Getting started

New member here!

Hi! It's great to be here! I just built my first class 4 laser (it wasn't a total success) and LPF has already helped. Anyway I live in Houston, and although I probably won't be of much help to anyone, I would like to learn more about Lasers.

Welcome to the forums!

I one day hope to build my own laser too, but currently prefer buying from companies haha.

Thanks! Haha I would just buy one, but it's way cheaper and I don't mind the extra work.

I want to build my own but I have no experience

What I did to get started was look on YouTube for tutorials and research the parts some. I would recommend going through and researching each of the steps to fully understand the process. Then once u have ur desired parts, build it, just keep in mind safety

Then you need to build one to have an experience. Lots of help threads here.

Welcome to LPF! You will learn a lot here. Learning is just as important as tutoring others. Be safe.
