Hey guy's.
First post here.

I know this will probably be annoying and newby, but I've recently decided to obtain a laser. Problem is, I'm in Australia, and I'm sure a lot of you know that anything over 1mW will not be allowed through customs/border security.

Therefor I'm forced to make my own. I really don't have much idea on how to, which is why I've come here. After reading about I have learnt some stuff.

I do have an old dvd burner, and an old 1mW red laser (doesnt work, just thought i could use the casing) and thats about it.

I was just hoping someone could point me in the right direction on how to make this thing? I don't want anything super powerful, just a nice little dot is fine by me, but obviously better then what is available for purchase in this country.

Thanks in advance :)
