Poor man's optics!

[mfo]

Well, here's what you get when you put a piece of hair over the opening of a laser lens. Poor man's optics! Note: This happened by accident.

haha i guess this is the ultimate poor's optic!
cheaper than that? not possible! provided you found the laser for free, though ;-)

many fun effects when you shine a laser around, but most are not compatible to "handheld".. else i would glue parts of my chair to my laser ;-)

Aways interesting to find these effects... even if a hair isnt all that reproducible

 

[nikokapo]

Are you selling those hairs? I'd be interested on buying a few for a friend who's going bald....

 

[mfo]

Yup, I will happily sell them!

 

[mfo]

Better watch it next time. You might have to deal a lot more than just that the next time it will happen.

Huh?

If a GB of this will be running, I am definitely interested!

 

[Gryphon]

Huh?

My thoughts exactly

My thoughts exactly

I think what Olivia was trying to say is next time instead of one it will be many, trying to imply that I might go bald....lol...

Or that the laser might melt the hair on the lense...

???

I don't think hair melts....it burns. + even if it did melt I'm sure it would cool before it landed on the lens.

 

[f22warzone]

for some reason my rpl just burns the hair ...... but it is cool as i can run it down my arm and watch the hair kinda fall off when i am using a converging optic in front of the laser

 

[Krutz]

..which is no good news for those handheld lasers sold for enhancing hair grow.. ;-)
oh, wait, i bet its the different wavelength, never mind ;-)
