Hey everybody! =D

Hello,
I just joined the forums. I'm currently an Electrical Engineering student and I've always been interested in laser pointer (I mean what boy isn't interested in lasers). And now that I'm learning about electrical circuits I kinda want to make my own laser pointer.
So would anybody have any suggestions on where to start with making a inexpensive laser pointer?
Thanks! =D
