Peachy Printer UV laser Shielding

[rylangrayston]

At peachy we have been on the hunt for such a material for quite some time
This stuff is rather great.... we have tested it and are quite happy.

We are thinking about selling it in our peachy printer store by the foot so that people can make printer housings that let you see the printer in action while at the same time be safer from laser light, essentially adding an additional layer of safety on top of safety glasses and low laser power". We are also finding the mark up on this stuff is rather high so hopefully the orders from the peachy store are large enough that we can get it in bulk and pass on some savings to the community.

In this image you can see the gels We are testing .... arrows point to the gels that we thought did a good job at blocking 405 light, The percentages are just guesses not actual measurements.

The two best gels were Chrome orange #179 and Medium Yellow #010

Thats what we have found works best so far... let me know if you guys find something else of interest!

PS
After seeing how well this orange film worked I started shining laser light threw every orange plastic i could find, To my suprize there are nearly identical looking orange plastics out there that don't block any 405nm light! So dont be miss led by the colors you can see with your eyes. The human eye dose a very pour job at seeing 405nm light. In the same way your eyes cant see radio waves, they almost cant see 405nm light.
