I make laser now myself, purple ones mainly but gonna have a go at putting together a blue dpss from its raw components.
I'd like to attend this meet, whats it all about and who'd be coming?
Hi Myorath and welcome to the forum.
Basically the laser meets are a place where we can all get together and talk about lasers from approx 10am to probably 10pm (ish). We all take some gear along, however basic and we demonstrate our wares to other interested parties. Don't worry if you haven't got any gear as yet, it's really not a problem. All you need is a love of coherent light and you'll enjoy the day.
It's looking as though we'll be having a couple of 'workshops' this year, possibly on Pangolin's LivePRO and Medialas's Mamba Black software, We may even manage to get a talk on Laser Safety if one of the Safety Guru's is attending. You get to learn lots and we may even possibly get to learn something from you. I'm sure you'd be made most welcome, we're a nice bunch of folks honest 
Probably the best thing is to have a search through the forum and look at previous meets (there's plently of Photo's - thanks Andy
). Also, search for threads for UKLEM 3, the one that's taking place in Leicester on 10th August.
There will be a small charge this year to cover security/cleaning/bar staff etc. We particularly have to thank Mark (Fluff) for getting us the use of this magnificent venue. and many others who have put in (and will put in) work to ensure everyone has a great day.
Cheers
Jem
