Can anyone supply the file for the adapter that is used for the China Red/Black lasers that don't have a C-series head please?
I bought mine before they started shipping it with the adapter and before the price went down!
It's need sitting here for a while and haven't got around to installing it yet.
What thickness of Acrylic do I need (in mm)?
Thanks,
Andy

Good morning again Andrew... we should have a telephone hotline this morning? I bought the adj head bracket from Cloudray that I think you are talking about, knowing that the heads on my machine are much larger than any of the laser heads on Cloudray. I built an adapter from a couple thicknesses of acrylic and as it is so small, it is very rigid. I can post if if it will help but I have never seen laser heads this large. Gene

It sounds like it'll be a different version to the one I need. These red/black Chinese lasers (or at least mine) has a smaller linear bearing than the one the bracket is designed for. I know Russ has the files for it. I was just hoping it was on this site somewhere.
