grix - i did it entirely in LSX. it's mostly the output of the lissajous editor combined with a few basic shape primitives like squares and circles. i am looking forward to giving your ilda frame editor a go when i get some time.

just use frozen mercury.

thank you everybody! i've been meaning to post the show videos, but real life got in the way. here's my first place show:

yes. i do a little crossposting between the two forums ;) links to older versions of the shows (i should have the current versions up later this week) are available on my website: Christopher Short Laser Artist the etherdream is an excellent little dac. ping me in irc if you need any...

i recently attended the ILDA (International Laser Display Association) convention in las vegas where i was awarded first, second, and third place trophies in the "abstract laser shows" category. what an experience! i spent three days hanging out with old school and awesome laserists. winning...

also, check out cmb's LSX video tutorials. they're very excellent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POrAv7M8qEg&list=PL98jfPM1pbKy-HMq0UuledsHYM-2bxwPd

you made lumia! one of oldest and most awesome laser effects. here's some i made a while back.

the right solution would be to not use a 24v dc psu on it. why are you doing that?

you're not trying to drive this from your stepper psu, are you? 'cause that would be silly.

you could possibly use an AOM to q-switch it. here's some helpful information to get you started: http://cdn.intechopen.com/pdfs-wm/24808.pdf

you can't. they don't exist. now if you want to convert 808->1064->532, that's a totally different story/ maybe something like this: GLM ND YVO4 KTP Laser Pumping Crystal for 532nm Green Laser Module AR Coating | eBay

both very valid reasons! let me know if you need any help once you get your psu built. ;)

i understand the joy of DIY, but don't overlook the option of getting a commercial psu: 40W~60W PWM CO2 Laser Power Supply (AC110V) commercial psu's often have interlocks so they won't fire the laser if there are ground problems or if your water cooling isn't flowing. very important!

living room is easy. you can use short ducting and vent out your window. ;)

i have a 400fcm duct fan and tubing mounted under the table and venting the exhaust air outside.

i've diagrammed the beam path for you. it's not too complicated. the hv stuff is also quite simple assuming you use an off the shelf co2 laser psu.

i strongly recommend you converting that to a co2 laser system. i recently built a laser cutter and it cut acrylic like butter.

nope! ;)
