melles Griot 05-LGR-024 green HeNe laser tube. 1 $ 20.00
Up to air (won't start). For mirrors only.
HENE1BDT1 Non-working Melles Griot 05-LHB-570 one-Brewster 2 $ 10.00
laser tube. Ionizes but sputter overcoat on
Brewster window due to loose cathode or
reverse polarity. Good HR. Brewster window
may be salvageable but will require removal
of sputtered aluminum coating from the *inside*.
HENEDT4-0 Melles Griot 05-LHR-926 or similar extremely 2 $ 35.00
long (~1m) HeNe laser tube with hairline crack
in cathode-end frit seal. Perfect cosmetic
condition otherwise. Glob on some Torr-seal
and fill with gas but may need alignment. :)
HENEDT4-1 Extremely long (over 1 meter) HeNe laser tube 1 $ 35.00
of conventional design, hard-seal, gas intact
and starts and runs with perfect discharge
color but output is less than 1 mW and
and fluctuates, and mirror alignment is VERY
critical. With the addition of a series of
Zeeman suppression magnets, I would imagine
that you could get a few mW but almost
certainly no where near the 35 mW rating.
This is NOT a mirror alignment problem
but either a gas-fill or incorrect mirror
formula. Perfect physical conition.
HENEDT4-1A Same as above except has punch through at 1 $ 50.00
anode. Excellent cosmetic condition.
Won't lase, but will light up on small
HeNe laser power supply. (Discharge
snakes along outside the bore.) Makes
interesting high tech sculpture.
HENEDT4-2 Very long (about 0.8 meter) HeNe laser tube 1 $ 25.00
of segmented design, hard-seal but up to
air. With a segemented tube, the
bore is split into sections - this may
improve the distribution of the gas or
something and in any case looks cool. Tube
would be rated 15 to 25 mW if operational.
HENEDT4-3 Medium (about 0.6 meter) HeNe laser tube of 1 $ 15.00
conventional design, hard-seal but up to air
as above. Tube would be rated 12 to 15 mW
if operational. This tube was removed from an
Aerotech HENEATH1-12 head (see above).
HENEDT5-1 Very long (about 0.8 meter) HeNe laser tube 1 Make
of segmented design with cathode in side-arm. offer
Soft-seal has leaked over time. Ionizes but
does not lase. OC mirror has screws for
alignment. Brewster window seal between
interior and outer chambers. Interesting
display piece. The model is probably LS16P.
HENESP124-X NON-WORKING Spectra-Physics model 124 laser 1 $ 75.00
head, needs new tube or refill. Good optics.
Older blue case, very good condition overall.
No cable.
HENESP127-B Bore ONLY from SP-127 tube. No electrodes 1 $ 25.00
(hole where anode pin should be), Brewster
window still present at that end. Fairly
clean (almost no brown crud). Use for PMG
laser experiments or a cattle prod. :)
The following are only good for boat anchors or architectural use unless you
have a way of removing hard potting material without damaging components
underneath, and then repairing whatever is wrong. I have no idea why I'm
even saving them. Maybe as ballast to get traction in snow. :)
HENEPS-ADE Dead AC input HeNe laser power supply bricks, - $ 0.00
various models. All wires are cut so there is
really nothing salvageable on the outside
except maybe some labels. I can't imagine
why anyone would want these but people do
buy used dirt on eBay so I guess almost
anything's possible. :) Perfect for testing
your magic Epoxy dissolvo formula! Just
pay for shipping - 10 or 15 should fit in
a USPS flat rate Priority Mail box.
HENEPS-DDE Same as above but DC input. - $ 0.00

supply, new. 100+ mW at 488 nm, TEM00. Set
up for 230 VAC with dryer socket adapter, but
may be configured to run on 115 VAC. These
heads have interchangeable optics so mirrors
can be replaced to get 514.5 nm or multiline.
HGMMIR1 Coherent/HGM OC mirror. 2 meter RoC, >10 $ 7.50
97-98%R, tested at 488 nm and 532 nm,

SYNR48-2 Synrad 48-2 CO2 laser tube *only*. NO DRIVER. 1 Make
This is supposedly new from the early 1990s, offer
outputting 35+ watts, but didn't meet stability

LD-SDL2360C Uniphase C-mount laser diode model SDL-2360-C. >10 $ 125.00
1.2 watt, 808nm.
LD808-1A C-mount laser diode, wavelength 808 nm nominal, 10 $ 100.00
multimode, at least 1.2 W max, appears to be
100 um stripe. Threshold: 320 to 360 mA,
slope efficiency: 0.9 to 1.1, power out at
1 A: 600 to 700 mW. These were probably for
Uniphase uGreen lasers. A similar diode
was installed as a replacement in a uGreen
4301 laser and worked well. Beam shoots
away from mounting surface. C-mount is
positive. I believe these to be the same
as the SDL-2360-Cs but they have no model
number.
LD808-1B Similar to above but might be slightly outside 5 $ 75.00
Uniphase's spec on center wavelength at 25 °C
but should be easily temperature tuned to
808 nm.

LDBC-1 Polarization beam combiner for IR Uniphase (SDL) 1 Make
laser diodes in the "P" package. This consists offer
of mounts with heatsinks for two SDL-2372 or Pic
similar laser diodes oriented at right angles
to each-other, beam expanders and anamorphic
prism pairss for beam correction, collimators
on Newport XYZ micropositioners, a turning
mirror on a Newport MM1 mount to redirect and
fine tune alignment of them, a polarizing beam
splitter (to combine the beams), and a focusing
lens also on a Newport XYZ positioner. DIODES
NOT INCLUDED. This probably cost someone (like
you, a US tax payer!) several thousand dollars
to build!

