I'm looking around for a nice big laser warning sign/poster thing :) Not a joke one or anything, a completely official laser warning sign. I want to stick it on my door ;D

Does anyone know where I can buy something like this? :)

LOL, I have no idea where one could be bought...

But I would also love one, perhaps we can do a group buy, if someone knows a quality printing company, some nice posters would be pretty cool.

A custom laser poster group buy?

Now that's an interesting thought...

In fact, we could do something like that, and do more! As well as a laser warning poster, we could grab some of the best beamshot pics on the forums and make THEM in to a poster montage!

Figure out how big you guys want the sign, and what backing. My wife does signs. Yard signs, and vehicle signs. For yard signs, she uses thin aluminum for the backing. That would probably be a good material to use. Figure out how big, and exactly what 'logo'. Then I will get her to figure out a price.

It will depend on how many signs, but it shouldn't be too much...

Okay, I was just looking up pictures and I think something like this would be good: http://www.youritronics.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/600px-laser-symbol-textsvg.png Except I'd like 'Danger' written on it somewhere.

How about this, I'll do some custom laser sign designs. Essentially just mix and match of existing signs to make a cool and official looking warning sign. I'll redraw everything in vectors so we can have infinite resolution. High resolution images are needed for best results in printing I'm fairly sure :)

As for size, I was thinking about 12x12 inches.

So if anyone is interested, chuck it in now I guess. Thanks to jay and his wife we may be able to make a series of very professional looking laser warning signs!


btw, while looking at images I stumbled on this site: http://www.geekologie.com/ it's pretty awesome! Look at this sign, lol : http://geekologie.com/2007/04/warning-sign.jpg

nice. that is a good idea for coherent, not only are they helping out everyone by giving away laser warning signs, they are also collecting a nice mailing list of people that are interested in lasers.

expect some advertisements from them after signing up for a free sign :) i'm curious about their advertisements and am going to sign up for a free sign just to see what else they send :)

Very odd?
I'm scarred for the rest of my life knowing that some man stuck that into a park bench that I could sit in.. :-/

On topic... Signs are looking good, but I would like something that's not too serious, something that's a little exaggerative.

Oh, ignore the first one on that site :p That's pretty weird...

But there is HEAPS of geeky stuff there, look at some of the older pages ;D
