*added videos*
I was playing around with the 168 some more in my garage yesterday and decided to take some video of the startup procedure and the running of the laser. I'll get some 'burning' videos soon, for those of you who are into that sort of thing
Here's the videos! My camera ran out of memory half way through so there are two videos, only about 30 seconds passed between the two. here ya go!

Well I finally got off my lazy keister and hooked this baby up. This usually requires 3-phase 208V industrial power and is water cooled. Its rated at 5W nominal and can go as high as 8W. I've posted a few pictures before that were taken with my iPhone, but now I finally got some GOOD pictures of this thing running at my house.
Enjoy!! The glasswork is beautiful....
Warming up.....
This thing really is a work of art...
*crosses fingers and hits the start button*
The tube starts!!! No lasing... but after a quick alignment we have light!!!
This next picture looks very similar to a picture I've already posted, but it was taken with my good camera and taken today! Just came out very similar looking
Let me know what you think!