Electrical connections and heatsink for
SDL/JDSU P1/2/3 1 to 5 W laser diode

mount with numerous beam shaping and
collimating optics, and photodiode power
monitor. Wiring info will be provided.
The laser diode is in a can package and
can be replaced relatively easily.
Includes a Crystal Technology AOM and
RF driver but I could not get this unit
to do anything to the beam, though the
driver appears to work. The laser diode
mount alone is worth at least the price.

anything.
BSC-RED-1 4 mm polarizing beam splitter cube for 5 $ 20.00
HeNe lasers and other red lasers.
Design wavelength of 650 nm but works
works well at 632.8 nm. This should
work well for combining two high power

C532-400-X C532-400 green DPSS "fixer upper". :) 1 $ 1,600.00
This may have been a prototype. It is
prefect single longitudinal mode at all
power levels indicating that the ring
laser cavity is in good condition. The
main problem is that the TEC inside the
pump diode package is faulty and can't
maintain the set temperature for more
than 1/2 hour even at an output power of
only 50 mW, much less at higher power.
Includes NOS SDL-2382 replacement diode.
Some assembly required. This is not for
the casual laser hobbyist. Replacing and
aligning the pump diode requires a degree
of skill, patience, and experience. And,
there is the risk of irrepairable damage
due to carelessness or just bad luck.
But success could result in one of the best
holography lasers with a half watt or more
output power. Inquire for details.
If replacing the diode was fun, I would
have done it and then be selling this laesr
for $5000.
LWE125-1 Lightwave Electronics M125-1313-030 fiber- 1 $ 250.00
coupled 1313 nm multimode laser. This was Pic 1 2 3 4 5
some sort of special order from LWE. Even
though it has the M125 model number and is
in a mint condition M125 case, it is
NOT an NPRO but a monolithic YLF FP cavity
pumped by a C-mount laser diode. It is
therefore multi-longitudinal mode. The
output is over 10 mW (30 mW when new).
More may be possible by turning up the
pump diode current via the internal pot.
The output is via a permanently attached
single mode fiber feeding a collimator
producing a very nice ~2 mm TEM00 beam.
The price is negotiable. Interesting
experimenters' item, or if you need
1313 nm. Mint physical condition.
AL-1320-1 Amoco 1320 nm DPSS laser, 60+ mW TEM00 beam. 1 $ 950.00
Includes laser head, umbilical, and power unit. Pic
The laser head is fan-cooled with TEC
for temperature control. Stable within a few
seconds of power-on. I believe this is capable
of much higher power since there is a fan
attached to the laser head (powered separately,
DC wall adapter not included) but it is not
needed at the power level at which the laser
is set.
LE-374QT Laser Export model LCM-DTL-374QT Q-switched 1 Make
UV (355 nm) DPSS laser for PARTS OR REPAIR. offer
This is a 200Hz-1kHz actively Q-switched
freqency tripled diode pumped YAG laser
with an average pulse energy of 20 uJ
with a pulse width of 3 to 7 ns. This
laser has a power supply problem and thinks
that the DC input voltage is out of range.
The laser head is almost certainly in
good condition, as is most of the power
supply and the AO Q-switch driver module,
which is self contained. Laser Export
is a Russian company but most or all of
the electronic components are of Western
manufacture. This laser is in excellent
physical condition and rather well made.
If nothing else, it has 2 laser diodes,
an Nd:YAG crystal, 2 NLO crystals, an
AO Q-switch and driver, 1 or 2 TECs,
mirrors and other optics, and a bunch of
other neat stuff. :) If you don't mind
diving into the electronics, the problem
is probably near the power input as it's
flashing the "power out of range" error
code, which means that the controller is
alive. Or attach the laser head to a
working controller. If you have a
DPSS lab controller (diode+TEC), then
the laser head could be driven without
the broken controller. It may be
possible to trigger it at up to 5 times
the spec'd rate for 100 mW or more of UV
output. I've almost talked myself into
not selling and attempting to make work.
DPSS Laser Parts and Accessories
Here are some Compass-M (Coherent C215M, C315M, and C415M) accessories.
For the blank printed circuit
boards (PCBs), Jameco has all of the additional parts, which should be
under $5 for any of them, much less if you have a moderately well stocked
junk drawer. However, for Autostart Adapter 2, a complete kit is available.
IMPORTANT: We will not be liable if your laser is damaged due to poor
soldering skills or incorrect assembly!

