I wish I could make it but I have a-lot on my table with school and work right now. Not to mention a severe lack of funds due to buying a QM.net
Anyways, I hope you guys have a good time, maybe I can make the next one (especially if you host it in Dallas )
Yes! Please post photos! I never got to see what Displaser's projector could do, so I can't wait to see!
WAREHOUSE is 95% ready- Adam and Jonathan are in route-Greg is comung Im hope- no word from him for a few-- ANYONE who is thinking about making the drive to Freeport should do so--you will not be disappointed-- It may be going on all night-- just come to 517-W 2nd ,Freeport Tx 77531- park ing the lot w/ the fence/gate-- follow the music- door is kinda hidden in the back corner of the surrounding buildings. behind a big bush-ask anyone in the lot-- they will direct you yo me-- sign the waiver and join the party-- bring lawn chair and a blanket if you can-- Old blankets also are needed to hang on the walls to defeat the echo-- be there or be square-- Len(hak)
It was fantastic!!
You could have arrived at midnight with nothing but your smile and still 2+ hours of incredible photon magic- We got it all going around 4 PM so there was music' 'n LASERS for 10 hours!!!
Prolly the smallest LEM on record but definatly worth all the work and will make the next one soooo much easier.
Once I get my projectors done we can do one in the same warehouse-there will be more than enough lasers with mine -PLUS if for the next one I can get Greg-Austin or any others to make it ... and this time more advanced notice for my friends here and the many forum members living closeby to plan to attend it will be even better!!!
I am getting a 14 ft mini camper trailer to park outrside so no need to crash on the old couch that I brought--- all alone kinda scary -no sleep really just waitng for the sun to come up. Today I go back for the last of my stuff and to turn in the keys.
I feel that I can get enough People next time to have sufficient fundage to get a pair of rooms at the Inn just a few blocks away for the projector owners coming from a long distance.
Jonathan . Adam and his dad Gary were like partyng with old friends. I CANNOT THANK THEM ENOUGH!!!
We had a wonderful time and my friends warmed up to the guys very quickly. All in all it turned out better than I expected and the only sad part was YOUR absence and that of many of my friends who had a lot of other functions going on at the same time.(cook-off and two BD parties). No Worries!!! SoTEXLEM #2 is already being planned bigger and even better.
photos and vids will be up asap.
hope to see you soon----Len
these are only test shots taken the night before- 100mW red and 45mW argon ML (on idle)green is JETLASER 250mW (actual 350mWs)
more to come soon--sorry still recovering--

Great to hear that it went well! Maybe I will make the next one...just a spectator, but I love the lasers!!!
