Hey LPF! I joined back in 2010 when I was in college. Tried to build a burning laser on a budget with some buddies with some success (after ruining a couple of diodes). Jayrob gave us some much needed help. Thanks jayrob! Took a little break from the laser building for a few years (school, broke and work) but I've been recently getting back into it (much to the annoyance of the wife).
I already have an Eagle Pair (OD4+ I believe) so I should be good on safety. The only working laser I have currently is one of the cheap Sanwu 304's 405nm 100mW. But I have a 2W 445nm M140 on its way with the host/driver/batteries ready to go!
Anyway, you'll probably see me around asking questions and stuff :D
