(pardon my technical ineptitude here, just figured this would be a good place to ask for advice)

So I dug out an old broken WL 95mw Evolution green laser from a desk drawer. The button has fallen off and disappeared, and unscrewing the cap on top reveals that the glass immediately inside it is cracked.

Otherwise it seems to work. It appears to be outputting at around 95mw, though the beam is very diffuse and fragmented due to the broken glass.

So it doesn't seem to be *that* messed up, but I have neither the parts, tools, nor expertise to fix it myself.

I doubt wickedlaser would be interested in repairing it, since it's long out of warranty and they no longer make it.

Is there anyone else out there who could repair this thing? Barring that, anyone want to take a stab at giving basic instructions on how i might get the appropriate parts and fix it myself?

Unless you're extremely attached to the host, you might as well just spend the money on a different laser. First try your best to take the thing apart without damaging it. If you can't manage that, I'd just not bother.
