    SO....as you can see....my involvement with Lasers go back...way back to 1973. In 1962, the world's First Visible Laser beam was developed, 638nm HeNe Gas Laser....just a mere 11 years earlier !!!
    My passion for Lasers through my life has been a consistent companion. I have been so very fortunate to see SO much development.. I cannot not imagine what another 47 years will bring. As a pay back, I offer any member of this Forum my help. Just PM me or make a post !!

    I am a CAD operator and have a Machine Shop in my garage. These things make possible CAD Design, Prototype work, Proof of Concept units and Custome Commission Builds.
    I am NOT an Optical or Laser Engineer....just a Hobbyist....who's passion exceed's his knowledge. I have so much yet to learn !!!

    So it goes !! CDBeam
