So, I have a new project going on
I'm trying to collect a list of links to reputable laser resources. The new site is called AnotherLaserCompany.com and I have some content for it already. If you have one I should add to this list, please email me!

Hello, this is the German Coast Guard
A hillarious commercial for learning English. It is almost as good as this IKEA commercial.

Check it out.

New Video and Google Ads!
First up is a commercial from Dodge for their trucks. Now, without making fun of the manliness of guys who drive big trucks, I will let this commercial .

Next, I have started running Google Ads. I hope to at least recover the cost of hosting. Let's see if this is worth my time...

New Laser Effects Video
This one is actually kinda neat. I setup the scanner to draw a circle and filmed the beam from the center of the cone, pointed towards the light source.

Check it out.

Playing with my keyboard in the bathtub
First, I added a tutorial on how to clean your Apple keyboard. It sounds boring .... And it is. But, it is really useful!

Second, check out Tune.in.Tune.out

Even more laser videos!
Well, I bet you can't guess what currently has my interest.... Anyway,, I've added a new video of my XY scanner illustrating beam effects.

My new first-surface mirrors from Anchor Optics came in on Thursday and work great. The extra weight from the mirrors doesn't seem to slow the scanning down any, which is a bit of a surprise. So now, most of my videos using the scanner will be with my DPSS laser instead of my 650nm or 635nm.

Check it out.

New Laser Scanner videos (with music)
I tried connecting my laser scanner to something other than a sign wave generator and came up with some interesting results. The left audio channel controls the x axis and the right channel controls the y axis. I've re dubbed the music so it should be more clear. Check it out.

New Laser Scanner
I have a new laser scanner setup. This one was made from parts taken from an old Laserdisc player and controlled using the d/a converter in my mac's sound card. Check it out.
