Thanks so much! I will look into these!

(OF course, I have some that can burn serious holes...because laser manufacturing is an inexact science and some turn out more powerful than most. I used to have some guy going through hundreds to find the best which were much more powerful than the average.)
As you can see, I'm happy to help. "Sharks with fricking laserbeams on their heads :)"

He has a =culpture of an archer on his island which over looks the sea and he =ants to put a laser in it's bow to have a laser beam going out from the =ow across the sky. He wanted to see if you could recommend a good type =f laser to use for this? I tried to do some research on lasers, but =t's quite confusing! Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so =uch!
