Hey, Im pretty new to this but can you tell me how and what I all need to make this YouTube - My homemade X/Y laser scanner This amazes me so much and I just thought it would be great if I could make one.

The cheaper I could do it the better because I dont plan on doing professional shows lol, but I would still like it to be pretty sweet.

Im sure theres videos out there but dont know were to find them. So if you could suggest a video that would be great, since i have never done anything like this before a step by step tutorial would be great.

Thanks,
Trever

u'll need some 'scanning galvos' with an 'amp' to power them controlled by the 'correction board' (sticky at the top of this forum - sound card DAC mod), also u'll need some software like

oh as well as your laser and optics.

putting it together is down to you and alot of reading, i hope this helps as a start as i can understand finding things like the formula for the circumference of a circle without knowing what PI is or even the word circumference can make it frustrating.

good luck with your build :D
