World Dimmers

World Dimmers

Okay, polarizing filters for the literal minded. Each filter is a 20 mm dia x 2 mm think piece of glass with a couple of tiny slots in the edge. Each has 20% transmission by itself, which may not sound like much, but is about what you get through decent sunglasses. We are selling a pair so you can do experiments on transmission as you rotate one against the other to reduce the light getting through virtually to nothing. Or you can make some very cool granny sun glasses if that turns you on. The big guys get upwards of $7.00 per filter for these dudes!! Isn't surplus cool??

Lazy Scott Bearings

Never seemed fair to nail the "lazy" tag so permanently on the "Susans" but that probably has no "bearing" on the issue. Also called turntable bearings, they are the square, flat ball bearing devices YOU bolt between two flat objects to achieve rotation. Like that spinning center section of a Chinese restaurant table. We had these in surplus once and they were quite popular. To our chagrin, we discovered they could be bought commercially for the same price. So we did. The 4" version is rated for a 300lb. load, the 6" for 500lbs., and the 12" (round) for 1000lbs.

First Surface Mirrors

Optical imaging folk insist that their reflective surfaces be on top of the glass, because an optically minor “ghost” is created with back surface mirrors. These “First Surface” optical mirrors generally also have better glass and flatter surfaces than their household brethren. Delicate, with the fragile reflective surface exposed, they carry the prices that precision demands. If you are playing with lasers, photography or optical alignment, the first surface items below are what you need. Dimensions are included in the description as width x length x thickness, all in mm.
