Wicked Lasers


wanted one but then thought whats the point in using all that money for a laser that would probably get used once then sit in the draw :)
 
I like the pretty colours, but honestly, knowing me, I'd put someones eye out.

Wnder if one could use them as a dremel-like tool? :)

I think you'd have to get one a little more powerful for that purpose.

just try and construct your own. It`s apparently quite a fun project. I wonder how much efficiency you can achieve without having to have professional tools. I guess you would need a good power supply so maybe a cascade circuit?

A buddy of mine used to build tesla coils for fun, you can cut stuff with those but it`s not really safe and never accurate. Kinda cool anyways.
 
I built a Co2 Laser as a science fair project once. The thing could burn through a block of wood 30 feet away. Unfortunatly, due to that fact the school suspended me for a week for bringing a "weapon" to school. :angry:

And Tesla coils are the most amusing electrical devices ever! My friend and i have one that we fire up every now and then :P

EDIT: It just occured to me, WhyTH is this in other consoles?!?!?

I have absolutely no compunction to have several hundred thousands volts of electricity course through my body, thank you very much. We just use it to make bottles explode :P

Just wondering. Even though some members (ahem fishbong and shikaku) think that I'm a dumbass for asking, some people actually do touch the discharge because of various rumors and so forth. Just because it doesn't hurt. No hurt!=No damage.
