Hi From Portland Oregon!!

I am 19 years old, my name is Zach, and i'm obsessed with anything electronics. I live in Portland Oregon. And I am here to learn more about lasers and laser technology's. As well as planning on building lasers as soon as I figure out wtf i'm talking about.

Welcome to the forum Zach

Make sure you utilize the search bar at the bottom of the page before making new threads asking questions, and that you get goggles if you decide to obtain any laser >5mW.

Stay safe and enjoy your time here

Welcome, Zach. It is very nice to meet you. I have lived in Portland before, but it was back in the 1980s. You weren't around back then, but it was a very progressive place to live. I am now in Tacoma. Glad to have you here.

Hi
Welcome to LPF have a great time and be safe always

There's a lot about lasers to learn and enjoy, and please do remember to practice laser safety when you start learning hands on.
