I am looking at your extension adapter for the laser tube and I really like it.
Can you describe how you made it ?
Is it made of PVC pipe and flanges ? Or did you 3D print it ?

Thanks

It is 4 inch PVC schedule 40. I used 2 pieces so the joint came out ans yes I used a 3d printer for the hinges, mounting flange and end cap.

Thank you. It looks professional.
How did you cut the hole in the side of the box ?

Thanks

I measured the center line of the mirror and transfered those to the outside. then used a dremel to cut it out and clean it up. the OD of the PVC comes within a 1/4 inch of the back of the machine.

I may try to do the same as you when I decide to upgrade to a larger tube
