      I'd actually be proud of any floridaman if he did that, even if it wasn't this awesome cat.
      That would be an accomplishment compared to all the headlines we normally see like "Floridaman gets his 2cm peepee stuck in a prophylactic"
      Or "Floridaman tries to supercharge his brain with a car battery charger"
      Afterall, there's already 3,000 Floridamen and 4,500 Floridawomen in the lawsuit for trying to charge their iphone in a microwave.

    Hey good on you for emphasizing the importance of proper PPE. I remember in Physics 2 a professor told us a story about a Yag laser blinding a technician. He had moved his safety glasses up for a better look at what he was working on, dropped a wrench into the beam, and it instantly blinded him in one eye. All within a second. Lasers are legitimately terrifying.

      I was wearing a special welding helmet made by IPG in this video, and there a sticker on the inside that says "WEAR IR SAFETY GLASSES UNDERNEATH HELMET" for this exact reason. I was worried the $450 helmet I bought didn't actually protect against IR light, so I called them and an engineer told me it does 100% protect you from the laser, but not stupidity haha.

    Um, for someone who has worked in places like the federal reserve, one of the biggest counterfeits we see in the industry is people "washing" ink off smaller bills and printing the larger bills on them. They are usually really bad because its not easy to get the ink off, and they scrub so the texture is off. You just showed them how to do it better lol.

    This is awesome. I'd love to see more with this laser. Stuff like the range would be cool. Is it theoretically possible to point it at something like a weather balloon/airplane in the sky and would it just cut right through it if you had it on some sort of aiming thing??? The speed it cut through some things is insnae.
    And what if you just kept adding power to one of these? how powerful would it become and it what's the limit. Could you instantly cut through massive metal plates from a distance? Just seems like science fiction. Super cool.

    I've thought i'd understand most physical things going on in your wideos but troughout this whole thing i was like "nah this gotta be the limit of this" and then i was surprised again and again. Like how is something so cool allowed to exist without the public knowing what it really is, every household HAS to have one, and i'm sure i will someday, this replaces so many tools in the garage honestly it's a steal.
    And that Bad Apple at the end made me happy :D

      its only a matter of time before we see units like this at Ace hardware, or even Target haha.
      Maybe not these high power CW lasers (continuous wave/output), but the pulsed variety (MOPA fiber lasers).
      Right now these lasers are in a kind of purgatory, where they are too expensive for consumers, but too much of a liability for industry.
      I reached out to a researcher who wrote an article about the new trend in handheld laser processing and this is what they said.
      Hi Kevin,
      With regards to your interest in handheld laser welding, I recommend you read this article (www.lasersystemseurope.com/analysis-opinion/questioning-safety-handheld-laser-welding) in Electro Optics' sister magazine: Laser Systems Europe.
      I would very much air on the side of caution regarding this application. We've had readers contact us in the past saying they've bought handheld laser welding systems, however are not able to use them due to safety risks/laser firms not being able to produce goggles for these systems/lack of training available. Also, at a recent laser processing exhibition, a safety firm I spoke with (producer of goggles and windows for enclosures) remarked that they are not going anywhere near this application due to the risks involved, which I thought was quite noteworthy.
      From what I've learnt myself about laser materials processing technology, the best solution is to always have the laser contained in a Class-1 format away from humans (in a machine, behind barriers with fume extraction technology). It's not like other handheld welding technologies and poses very different risks.
      That's just my two-cents. But as I say other readers have bought these systems and then just have them lying around gathering dust as they can't actually use them within the safety laws of their country.

      ​@@TheBackyardScientist So what you're saying is... only a brave enough man can use it?
      Man it truly is a shame that such a thing is reduced to a toy for adult kids to play with, i've read a bit of that article to check cause i've thought it's not worth it cause of the upkeep but it truly is just cause of safety and lack of awareness in this field? That's just sad, but as you've shown safety is nowhere near this thing, you could kill a person in a second and make them blind in a fraction of that. But how do you make a death laser safe? Yeah general use isn't ready for this, but at least some people can use it as private owners and for a content creator like you this is golden.
      Since this field is still active i'm looking forward to many uses for lasers anyway, maybe in space, where there isn't a lot of things to burn and breathe in, but i don't wanna jinx the laser making a disco party on some planet bajilion lightyears away

      @@darkshadowsx5949 Literally none of what you said was right, and most of it didn't make sense.
      For a start, the spectrum has no influence on the amount of total power (beyond the energy per photon - which green actually has more energy then IR). The wavelength of light affects the absorption of the target material. If you want to cut copper, Green will do far better then IR, as 532nm is absorbed much better then 1064nm. On the other hand, if you try and cut something that is green with a green laser, it won't go as well, as most if not all the green light is reflected off.
      Nonlinear Crystals actually requite extremely high peak powers to even work. The crystals become more efficient, and the effect becomes more prounounced as the intensity of the beam increases. This is why NLCs such as BBO or KTP are usually used with a Q-Switched laser. The laser is focused in on the crystal such that the intensity of the beam is at, or close to (depending on the power density theshold and max electric field densities) it's focus point.
