Hi everyone!
Although I'm watching the forum more than year I belonged of the silent majority. Now it may be time to change ...
Ok, my name is Ondrej (Andrew), I live in Prague and my job is IT. Boring, right?
The lasers are interested in since 80' when I was attending elementary school. At that time I with my friends were trying to make my/our first laser - a ruby laser.
We had scheme from the popular science magazine only, but it did not matter to us. We were excited that we could produce strong light beam and proudly show it in school ...
As ruby crystal we used rod from mom's jewelry :shhh:, FPR made from cosmetic mirrors glued together with skewers and as a light source the Sun's rays focused by magnifier...
Did it work? No .... but interest has persisted.
Regards from Prague :wave:

Btw. excuse my 'easy' English, pls...
