CRS Laser Turned on

I finished hooking up everything to the new CRS laser chassis (see alog 91067 and photo attached) and turned on the laser. There will be a couple of changes to be made to the chassis (swtiching which chassis the the plexi box covers, attaching stickers etc.) but for now the CRS is up and running (minus damping). I'll continue to keep an eye on it, but until the damping is hooked up it seems unlikely that it will damp down on it's own while there's still activity in the LVEA
