License To Lase

[rfourt]

Grattis!

Nice job! Was it expensive? Any links to the paperwork?
What show are you doing and where? Would be cool to watch some legal coherent photons in Sweden for once!

Thnx.
I think it costs about 4500SKR (About 400EURO) a year.

Cool i will let you know next time. I had a show last friday and might have one more coming up this friday, not confirmed just yet though.

Nice work,
I have just been talking to strålskyddsinstitutet about this and are planning to take the course in october but it is 1100 euro so im not really sure i have that money right now =/

They told me that if you take the course and make a couple of installations with them coming to check on you a couple of times, then they might issue the license to you if you do good.
How did you make this come true, if you would like to share?
Bless!

I have been working with Swedish "LaserMedia" for many years some years agoo using HighPowered Argon gaslasers, back then i think we where the only company who where doing party shows and therfore quite known in the swedish industry and got a certificate to do shows anywhere except outdoors wich we needed a special certificate for each event. I also have some connections with LaserOmagica and SPectra Physics, so i didnt need to do the course.

I contacted them and told them who i was and what ive done and talked to them a couple of times. and then they sended me the papers to fill out.

Interesting. I thought you had to apply for this specifically for each show that you were doing, but maybe that was changed recently?

Where did you find the information about how to do this - is contacting them the only way?

Anyway, congratulations!

Yep this has been changed if you are a company that do these shows on a regular basis. If i remember correctly they have an form on there website wich you can fill out and send to them, and you will be contacted by them. Or as i did Contact them directly by phone.

It's not bad, considering that was what you had to pay per show for the license earlier.

Compare that with 440 per year for Arizona
And something like twice that for the NYS exam.
