So, I'm new to lasers and I want to make a good choice when shelling out money, so I figured I'd go to the people who know what they are doing. I am looking for a out of box option, not a diy project.
Here is what I'm looking at doing, if you can make a recommendation I would really appreciate it. (Please, remember I'm new and if you use jargon I may just stare like a deer in headlights).
So. What I am looking to do is have a blue laser that I plan on beaming through clear glass to cut through plastic, something like a slimline DVD case or fishing wire consistency. The glass part cannot be removed and I know that reflection may be an issue. Range would be at approx one foot.
So, what would be a good laser for this? What would be the appropriate eyewear to be safe? Is there a good package deal out there? What have I not considered?
I truly appreciate any and all feedback, thanks in advance
