Want to make my own laser rust removal machines. How the fuck do you make them?

Is it really that hard? They are pretty expensive but don't seem to dificult on the outside. However my google-fu is shit and youtube is nothing bit Chinese shills.

Any advice?

You're never going to be able to build one given this kind of start. I guarantee it. You could at least have looked at 5 blueprints or something.

Exactly my point. You're clearly somewhat retarded, for real. You have all kinds of information about this online.

You're also displaying an "optimism bias" about a project within a field you clearly know fuck-all about. Classic "how hard can it be"-mindset. That's why you're bound to fail.

Maybe try to click on some links that aren't videos?
Search for "laser cleaning" and "diode pumped lasers"
An appropriate laser + cooling is probably several tens of thousands of dollars.

Kys. I have unlimited time for google and youtube and sold a shitty crackhouse. Cleared 10k. My buddy wants to help start a business manufacturing and selling them and also using them. He already has a shop large enough to fit semi trucks in and 10k also. Any money we make is going into automation so we can prettty much just drink beer and watch it do the work.

An automotive painter down the road is a bro also. He said if we can depaint cars like the china shills on youtube he'd pay us 800 bucks a car and 1000 bucks for a pickup and negotiate all others.

I have 20 grand and work is so fucking slow this month i am just getting paid to learn so fuckoff.

This is /diy. Why not at least give me shit advice and watch me waste our money and fail spectacularly?

I dont believe it needs cooled. From what i understand is so long as it's a proper base material the laser wont hurt it and just heats the bullshit and rust until it exppands and chips off.

Fuck. U meant cooling for the laser.

He has a natual gas well. We are running a generator for electricity. If the nitrogen ends up costing too much we can just buy a machine to make it on payments. Or another bro was considering throwing down 10k for 33% stake. I think good used ones are like 5k?

Build custom use bigrigs. We kinda just fell i to it. He has a small company with a lot of oddball shit we piece together as he needs.

We went to drag a truck out of a pasture to make bigass winch truck and the guy said he was looking for a water truck. Bro just scored an 80 barrel tank for like $4,500. Paid 2k for the truck. Took us 3 days and 2k to assemble and test the truck. Another 1k to get it legal.

$6,500 bucks and 3 days of casual veer drinking. Sold it for 25k and an 80s ford 4x4 with a rod knocking. Threw another 300 6 in it. Kryloned it and sold it for 3k.

It may be a struggle but i think i could live off of 21k every days.

Apparently there is a great need for oddball shit around here and new stuff is so expensive we can repurpose junk shit from pastures and make bank selling good looking and running used trucks.

Kek. If no laser gun then I'll just /diy a blasting suit with a hose for air conditioning and get busy sandblasting for a month or 2 until we can get a gun. Fuckit.

They are probably big Q switched rod pulse lasers, with a galvano scanner to sweep the pulsed beam.

So first you need to find some large surplus laser rods. With a diode pump, assorted optics, high powered Q switch adding up to probably 10K$ in parts ... add an university level knowledge of power electronic and optics and you can build it.
