The last thingy is actually an argon laser with variable wavelength if it works ... Low power but probably a nice teardown? Or does anyone know a proper application for something like that?

Would you ever transition from dubbed videos into facing the camera and talking videos? Post Apocalyptic Inventor, your German comrade did it.

Could be a good, if *slightly* overpowered laser for PCB lithography? Or hair removal? :P

One application of the argon laser is pumping of Ti:sapphire femtosecond lasers. Could spend a couple thousand on a Ti:sapph gain medium and try out two photon polymerization. Good beam quality out of them in general, could do some fun stuff with holography as well. Other than that, they're just pretty.

For any kind of metal ablation it really takes a pulsed laser with a high energy, these kind of continuous wave modules I have would just make the metal a little bit warmer. Hair removal tho? That could work, any volunteers?
