Hey folks, lately i scored a 50W SMA fiber coupled laser on ebay the other day.
The fiber is perfect on the one side, but smashed on the other, so i have to polish it.
I have seen Marco Reps on youtube doing this, but he had a bare fiber end.
My fiber is surrounded by a stainless steel surrounding. Do I have to cut it off,
in order to have the bare fiber? Or can I just polish the whole end including the metal part?
Cheers
