* Talked to Deniz about lasing direction. Decided we probably don't need an intracavity isolator for the Ti:sapph laser. The output coupler will provide enough asymmetry to force lasing in the correct direction.
* Sent email to Layertec requesting quote for Ti:sapph cavity mirrors.
* Talked to Zach about design for Ti:sapph crystal mount. Decided on basic design using water block, possibly from [http://www.customthermoelectric.com/Water_blocks.html here]. Crystal should probably be wrapped in thin indium foil for better contact with copper. Also talked about cutting a "channel" out of the diode laser aluminum block to add a similar water block below the TEC.
