      Well my laser at the moment can cut through both iron and titanium but a little slower then we’d like, other lasers can do it very fast!

      These lasers are a bit too powerful to use in hospitals because human skin, muscle, bone etc is not nearly as strong. But lasers are used all the time in hospitals! form using them in surgery to making patterns on implants which help them not grow germs!
