I read about a guy in the news a couple days back got busted for blinding pilots as they were flying, I thought it couldnt be an average keyring laser pointer, turns out you can get handheld ones that look like lightsabers and can shine 25 miles

Anyways while looking at the laser stuff I found a cheesy yet very impressive laser video, check it out:

I just been looking at how to do the cool lightshows, I just foudn the mirrors and motors, its called a galvo for $99 us, this comes with the software too, then you just need a laser and some smoke, I think I am gonna get into this, I always been attracted to torches, shiny things

interested search for laser galvo on ebay

i was researching weapons once. weapons like EMP pulse guns etc. and that u can make your own ones and things but they are not considerd a threat as they take 4 mins to charge sometimes but can out perfrom any bb gun. And i watched a video where some guy was talking about things like this and they whent onto lasers! They have a laser that will start a fire instantly without any kindiling or smoke!!!!

i think i might buy one. would soon sort that kid out across the road with a laser pen and the image of a cock for it.

That one in the link the PGL 3, it will set things on fire no problem, also would blind you in a nano second even if you only catch a reflection so it wouldnt be ideal for getting that annoying kid back, unless he lived about 25 miles away which that thing claims to reach.

I been looking more into the laser thing, seems to be two routes, either buy a self contained unit from a disco equipment shop, this can be done quite cheaply or you can buy the laser, the motors and mirrors (to make the pretty shapes) and hook it up to your pc, would cost about ?400-?500 but would be so cool to have a toy like that.

neiter the laser nor the magnifying glass will make any smoke, but the fire will do in both cases
