    I'm interested. Not a lot of laser show stuff left here other than the old 2.5W RGB. I could bring a LaserScope or 2. Might be able to convince a friend to bring one of his 20W projectors we built around 8W 577nm Taipan...

    Started to drag out my coherent tonight and look around for spare 4wire 6awg to make it from the power box to psu. Looks like I have to run to the city and grab another 3 phase breaker all are in use here. Will grab some extra 100amp blow type fuses for the main feed to box, as I have 50amps of 3phase load now with servers here in the warehouse. Add to that the load of the coherent and I should be near 100amps! Come January I will have reduced the load here a good 40amps. So we will have the power for two big ion lasers....Good times.

    Thanks to "Vidal Wolf" for giving me a boot in the ass by wanting to bring his laser over for testing so the time line is moving right along for a larger photon exchange in January 2012, Thinking January 14-16th.

    Just a bump as a reminder, I went around and put up about 8 bounce mirrors, still clearing out years of crap to make as much room as I can in the long hall.

    Date: January 14-15th Oakland, CA

    Yes could use some help putting up some scrim. But I won't be doing that till end of the month-ish also have a large speaker system here that I need to make cables for.

    I have a manual mill/lathe if anyone wants to mod any parts or make up some small brackets. I am limited by the bits I have. My tooling was sold with the project I had the mill for so best to bring your own bits. Have welder and plasma cutter should you need to use.
