You have me worried now.. The label pic he sent to me seems to be on a different coloured envelope, but still.

Love the raygun style pic at the end!

That's some clean soldering!

Alright, if you say so. It's Wednesday night an Israel Post still has yet to send any updates to the tracking number you gave me a week ago. Their own site says 'There is no information regarding the EMS to Abroad postal item [MY TRACKER].' when I input it, while track.aftership.com simply says...

Pretty pics! As for my thread-- no idea why it got closed. I still have yet to receive my laser! I've asked the mods to reopen my thread, but they haven't, and I'm not sure why.

Oh, hah, mine hasn't come in! It should be here this week, though.. I was just congratulating LED, as we've been PMing each other shipping statuses and stuff.

It finally came in, congrats!

Wait, so you actually have a plasma cutter? Hah, I thought that part of your signature was just a Dead Space reference!

Wait, two to five days from that point? I thought you said it would deliver Sunday or Monday.

Why does it have to be 150 mw?

I dunno. His exact words were 'I forwarded it a few days ago via EMS express. As the Israel post really did some serious problems.' I did go for the cheapest shipping option.

Update on my laser! It seems the Israel post office didn't send the laser. Earlier this week, Eitan send me an email and a picture of a shipping label with a tracking code and my address on it. He says he sent a new laser to me via priority shipping, and it should arrive by Monday. I should...

Heh. I think the first day of spring was last week, actually.

Oh, I understand. I thought you meant you don't view the beam in the open, even when you're taking a break from burning stuff. Why is it that the spot, which would damage unprotected eyes, does not damage the camera? Does it have to do with automatic exposure shifts that our eyes aren't as good...

So, maybe I'm silly, but why? I get not wanting to look at the dot while it's burning, but I would think the smokey beam itself would be pretty safe to look at. The laser is 'only' 50mw, and the room is bright, so blue light exposure shouldn't be too much of a concern.

Re: Scifi laser issues, is this normal? Don't worry about it! Also, $30 refund is great, thank you!

'Just a combination of two names'. Sure, right!

Re: Scifi laser issues, is this normal? Heh, he also gave me that number.

Oh, cool! I wonder how long something like that would remain effective. Would the birds get used to it, in the same way they get used to those plastic owls? Course, a laser dazzler is a completely different type of deterrent, but it's still an interesting question.

Very pretty! What sort of lens is it hooked up to?
