On Friday I ordered a 532nm 5mw laser. To put that in English, I bought a low powered green laser. It’s pretty darn awesome. At night the beam can be seen in the sky due to how dusty Bakersfield can get, and the dot can be easily seen on buildings at a fair distance.

This is my laser.

This is my laser’s beam.

This is a case that I made for my laser. I was inspired by an article on Instructables that showed how to make a case.

This is a tripod mount that I made for my 5mw green laser. It's a pretty simple design that was inspired from a how-to I read on Instructables. I took that idea and ran with it, making a simpler, and more elegant tripod mount.
