Forget about lasers. I want something I can carry, like a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.   8)

Yea, that machine is about 20’ x 50’ with both beds, the laser cabinet, beam axis gantry and ventilation system!  A bit hard to conceal!

That would be way too big for me to handle. But this . . .

That's what I would expect for that level of power.    Wow.

Finishing up the Work Room
« Reply #15 on: March 09, 2018, 02:44:31 PM »
Changed the Subject.

About finished with the gun room.   Got the right size tubing from a beer making supply place.  5/16"id isn't at the local big box stores.  Of course, got some beer while I was there. 




Got a new chair in.   Really like this.  Bought one, table height, for my lighting director at work because he busted the old one.  It's called a medical stool.  I got it from Global Industries for $78.   It doesn't have any arms but a nice back support.    The one at work is for table height and mine is counter height.  Actually they're the same, except the counter height comes with the foot ring.   Also I found you can replace the castors with "feet".  They're call Chair Glides.  But its is a misnomer, they're meant to keep a chair in place not move it around.    A place called the Supplies Guys has them.

Now to tackle the garage.

Looks good Alf.  I'm rounding up ideas, because in a couple months I'll be putting together a new set up.  Took long enough to set this one up, and I quickly knew a few things I want changed.  I'm sure the new one will be the same  :-\

The press handle looks like it's too far down from the seat of the chair. I'm guessing the position is good for the first half of the stroke and will give you more power there.

Furniture glides make it much easy to move furniture around. If you don't have casters or glides on your chair you'll feel the difference as soon as you try to drag it across the room. It sucks trying to move a bed by yourself without glides on it. One of mine came off.

On the subject of lasers, the army has a 60-kilowatt laser weapon mounted on an armored truck. That's the most powerful laser I know of that can easily be moved from place to place.
