As you're already figuring out from other replies, Kel, there's a lot of ways to build a CS generator!
Current limiting can be as simple as a series resistor sized so that, once the current increase vs. time curve starts to level off it's drawing no more than about a milliamp per square inch of wetted area. That should be about the time you start seeing a Tyndal effect from the laser pointer... right, Bob? If your process varies by a factor of two here or there, it's not crucial. You'll find that there's a lot of room for variation without losing effectiveness. Keep up the good work. Ask questions (there's other newbies reading along eagerly!). Let us know how it goes.
