I voted StyroPyro .
Now why ?
This is a tough choice and by openly comparing each of the contestant's laser to each other... they may dislike me for it... but what the heck.
I tell the truth as it is.
So no bad feelings eh?

SBA's laser.
Trustworthy , tried and tested . Nice output , good divergence.
The M1911 of the laserworld, but that also makes a kinda... bland .
I'm sorry SBA, but that entry was just a bit too... well... standard.
Its putting forth a Hummer to a custom cars show.

Grainade's laser.
SHINY SHINY SHINY!!!
Its a friggin WORK OF ART!

You know what it reminds me of?
Rich people chrome sculptures that bids for MILLION of dollars.

Elegance, prestige , and functionality.

Styropyro's laser.
That was a tough choice
The Derringer pistol of the laserworld.

Discreet, elegance, and a heritage to match.

We've seen plenty of large sized host , but one that is so compact and brilliant... thats a first. The pen style host's construction difficulty also adds to the rating of Styro's laser.
In my opinion, Styro's laser REALLY stood out from the crowd.

Congratulations to grainde who took the contest by storm with his amazing and beautiful laser.

In a close second place was forum and YouTube celebrity; styropyro!

Third place was a tie between Atomicrox, wannaburnstuff and TheDukeAnumber1! As there was a tie between those 3 people, what should be done!?! They could either get no price or we have a re-vote between those three contestants, for 1 day only. Tell me what you think.

PMs will now be sent out regarding prizes, I'd like to thank everyone for participating.
Now head over to the Laser Contest Suggestions thread and tell me what should be the topic for the next contest.

Thanks,
Gun

Congratulations!!! Grainde, StyroPyro, Atomicrox, wannaburnstuff and TheDukeAnumber1!

It would be nice if the runners up got something too :thinking:

Great work on the part of all the participants. Everybody's lasers were great and a huge accomplishment. I think Gun's first contest was a huge success. Thanks Gun :bowdown:

Wooohooo just got up and saw this! :wave: Thanks guys :)

Congrats to Styropyro, Atomicrox, wannaburnstuff and TheDukeAnumber1!!

Tough decision there with third place? Maybe a 1 day rematch as you suggested Gun? :beer:
 
Sure you'll do better with the next contest. Maybe a High-End custom would make your abilities shine more. People seem to dig those polished hosts you're so good at :beer:

Thanks guys, didn't think I'd get even one vote. I'm really happy now :)

Good job guys, special congratulations and +rep to grainde, styropyro, wannaburnstuff and TheDukeAnumber1!
(the spread your rep message didn't let me rep you all..)

SBA, I'm sure you'll shine on the next one :)

Congratulations to the winners!

Wow...not one single vote, huh? Ouch.

I would love to have one of your builds as a regular laser pointer.
But if you ask me.
Contests such as this demands more than just functionality and ruggedness.
People want to see a something that is artistic and timeless.
The culmination of centuries of technological development and cultural pursuit crystallizing into a scroll of magnificent light .

Need to be more artsy farsy matie :D
