Hello everybody! I am new to this high power laser thing. I am not new to electronics however, and have made a laser listener in the past using a standard old school red laser. I just took an infrared communications receiver and shot a modulated laser beam (ie. one that was bounced off a window or mirror glued to a speaker cone) at it. It can be fun to use things for purposes other than what they were made for. Anyways... I just bought a Wicked E3 (I said I was new) green laser and was wondering what I could use it for besides burning thin black plastics. I also bought the Wicked optics set. Any ideas? I was thinking of buying a blue laser and a more powerful red one and try to make a projector. Maybe holograms?
I am not a genius. Not even an engineer. I am a fast learner though. So nothing too complicated please. I am one semester away from receiving my degree in Electronic Technology. I was offered a job with General Atomics working on unmanned aircraft but unfortunately could not get top secret clearance due to a felony. So if anyone knows who would hire me I would appreciate that too. I have applied for the Electricians Union but that is hard labor!! Plus electronics is my passion! I am completely changed and have a wife and kid I need to take care of now. Anyway If I cant get a job, at least I have a little extra time to mess around with lasers and stuff.