optic but the back of the mount would have
to be drilled if it were necessary to pass
the beam through it.
MMNT2-1 3/4" x 3/4" high quality front surface mirror 10 $ 15.00
on slightly larger adjustable mount. These Pic 1 - Front/Bottom
are actually reasonably precise, if cheaply Pic 2 - Rear>
made, spherical mounts. Spherical means that
the center of the mirror surface maintains a
nearly constant position along the optic
axis when the mirror is adjusted. The only
problem is that the base is tilted at about
a 5 degree angle so to get the full range,
a piece of scrap metal has to be wedged under
one side. Center of mirror is ~3/4" from
mounting surface.
MMNT3-1 1-1/2" x 1-7/16" high quality front surface 4 $ 35.00
on kinematic mount. Hex screw adjustments Pic
from rear. May be attached to Newport post
or flat plate.
MMNT4-1 1" x 1-1/2" high quality front surface mirror 1 $ 15.00
on mount with tilt adjustment. Pic
DICON-1 Dicon Fiber optics, Inc. model S-FDDI-62-ST-B 1 $ Make
2X2 fiber optic switch. Electromechanical offer
selection of straight or cross fiber Pic
connection. 62.5/125 um fiber (approximately
8 inch length each) with ST connectors. New
(NOS). Also includes 10 meters of FDDI fiber
pair with ST connectors at one end and FDDS?
connector assembly at the other end as well as
one set of transmitter and receiver modules.
DICON-2 Same as above but pulled from prototype unit. 1 $ Make
No cables. offer
OPINTRP1 Optical interrupter. 3/8" width x 3/8" 4 $ 2.50
depth with cable. This is an IR LED/
photodiode pair, no active circuitry.
MOUNT1-1 Giant size alignment mount. Two 1/4-20 nuts for 4 $ 25.00
pan, 1 for tilt, 1/4-20 hex screws to adjust X
and Y with lock. Made of 5/16"-3/8" thick black
anodized (I think, may just be good paint) milled
aluminum, about 5x7 inches overall. Adjustment
range about 1/2" on all screws. This isn't what
you'd call really precise (thus I don't call
them mirror mounts) but would be ideal for that
HeNe or diode alignment laser or indeed for the
mirrors in that huge CO2 or Copper vapor laser
you're building! Originally intended for the
mounting of lasers for patient positioning in
radiation therapy simulators. Note: No center
hole - you need to drill one through all four
(4) plates if needed.
MOUNT1-2 Same as above but missing the X or Y adjustment. 2 $ 20.00
FRIGIT-IO Frigitronics indirect ophthalmoscope made by 1 Make
Cooper Surgical. Very good condition except offer
for top adjustment on headband which still
works but the plastic is cracked. Includes
head unit, extension cable with switch, and
variable intensity power supply for light.
The power supply might be useful for something
but other than that, if you don't know what
this is, I guarantee you won't want it unless
you'd like to give a nice Christmas present
to your eye doctor! And he/she may not want
it. :)
Barcode Scanners and Parts
Lasers and power supplies from barcode scanners (including the complete
very cute HeNe laser from the Metrologic MH290 hand-held scanner) are
listed in the sections for HeNe Lasers and Diode Lasers, above. The
items listed below are more barcode scanner related.
Sam Part # Description Qty.Avl. Price/ea.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IBM4687 IBM 4687 barcode checkout scanner with 1 $ 100.00
Spectra-Physics electronic scale (30 pound max
in 0.01 pound resolution). This is a full size
heavy undercounter unit. Includes 1 mW HeNe
laser tube (Siemens 7641S or Uniphase 098-1,
see the info and photos for these tubes, above),
with PSU on mainboard, polygon scanner, many
mirrors, lenses, and other optics, etc.
Well worn but believed fully functional
(It bleeps appropriately and the scale reads
reasonably accurately.) You may have to
scrape off some congealed chicken juice
though. :) Pickup in Philadelphia area only.
IBM4687-MB Mainboard from IBM4687. I have been scavanging 1 $ 15.00
parts from the HeNe laser power supply so the
main things left are the power transformer and
low voltage power supply and barcode scanner
control and readback electronics. :)
IBM4781 Hand-held barcode scanner, LED type. Red 1 $ 10.00
filter is missing from front. For parts
or experimentation. IBM part #96X4781.
Hand unit only. Untested.
BCSSCAN1 Scanner mirror assembly from Orion barcode - $ 20.00
scanner. Includes motor, control PCB, and Pic 1 Pic 2 Pic 3
6 mirror scanner (6 line raster scan - NOT
like a laser printer scanner!). Easy to
Power. See Specs and Wiring Info.
Although designed for 24 VDC to the motor,
they will run happily using only 12 VDC for
both the logic and motor. An external pot
can be added to extend the speed range from
near 0 rpm to over 4,000 rpm. Detailed
instructions provided.
And as evident in in the final pic, the mirror Pic 4
assembly can be removed with some difficulty
and then the motor can be used for something
else. The individual mirrors can also be
carefully unglued after removing the plastic
plugs at the top.
Whimpier scanner motor assemblies are sold on
eBay for much more, intended for laser show
"liquid sky" effects.
BCSSCAN2 Scanner mirror assembly from IBM IBM 4687 - $ 15.00
barcode scanner. Includes motor, control PCB, Top Bottom
and 3 mirror scanner (3 line raster scan - NOT
like a laser printer scanner!). Easy to
power on 15 to 20 VDC. Speed can be varied
by controlling input voltage to one pin
but is not regulated like that of BCSSCAN1..
The type on the left is most likely what you
will receive since it's much more common
(nuts and bolts feet not included.)
NCR7870P Parts from NCR 7870 barcode scanner includes 1 $ 15.00
laser diode, driver, and collimator; 3 sided
scanner, motor, and driver; photodetector;
LD and main PCBs, etc. No mirrors (except
for scanner), chassis, or docs. Untested.

interferometer head, 7.5 GHz FSR, 850 to offer
920 nm mirror set. Includes micrometer Pic 1 2 3
adjustment kinematic pan-tilt mount.
With photodetector and cables. Head
only, will work with most SFPI controllers.
Mint condition. If you use a Ti:Sapph
laser, you need this. But mirrors can
be swapped for other wavelengths. Serious
offers only, I know its value and what it
would cost new.
SP476-3 Spectra-Physics 476 scanning Fabry-Perot 1 $ 375.00
controller (high voltage ramp generator
and photodiode preamp). This unit
Will work with the TO-SA7.5, above,
and most other HV PZT-driven SFPIs.
Very good cosmetic condition but no
handle. Includes operation and service
manual. Design for triple bias/gain trim
add-on available.
SP481A-2 Spectra-Physics 481A dye laser etalon 1 $ 475.00
controller. This includes the functions Front Back
of the SP-476 SPFI driver and is thus
useful without a dye laser. Only the
SP-476 functions have been tested.
This unit is in better cosmetic condition
than the one in the photos but lacks a
handle.
BRC-42-1 Burleigh RC-42 high voltage ramp driver 1 $ 375.00
with bias/gain trim for triple PZT stacks. Front Back
OUtput up to 1,000 V. Includes pinouts

bimorph actuator). Mint condition.
CO-LASALIGN Coherent "Lase-A-Lign" autocollimator. 1 $ 1000.00
The incandescent lamp has been replaced Overall Closeup Case
with a high brightness white LED on an
adjustable wall adapter. Very good
condition, though the original wooden
case could use some new varnish.
SP-405-1 Spectra-Physics Model 405 wide range laser 1 $ 1500.00
power meter. Pyroelectric sensor with 100 W Range
internal chopper. Ranges from 1 mW to
100 WATTs full scale in 1, 3, 10, sequence.
Designed for CW lasers but will also handle
quasi-CW and some repetitive low energy
Q-switched lasers. Both digital and analog
readouts simultaneously. In near mint
condition with stand and manual.
WA-10-L-1 Burleigh WA-10-L wavemeter. 0.4 to 1.0 um 1 $ 1500.00
spec'd, but will go further. This is Front 1 Front 2 Back Side
similar to the WA-20, above, but does
not have the vacuum vessel so slightly
less accurate away from 633 nm. The -L
is the "Low Resolution" option, which
permits use with lasers having a linewidth
of up to 200 GHz which makes it suitable
for many diode lasers, something not
possible with other instruments. (It may be
possible to convert to standard version.)
No adjustable feet. Very good condition,
aligned and tested.

