Hello all,
I was looking through a copy of Laser Focus world and spotted something
that was very interesting to me so I assume at least one or two of those on
here will want to read it as well. It's a small article on machining on
nanoscales using lasers and polymers. You've seen those tiny finger nail
sized hot air engines, forget them, this beauty is smaller than a single
blood cell. That is some seriously neat machining power. Some day, many
years from now, I may get to touch such a machine, and then subsequently pay
for the damages. I have some informations on CO2 laser basics as well I
might put up since there a few questions now and again about using them for
working metal.
