I took a few lab courses in the university (for Physics), it's never that easy.
How do you keep it in place? A wood mount? A 3D printed piece? A metal support may be an overkill. Does it need screws for alignment? I guess 3, but I'm not sure if they are necessary. Can I buy the sensor alone or I have to remove a lens? Do you have a strong opinion about sensors? Like one for beginners and one for intermediate level. Wires? I still have nightmares about BNC wires that magically stop working. How much light isolation? Do I have to paint everything in black? (While using a microscope in a completely dark room to take photos, someone opened the door and the light ruined one or two of the slides, we notice that a few days later.)
Each one here has a different set of expertise, so if you want to run the experiment and write a nice post with photos you can farm some karma. Otherwise, you can just comment that is also useful.