TSI-200 TSI Model 250100 "Laser Speed" laser head unit. 1 $ 100.00
This appears to be some type of TOF laser Pic 1 Pic 2
speed sensor and/or rangefinder using a
pulsed diode laser. Absolute mint physical
condition but totally untested. Includes
nifty optics and electronics as shown. Or,
install your laser project in the very
nicely machined case!
NLO-1 Mystery non-linear crystal with oven. This is 1 Make
a ~3x3x20 mm crystal with one end at a 15-20 offer
degree angle. That end appears AR-coated Pic
possibly for green. The other end is at
90 degrees and either uncoated or with a
damaged coating. There is some mottling.
The oven is matched to its dimensions and
seems to have a pair of 100 ohm heaters
and a 10K thermistor sensor. It has been
suggested that this is for THG, but no
other information is available.
LW-SS100 Laserworks SS100 X-Y scanner unit. This very 1 $ 100.00
nice 4x4x4 inch black anaodized aluminum Front Back
box includes a pair of low speed scanners
with broadband aluminized mirrors, a beam
shutter, and emission LED. Input to the
scanners is up to 5 V with a bandwidth of
perhaps 10 Hz at full voltage; 50-100 Hz
at 1 V. Designed for a HeNe laser but
would work with any other narrow (1 or 2 mm)
beam. The beam enters through a ~1/4"
hole on the side 1-7/8" from bottom. There
is a standard 1/4-20 tapped hole for mounting.
This looks more like someone's high school
science fair project than a commercial
unit except for the professional labels and
that it is covered by U.S. patent: 4316648.
It should be quite useful and in a nice
box. :)
ILS-106 LiNbO3 Pockels Cell crystal. Appears to be 1 Make
new (NOS) in original box. Approximately offer
1x1x2.5cm with gold electrodes on opposite
long faces. I assume this is for 1064 nm.
INRAD part #ILS-106.
AVATAR-1 Optics module from Avatar 360 KBR FTIR 1 $ 25.00
spectrometer BROKEN. The diagonal crystal/
mirror assembly was shattered and has been
removed. Everything else is in perfect

18 square mm (approximately 3x6mm). Suitable
for general purpose visible and near-IR
detection, and low cost laser power meters
capable of measuring uW to 10s of mW. The
photodiode alone will be linear up to about
5 mW.
LHi958 Heimann LHi-958 dual pyroelectric sensors 10 $ 5.00
with IR filter and internal source follower.
These are sensitive in the mid to far-IR and
are used for things like motion detectors.
TO5 package, new old stock, never used.
See: LHi-958 Datasheet (Perkin Elmer).
JONES-15 15 pin FEMALE Jones plug, used with short 1 $ 5.00
wires attached. This is the mate to some
NEC, Spectra-Physics, and other air-cooled
argon ion laser heads.
Laser Testing/Repair Services
I will attempt on a best efforts basis the following types of
testing, adjustment, or repair on laser equipment. Quantity discounts
may be available and prices may be negotiable. Payment in equipment
rather than $$$ may also be possible. The customer is responsible for
shipping both ways, including pickup for larger lasers like the LWE-221.
HeNe Laser Service
Sam Part # Description Price/ea.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HENESRVC Testing and mirror alignment (if necessary) of most
HeNe lasers:
* Test any internal mirror HeNe laser. This means determining
gas integrety, gas fill condition, starting, and likely
cause of lasing problems (if any), as well as test of power
supply if present, and determination of operating and dropout
current (where relevant). Minor mirror alignment (i.e., peaking
power) is included if disassembly not required.
- Small (less than 10 mW red). $ 25.00
- Medium (10 to 20 mW red). $ 50.00
- Large (20 to 35+ mW red). $ 100.00
* Same for external mirror HeNe lasers:
- Small (e.g., SP-120, SP-122). $ 100.00
- Large (e.g., SP-124, SP-127, Siemens/LASOS LGK7676). $ 250.00
(Must be sent in shipping carton that can be used for
return journey - minimum of 6 inches of padding all
around.)
Testing of similar physical size "other color" (including IR)
HeNe lasers at same rates.
* Major mirror alignment for HeNe lasers: Cost above, plus
time at $100/hour. This generally means there is no
lasing and both mirrors may be misaligned. Obviously, this
won't be worth it for most lower power HeNe lasers. And,
there could of course be other problems.
* Testing of most one-Brewster HeNe laser tubes using 99% OC $ 75.00
mirror or customer supplied mirror.
* Testing of most one-Brewster HeNe lasers. Includes optics $ 100.00
cleaning and alignment.
* Testing of PMS/REO or other small tunable HeNe lasers. $ 150.00
Includes optics cleaning and alignment.
* Testing of most stabilized single or dual mode HeNe lasers $ 125.00
like the Aerotech Syncrolase 100, Coherent 200, Melles
Griot 05-STP-901 or 05-STP-909/910/911/912, Spectra-
Physics 117/118/A/B/C, more.
* Testing of Laboratory for Science model 200 ultra stable $ 175.00
ultra stable HeNe laser.
* Testing of Laboratory for Science model 220 or 260 ultra $ 255.00
stable HeNe laser.
* Testing of HeNe laser power supplies.
- Small (up to 3,500 V or for 15 mW HeNe laser). $ 25.00
- Large (including SP-255, SP-207). $ 50.00
* Hard start modification to enable Spectra-Physics model $ 50.00
155 and similar HeNe lasers that are hard to start to start
reliably.
Note: For this to work, laser must stay on reliably but
simply be hard to start cold or hot.
* Installation of replacement tube or power supply in HeNe
lasers including stabilized HeNe lasers. Cost will depend
on cost and availability of suitable parts, and the labor
required for replacement, cleaning and alignment (if
needed) and testing.
Metrology Laser Service
These are single-frequency or two-frequency HeNe lasers used in semiconductor
wafer steppers, measurement and calibration systems, and other metrology
applications. Manufacturers include Hewlett Packard/Agilent, Excel, Zygo,
Mark-Tech, and others. For resellers, being able to state that, for example,
an HP-5517C laser is "working and meets HP/Agilent specs with warranty" as
opposed to "as-is, untested", can result in a selling price 10 times higher.
I am set up to do quantity testing of these lasers, as well as many types
of repairs. In addition, if you have a rebuilt metrology laser (or suspect
that you do) or are a supplier of rebuilt metrology lasers, I am equipped
to perform extensive testing to determine if it/they meet original manufacturer
specifications. Inquire for more information or for lasers not listed
below. Proposals welcome.
Sam Part # Description Price/ea.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Basic testing of most single-frequency metrology lasers like
Axsys/Teletrac 150 (all versions) and Mark-Tech 7900/10.
Depending on the specific model laser, testing includes
locking performance, output power, mode balance, optical
beam quality, and evaluation in an interferometer.
First laser $ 175.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 150.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 125.00
The prices for multiple lasers includes the *option* of
swapping parts to make as many working lasers from them
as possible which meet manufacturer specifications.
Parts swap on a labor basis at $100/hour. (Typically
less than 1 hour per laser, first hour free.)
* Extended testing of Axsys/Teletrac, Mark-Tech, and
selected other single-frequency metrology lasers.
Everything in basic testing plus 8 hour stability
measurements, and checking for any anomalous behavior
that may result in problems in an actual application.
First laser $ 350.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 325.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 275.00
* Basic testing of most two-frequency metrology lasers like
HP/Agilent-5501A/B, all 5517s including A/B/C/DL/E/FL/GL,
5518A, 5519A/B, Zygo 7701/02/12/14/22/24, Excel, Optra,
Excel, Optra, PLASMA, more. Depending on the specific model
laser, testing includes locking performance, output power,
mode balance, optical signal quality, and evaluation in an
interferometer.
First laser $ 225.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 175.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 150.00
The prices for multiple lasers includes the *option* of
swapping parts to make as many working lasers from them
as possible which meet manufacturer specifications.
Parts swap on a labor basis at $100/hour. (Typically
less than 1 hour per laser, first hour free.)
* Extended testing of HP/Agilent 5501A/B and all 5517, 5518,
and 5519 metrology lasers. Everything in basic testing
plus 8 hour stability measurements, and checking for any
anomalous behavior that may result in problems in an
actual application.
First laser $ 450.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 375.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 325.00
* Extended testing of Zygo 7701 and 7702 lasers. Everything
in basic testing plus 24 hour log to check for random
mode flip or other erroneous behavior. (Price is per unit.)
First laser $ 550.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 475.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 425.00
* Repair of "flickering tube syndrome" in 5501B, all 5517, $ 650.00
5518A, 5519A/B. This will restore stable output if
the laser power is still satisfactory. If laser is not
salvageable with either the power being too low or
requiring too much tube current to be stable, the charge
will only be for evaluation. Anecdotal evidence suggests
that this will allow the laser to be usable for a minimum
of several months in continuous operation or *years* if
only turned on when needed.
* Repair of "flickering tube syndrome" in 5500A/C, and Ask
5501A.
* HP/Agilent or Excel laser REF frequency reduction surgery. $ 325.00
This will allow a laser whose REF frequency is either out
of spec (due to being high mileage), or is simply higher
than required to work in a finicky machine, to
be put back into service. For the outcome to be
successful, the laser must be otherwise healthy with
acceptable output power, and reliable and stable
locking. What's done is totally reversible if needed.
* Basic testing of refurbished or rebuilt HP/Agilent, or
Zygo, or other metrology lasers. "Refurbished or
rebuilt" means work done to the laser which may involve
installation of a new non-original tube, or regasing
of the tube. This includes the same tests as for
virgin :) metrology lasers, above, as well as specific
tests for parameters that might be suspect in rebuilt
lasers.
First laser $ 275.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 225.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 175.00
* Extended testing of refurbished or rebuilt HP/Agilent
metrology lasers.
First laser $ 500.00
Each of two similar lasers $ 350.00
Each of three or more similar lasers $ 250.00
* Testing, evaluation, cleaning, and repair of most Ask
HP/Agilent/Excel/Zygo interferometer optics.

