And once you learn how to build a laser properly, you will find out that it is very easy to do! But there is a learning curve that we all had to go through. There are many tips and tutorials in the 'tutorials and help' section. I've got several kits that will make it easier too... Most or the threads serve as good tutorials even if you don't want the kit: http://laserpointerforums.com/f39/jayrob-build-kits-lenses-other-stuff-listed-here-44227.html
