Hello XT,

I wouldn't make a final device from wood, but perhaps a prototype to mockup lens spacings, etc... or simply dispense with a prototype if I get what I need testing wise from an optical bench setup of the lens elements, etc. More than likely the final device would be made from Aluminium tube, but you never know perhaps in CF instead. Thx for the suggestion.

Best