Diode Laser Service
Sam Part # Description Price/ea.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LDTEST Laser diode testing. Includes threshold, slope
efficiency, 5-10 point listing of current versus
output power from threshold to rated power, calibration
of monitor photodiode (if present), and burn-in at
rated power (if requested). These prices assume
specifications are known! Determining unknown diode
specs including wavelength is extra. :) All testing
performed using LDC-3900 laser diode controller with
TEC temperature control except for really high power
diodes (requiring more than 4 amps) which is done with my
custom-built 100 amp laser diode driver and tap water
cooling. This applies to bare (e.g., can or C-mount),
collimated, or fiber-coupled diodes with 2 to 4 pins;
those with built-in TECs or other options may be extra
based on time to construct wiring harness.
* Nichia blue/violet (all). $ 50.00
* Low power red or IR (up to 25 mW). $ 10.00
* Medium power red or IR (25 to 500 mW). $ 25.00
* High power IR (500 mW to 2 W). $ 50.00
* Really high power IR (above 2 W, tested to 75 percent of
maximum rated current (more if requested). $ 125.00

C215MSRVC Testing of the Coherent Compass C215M (any power
rating) DPSS laser head and/or analog controller.
* C215M laser head test, adjust for rated power or if weak, set $ 125.00
power 10 percent below the diode current limit, or to power
of your choice where possible. Report will include actual
measured power and diode current. Clean window and confirm
acceptable beam quality. Testing is performed using known
good Coherent Analog Controller.
* C215M laser system test. Same as above using customer $ 100.00
supplied Analog Controller.
* C215M test for single frequency operation using scanning Add $ 35.00
Fabry-Perot interferometer.
* C215M head test on LDC-3900 to determine optimal temperature $ 125.00
settings at rated or desired output power. Report will
include temperature settings to within 0.1 °C, thermistor
resistances to within 1 ohm as displayed on the LDC-3900,
diode current, and actual output power. Note: Will require
removing 10K thermistor pullup resistors on head PCB for
best accuracy. Assuming you will be powering this with
a home-built or third party controller, the pullups are
probably not needed or desired in any case.
* C215M head evaluation. Remove cover, inspect for damaged $ 125.00
or loose parts, provide estimate of repairability.
* C215M head minor repair. Remove cover, inspect, remove, $ 175.00
reglue single loose part if feasible using my custom
Six-Axis Alignment Platform for Coherent Compass-M Lasers.
Note: This is only likely to be successful if the laser
head shows some green light inside when powered (even
if it cuts out after a few seconds). Where there is no
green lasing at all, minor repair is almost certainly not
possible. More complex minor repair (e.g., multiple parts)
at additional $100/hour.
* C215M analog controller functional test. Power known working $ 75.00
C215M laser head, confirm operation of user interface.
* C215M analog controller evaluation. Attempt to determine $ 100.00

