Back up Laser???????

[Steve Clarkson]

I was thinking about getting a backup laser and I wanted low-cost and if it could work without electricity, that would be a bonus. So I found this (The Sun Cutter Project by Markus Kayser):

If you want to know how old that technology is consider that it was the method I, and many before me, used to burn our name in our leather ball gloves. I think I was 14 at the time so that was 61 years ago. We used a simple 39 cent magnifying glass.

I just did a glove for a major league player with the laser and thought to myself that the old way was better. Of course his glove cost $345.00 mine was a bit less than that.

The enginiety of the design is incredible and it did the job almost to the same standards as some of your stuff Steve. :D

But think of the benefits: no exhaust system, no noise suppression needed, totally portable, no table size restrictions....

Think of all the "rainy day" holidays!

Steve, actually there is a solution. That is if you have a steady hand......

I have been tempted to make one of these for some time.
