You can buy the cheap webcam, adapter and IR blocking filter here but be quick, they may run out. Note that the webcam will work with windows XP with the recommended driver but you will need to modify the camera firmware to make it run on Vista or 7 (contact me if you need help)
The Star Analyser diffraction grating can be bought here Contact me for an £8 rebate (fully paid up CAS members only)