Note: This is only likely to be successful if the laser
head shows some green light inside when powered (even
if it cuts out after a few seconds). Where there is no
green lasing at all, minor repair is almost certainly not
possible. More complex minor repair (e.g., multiple parts)

this includes evaluation of beam quality and
setting for specific output power (if requested
and possible). For the LWE-142, it also includes
evaluation of the locking behavior and optimization
of locking parameters if needed. Testing of
complete system with power supply and connecting

RG-840 Veeco ionization gauge controller, model 1 Make
RG-840, electron bombardment degas. Bench offer
tested and appears to work but will need
calibration. Good physical condition.
RG-1000 Veeco ionization gauge controller, model 1 Make
RG-1000. Intact and powers up. I have not offer
fully tested it but might be functional.
Digital readout. 6802/6821 based, 2708
EPROM is probably good since program runs.
Fair-to-good physical condition. Note: This
model is readout only, no setpoint outputs.
Note: The following thermocouple vacuum gauges are guaranteed to be functional
but may require calibration if sold without a TC gauge tube since despite what
the manufacturer claims, there is some variation from one tube to the next,
especially if they have been used to measure vacuum in an Amazon rain
forest. :) Calibration is trivial if your vacuum system can go down
to near 0 Torr. If sold with a tube, I will test and calibrate if needed.
VT45B-1 Teledyne Hastings VT-45 Thermocouple vacuum 1 $ 125.00
gauge readout in cabinet, five station for Pic 1
DV-4D or DV-34 TC vacuum gauge tube. No Pic 2

gauge tube. Tested and calibrated.
DV-6R Teledyne Hastings DV-6R thermocouple vacuum 1 $ 65.00

ruggedized version of the DV-6M for use with
the VT-6 and CVT-6.
DV-4AM Teledyne Hastings DV-4AM thermocouple vacuum 2 $ 35.00
gauge tube. Used, tested. These will work
with the VT-4 and CVT-4 though I'm not sure
how close the calibration is compared to
the DV-4D.
DV-16D Teledyne Hastings DV-16D thermocouple vacuum 1 $ 45.00
gauge tube. All glass version of DV-4D,
appears new or lightly used.
DV-34 Teledyne Hastings DV-34 thermocouple vacuum 6 $ 75.00
gauge tube. Brand new (NOS) in box. This Pic 1
is the stainless/ceramic high pressure high Pic 2
temperature version of the DV-4D. It uses
a funny 4 pin DIN-style connector but is
otherwise fully compatible. Useful range
of 0.1 to 20 Torr, fast response. List
price from Hastings Instruments is $289.
(Adapter to cable or octal base can be
built for about $2, no need to spend the
$125 Hastings charges.) Feel free to
haggle over price. :)
DV-3M Teledyne Hastings DV-3M thermocouple vacuum 1 $ 40.00
gauge tube (Duniway Stockroom part number
DST-01M). Almost new, installed only for
testing, perfect operating and cosmetic

meter movement was damaged but has been
repaired, future reliability unknown though.
Missing the little brass gear inside and
photodetector lamp is burnt out (easily
replaced with Christmas tree bulb). It's
in otherwise excellent condition and
the electronics are functional. Note
that this unit will work as a TC vacuum
gauge readout equivalent to a VT-6A in
its current condition, some reassembly
required though. I guarantee that the
printed scale looks good. :)
THGAUGE-1 General Electric model 22-GC-310 thermistor 1 $ 15.00
vacuum gauge controller with cables but no Pic 1
sensor. Unit is in fair to good cosmetic Pic 2
condition (a few scrapes on the case and the
edge of the meter but doesn't interfere
with functionality) and appears to work
(meter pegs to right-end when powered) but I
have no way to fully test beyond this.
(I may decide not to sell if I find a mating
thermistor sensor.) Also, I'd appreciate
email via the link near the top of this page

especially the specifications/model of the
sensor or if you have one available.

VARHV1 Ultra Lasertech high voltage power supply. 1 $ 125.00
Adjustable from 0 to about 15 kV (at 115 VAC
in). Meters read 25 kV full scale and 10 mA
full scale. Variac to control output voltage
so - regulation, but it's probably fairly
robust against accidents. Note: There is an
interlock relay missing, would need to
replace or bypass. This is a HEAVY unit,
probably 40-50 pounds, fully enclosed 19"
rack-size box. Prefer pickup in Phila area,
but will ship.
IGNITER-1 SUPER size high voltage 60 A pulse transformer, 1 Make
0.01 uF 10 kV capacitor, and 5.5 kV spark offer
gap, part of arc lamp igniter from a Hughes/JVC
100 video projector. Requires source of 10 kV
or more at low current to trigger and generate
32 kV output pulse. (Originally, a HeNe laser
power supply provided the HV but that has
better uses!) This thing would work well for
starting almost any size ion laser or arc lamp.
Excellent condition. (Complete unit may be
available, please ask.)
HVP-1208A Toyo Corporation (Japan) high voltage power 1 $ 150.00
supply model HVP-1208A1-26L. Input:
26 VDC, 2.5 A max. Outputs: 25 kVDC,
1.1 mA max; 4.5 to 7.65 kVDC, 15 uA max; and
200 to 1,000 VDC, 5 uA max. This is the CRT
high voltage power supply used in various
Monitronix monitors (EZ, etc.). It would also
make a very nice general HV source. Internal
adjustments permit output to 32 kV. Removed
from working equipment. It's a metal cased
high frequency inverter, about 5"x6"x2".
`
HVPSU-1 Assorted high voltage power supplies from 8 $ 7.50
laser printers and photocopiers. Various Pic
brands and outputs. Tested with hookup
instructions. Usually, these put out
3-6 kV at a few hundred microamps. Some
have more than one output. I'll try to
accomodate specific requests on a first
come first served basis.
HVU173 Sanyo High Voltage Unit. This is the HV 6 $ 10.00
power supply from a laser printer or
copier. Outputs of -6.0 kVDC at 0.45 mA,
+4.5 kVDC at 0.1 mA, and -350 VDC at 0.35 mA.
All outputs are adjustable a bit. Input of
around 24 VDC. Individual enables for each
HV output. Also has an auxiliary +5 VDC
regulated 1 A output with its own input.
Wiring information will be provided.
These are NOS in original wrapping. Could
be nice for an air purifier, ozone generator,
or similar application (10.5 kV between HV
outputs), or a replacement for that laser
printer or copier it was destined for. :)
HVP-PN20KV Glassman High Voltage HV power supply model 1 Make
PS/NV-20PN15. This is a precision tracking Pic offer
unit outputting 0 to +20 kV and 0 to -20 kV
at up to 15 mA intended for an ion implanter.
It appears to be either very lightly used or
a spare. Excellent functional and cosmetic
condition. I have modified it for operation
on 115 AC (was 230 VAC) and to enable the
variable current limit function (2 resistors
on each PCB) but can easily be restored for
use in original application. It may be used
as two independent variable high voltage power
supplies by rewiring the backpanel-to-PCB
cables. Complete documentation available.
Note: This is an OEM supply with only a
power switch on the front panel. Control
and monitoring is via a backpanel connector.
However, construction of a user control panel
would be straightforward.

