I guess it's some type of laser. I've never seen anything like it. I wonder if harbor freight has one?

Laser ablation.

I had a CO2 laser in grad school that I could do that. Not as fast as that.

Probably better if it's his own finger.

nah, you can make one with some diodes out of a dvd player and some old capacitors. I saw it on one of the hobby sites.

I've seen that.

Let's just say, that as the owner of multiple International Harvester vehicles,  I'd give at least one of my nuts for that device.

Very cool.  I think it is frequency tuned to cut oxides better than the raw metal.  Basically it just burns away the rust.  I bet they are HUGE money!!!

It would make you go blind without eye protection.  

Give it a year and it will be at Harbor Frieght for 129.95 or cheaper if you have a coupon.  LOL

I work in the rust repair and restoration industry for old cars. Hopefully the market will start making knock offs of these and get the prices down. The big ones are in the half million dollar range.

If I had an equipment rental yard I would buy the fuck out of those things and make a fortune!!!





ETA: $250 per day (24 hour) rental I would ROI in 200 days.

Even better if it just "scanned" the intruder from top to bottom and removed everything above skin, hair clothes and all.

Mount one of them sunsabitches in the car wash, it would blast all the rust off the bottom of your car and you'd come out the other end with a new car! You'd need to wear some of those 3D movie theater glasses I think, but small price to pay.

I thought I just read a few posts ago they were $500,000? Not $50,000. You'd need 2,000 days. 6 and a half years of 6 day a week, 24 hour rentals, to break even. But hey, after that it's all profit!

Wow, do want!!

Surprised me that you could touch the bare metal right after running the laser over it, seems like it would be hot.

Just for the record, I'm not a scientist.
