Hey guys. I'm relatively new to lasers, here's a little bit of a background story of my laser life. When I was around 5-6 years old, I was in my bed-room, trying to sleep. All of a sudden, I saw a really bright red light going around my room. I thought to myself, "What in the world was that?". My mom later told me it was a laser, ever since then, lasers have just been awe-inspiring. Later on, I was 8 years old, my grandmother(deceased(RIP)) bought me my first dollar store <5mW laser pointer. I had so much fun with it, and I loved it. The best feeling was when it was foggy, and you can see the actual beam. Ever since I had heard of the terrible company Wicked Lasers, I was on another forum, where a member had sold me a burned out diode 1W laser, with glasses. I was so ecstatic, that I'd have a laser, that I was able to see the actual beem. Well, that was today. My laser has finally arrived, and I can't WAIT to buy a diode off DTR so I can fix it myself. Just so you guys get to know a little about me, I am a VERY responsible, mature, intelligent 17 year old. I have my pilots license in Ontario, and I am legally eligible to fly single engine aircraft. Flying is my second hobby. I've played hockey my whole life, and I just love to be active. I hope this wall of text isn't too elaborate, but whatever. I didn't have pictures on me; remember the expression, "Pictures mean a thousand words"? Well here's my thousand words. Regards, Nick.