we the tax-payers probably paid a fortune for
them! The International Rectifier equivalent
is IRFM9140. DigiKey has commercial version
in very boring plastic TO-247 package (IRFP-9140)
for about $10 each but these are so much more way
cool. :) Even if you don't know what a MOSFET
is, they are worth framing. :) Otherwise, great
for motor or thermoelectric controllers, maybe
even super high power laser diode drivers,
or other high current applications. (The
actual part number is 20036291P1 on package
but device itself is marked 2N7236.)

A few complementary pairs of these would probably also
be good for your next power audio project. They would
really look nice in a high-end amplifier behind glass
in their gold plated package with stainless steel welded

plastic transistor nonsense!
Note for the 2N7218s: I need to confirm these specs as the

confirmed the polarity with a VOM and moist finger. If
anyone has more info, please let me know via email. I

they are essentially fully functional with only
minor quirks.) These should probably
be in the antiques section (1994 date code) but
might be of interest to someone needing
spares for one of those never ending

Magnets
Well, at least they are from electronic equipment. :) These are rare
earth magnets from older high performance hard drives. All are perfect
magnetically but may have some chipped paint. All magnets are N/S on
large faces. These magnets are so strong that they cannot be pulled
apart, they must be slid sideways. I will ask you to sign a DISCLAIMER
form since they can damage flesh and destroy computer media from a
considerable distance. These are much nastier than anything found in
a modern hard drive due to their size.

similar to UDT-455. See: UDT Photops Page.
However, note that being in a 4 pin package,
this is a fixed gain (very high) but low

300 VDC, 260 mA; 150 VDC, 10 mA; 14.5 V, 5 A.
A "Dyanmotor" is a motor-generator with multiple
sets of windings and commutators on a common
armature. Just what you need for your plane or
boat to power that old tube radio. Come to think
of it, your plane wouldn't get off the ground
with this thing on board but it would make a
good boat anchor. I guess that's why it is U.S.
Army - tanks don't worry about mass. :) I will
test it if there is serious interest but it worked
a couple decades ago and the armature spins now
so it is probably fully functional to original
specifications. As an added bonus, it comes with
a spare set of carbon brushes.

PLANAR1 Craftsman 4" Joiner/Planar model 1 $ 50.00
113.21861, NO MOTOR. This is an old
but very well built cast iron unit.
Knives are in good condition and
freshly sharpened. Bare cast iron
surfaces could use a bit of polishing
but no real rust. Will require
a 1/4 to 1/2 HP induction motor,
pulley, V-belt, and motor mount.
This is just the planar itself,
28"x9"x9" with adjustable height
and fence and blade guard. This
works well but I recycled the
cart on which it was mounted for
other purposes. :) Motor available,
see below.
SANDER1 4" belt sander/8" disk sander, mfg. 1 Make
and model unknown, NO MOTOR. Heavy offer
cast iron, includes medium grit
belt in almost new condition and
well used coarser grit belt. Vertical
or horizontal with fence. Bearings
are somewhat worn but usable. Will
require a 1/4 to 1/2 HP induction motor,
pulley, V-belt, and motor mount.
This is just the sander itself. Motor
available, see below.
SCROLSAW1 Really old scroll saw head, mfg. and 1 Make
model unknown, NO MOTOR. Cast iron offer
with blade, hold down. 12" throat. Will
require a 1/4 to 1/2 HP induction motor,
pulley, V-belt, and motor mount. This
is just the saw itself. This may have
more antique value than being a useful
tool. Motor available, see below.
INDMOTOR1 Ugly but functional 1/3 to 1/2 HP 1735 rpm 3 $ 15.00
split phase or capacitor start induction
motor for above. Sleeve bearings, 115 VAC,
60 Hz. Includes mount and grounded cord
with three prong plug.

