I built a handheld laser using a laser diode in electronics class in high school.

First question: What can it burn through?

Not that powerful really.

Second Question: Can you stun stuff with it?

Like in Star Trek? Nah. It is just a mW laser

Third question: What about fish? Could it stun a fish

Sure sure, yeah, it would stun a fish...

Cool man! That's so cool. a Fish stunner...

A buddy had an old helium-neon laser and used it to play with the cat. This was late 1970's...Stupid thing weighed like 10 pounds...
