Pocket Laser Vortex of DOOOOM

Step 6 Let the Gates of Hell be Opened!

To get the best results from the Laser Vortex of DOOOOM you need some party smoke. This is an aerosol which sprays a very very fine mist of vegetable oil into the air. A proper stage smoke generator or CO2 mist generator would probably work even better but I haven't been able to try it with one. You can buy the aerosol from most party shops, and from Maplin (in the UK).

You should set up the effect in a room where there isn't much air-flow to maximize the time the smoke hangs around. You can either position it with the cone vertically or place it horizontally so that people have to walk into the Vortex. Because the beam is scanning and only spending a tiny fraction of a second on any one position a normal power laser pointer won't cause eye damage (extrapolated from FDA guidelines). If you are using a high power laser, take all the normal precautions to stop people looking into the beam.

The videos don't really do the Vortex justice - The real-life effect is much better.
I'll try again this w/e but need to get more smoke first.

Sanity warning :-

GAZE NOT INTO THE VORTEX LEST THE VORTEX GAZE ALSO INTO YOU
