My eBay laser pen was really cool after I shortened it. So I proceeded to sand the finish and polish the front half of the pen host. Lesson learned. NEVER use steel wool on a working laser. :whistle: Always take it apart first.

I'd be willing to bet that some third party organization ordering and taking apart projectors, making an enormous profit selling them to Chinese manufacturers.

Haha, that makes me lucky number 7 then. Nice vid ;)

What do you mean, when you say maybe "a chem"? :confused:

WOW, now THAT video is outstanding. Where does one go to learn how to do shows like this? :can:

Lots of good pictures there :thanks: This one shows the details really well, just like seeing it in person :gj: Really interesting description of the defensive behavior there, too!