HP3440A-M Operating and Service Manual for HP-3440A 1 $ 25.00
digital voltmeter. Original manual - not
a PDF - in excellent condition.
EICO482 This dual trace scope was working 15 or 20 1 $ 25.00
years ago and has sat ever since. Good
CRT. I powered it up recently but there
was no trace though I think I was able to
get something on the screen. But no
guarantees other than that it's inc oomplete
and in decent physical condition. Includes
mannual with schematics.
If you'd like a fun challenge, this is for
you. If on the other hand you just want a
working scope, go to eBay, since you'll
probably need a working scope to fix this
one. :)
GR1191B General Radio 1191B 35 MHz 8 digit frequency 1 $125.00
counter. Good bright Nixies. Case is
somewhat beat up but tender loving care
would probably take care of most of it.
Appears to work fine. Service information
may be available.
HP59501B HP-IB Isolated D/A Power Supply Programmer. 1 Make
Very good cosmetic condition. Powers up offer
but otherwise untested since I have no idea
what this does.
B321 Ballantine RAP (RMS, Average, Peak) AC 1 Make
Voltmeter. Analog mirrored meter, offer
vacuum tubes inside. :) Ranges from
0.3 mV to 300 V full scale. Somewhat
beat case, needs a good cleaning inside
but basically works. No probe (I have
no idea what it takes). Just what
everyone needs for that museum.
HP-415E Hewlett Packard SWR meter model 415E. 1 Make
Powers up but unable to test further. offer
HP-431B Hewlett Packard power meter model 431B. 1 Make
Powers up but unable to test further. offer
No sensor or power cord.
MIC-FSM Micronta model 21-525B Field Strength/SWR 1 $ 10.00
Tester. Removable antenna for field strength;
screw-type coax connectors for TRANS and ANT
for SWR. Very good condition, nothing burned
or broken, meter works, but that is the extent
of my testing.
SUPCRT-1 Superior Instruments Company CRT tester. This 1 $ 15.00
is probably only useful as a collectible since Pic
it has one socket for a CRT type that probably
hasn't been manufactured in 35 years. Settings
for cathode, control grid, screen, 1st anode,
and filament.
VATEMPC Valhalla (whoever they are!) temperature probe 1 $ 25.00
for DMMs with a range that reads out in mV for
the LSB. Uses 9 V battery (not included).
TEK529R Tektronix model 529 TV waveform monitor, 1 Make
rackmount. Appears to work but could really offer
use a good cleaning and calibration. This
is a classic and a must for any NTSC TV
studio or editing facility if such things
exist anymore.
TEK529N Same as above but non-rackmount, no cover. 1 Make
Nice bright trace. offer
TEK564 Tektronix 564 storage oscilloscope, 10 MHz 1 Make
vertical bandwidth. With dual trace offer
vertical plugin and spare (may need work),
with original operation and service manual
in very good condition, available by itself
but at an additional charge. :) A classic.
I will test but may not work at this point,
probably needing filter caps replaces. Pick
up in Phila area only.
HEATHIO-14 Heathkit model IO-14 5 MHz single trace 1 Make
oscilloscope. I built this from a kit offer
over 30 years ago. Will test if there is
any interest. Includes original assembly
and operation manual with genuine Sam
scribbling. Actually used very little.
Pick up in Philadelphia area only.
HEATHS3 Heathkit dual trace switch model S-3. This 1 Make
thing takes your single trace scope and offer
make it dual trace, supposedly, at audio
frequencies at least. Untested.
WTFG1 Wavetek model 159 Waveform Generator, 1 Make
rackmount (19"x5-1/4"), KB selection offer
with some sort of non-standard digital
interface as well, 15 pin Molex-type
connector on rear panel). This is NOT a
PLL synthesizer but just a collection of
op-amps and reed relays. It goes up to
a couple MHz with decent waveshape.
However, without computer control, this
is an absolute !@#$ to set up since the
KB isn't latched - hit any number and the
output changes! Case is beat up with
bracket/handle broken on one side. In
other words, it's basically a piece of
junk but now works well since I replaced
all the ceramic bypass caps. It does
have a nice display and fills a 5-1/4"
rack space very snugly. :)
WTPM1 Wavetek model 740 phase meter. This 1 Make
thing is supposed to compare the phase offer
of a pair of signals and display the
lead or lag angle on an analog meter.
I'm not sure why anyone would want one
of these except for a Wavetek museum
but here it is. Needs work as the
meter needle never settles down.
Possibly, the same ceramic cap problem
as in the 159, above. Since I can't
think of anything I would use it for,
I have no intention of fixing it.
RCAWR64A RCA model WR-64A color bar/dot/crosshatch 1 Make
generator in absolutely positively mint offer
physical condition. It did work when I
tried it a few years ago. This is a classic
vacuum tube based instrument that would be
the perfect complement to that EICO VTVM
for your state-of-the-art consumer
electronics repair bench. In original box
complete with operation and service manual
and RCA brochure should you wish to purchase
other advanced RCA test equipment. Time
machine access codes sold separately. :) And
as a free bonus, you also get the service
info for the RCA 21-CT-7835(U) and similar
chassis, somewhat tattered but appears
complete, circa 1957.
EICO232 EICO model 232 vacuum tube voltmeter in like 1 Make
new condition. I built this from a kit more offer
years ago than I'd like to recall. :) With
probe and manual.
HEATHPS3 Heathkit model PS-3 regulated power power supply 1 Make
B+ output is adjustable from 0 to 500 VDC, offer
Heathkit model PS-3 regulated power powe available current depends on output voltage.
There is also a 6.3 VAC, 4 A, output for vacuum
tube filaments. Someone added a fuse in the
high voltage line which is a nice feature (if
a bit ugly). This makes a decent strobe
capacitor charger or more likely if you're
considering it, something to test old tube
radios. Includes copy of user manual and
schematics.
HEATHIG82 Heathkit model IG-82 audio sine/squarewave 1 Make
generator. offer
HEATHG1 Heathkit model G-1 RF signal generator, not 1 Make
entirely working, for parts. This one offer
predates the more modern Heath color scheme.

BREP44 Ancient Brother model EP44 self contained 1 Make
portable word processor. Tested and works. offer
Pre-laptop, maybe pre-dinosaur. :) Actually, Pic
calling it a word processor is probably
generous. It's sort of like a small thermal
dot matrix printer that works with plain paper
(includes almost new ribbon), keyboard, and
short 1 or 2 line LCD display, DB25 RS232
connector, about 10x12x2" overall when closed,

Wanted to Acquire
These are mostly items I'm interested in for personal use and go toward
enhancing the FAQs. Therefore, the prices have to be very low or free
so offers of lasers at 10 percent off of manufacturer's list don't
qualify! :) Trades will be considered. Also see the section of Sam's Laser
FAQ: Please Don't Scrap Your Unwanted
or Broken Lasers or Laser Related Equipment and Parts! and
Request for Computer Resources in Support of
Sam's Laser FAQ Development.
Lasers and Optics
I am interested in laser related equipment, parts, and supplies in almost
any condition as long as it isn't totally mangled or burnt to a crisp. And,
even then, parts might be salvageable. :) The only restriction is that
complete systems must not require a fork-lift to move and run on single
phase 115 or 230 VAC or some form of DC - from batteries up to 100 kV. :)
Optical Instruments/Parts
I am interested in monochronometers, interferometers, autocollimators, and
other interesting optical instruments or parts (like diffraction gratings),
in almost any condition. This could include even more sophisticated
equipment like optical spectrum analyzers and wavemeters, at the right price!

PCB Fabrication
I have several small printed circuit board designs in Gerber format that I
need fabbed in multiple quantities. They are for the Coherent C315M laser.
I know I can go to a Web PCB fab service company and get these but if you
are doing a PCB run and can shoehorn a bunch of step-and-repeat 1 to 2 inch
square two sided or 4 layer PTH PCBs onto a corner of your artwork without
incurring significant additional cost, maybe we can trade for something
if you don't think the info in the FAQs and copies of these or other
C315M related PCBs is sufficient compensation. :) I'll provide artwork
of the individual or multiple PCBs as desired.
