    Never success in tapping holes

    When I tap aluminum , I use w-d40 to help keep the threads of the finer taps clean. And as stated above, only turn the tap about half a turn, then back it out to clear chips. It's a slow process, but you will get clean smooth threads.

    Best/Favorite Laser Website?

    I would say you should defiantly buy from one of the builders here at LPF. I have seen better deals here than any china website! Many forum members have had problems with bad or non working lasers lately. Myself included. O-like sent me a piece of crap for $105.00 I could have spent just a...

    Powerful Crown upgrade 500mW green laser PROBLEM

    DjLscatt: if you do have to contact o-like, they take their time answering their emails. They give very simple replies. And they seem to like to drag it out as long as possible. I think in my case they were hoping to make miss the deadline of when I could do a paypal dispute. Good luck!

    Do not buy from o-like

    I took your advice and emailed them a few choice links to the fourm . Hopfuly someone there will look at them and realize they need to make some changes. They won't be hearing from me again.

    What do you do for a living

    I was just recently laid off from my job of 20 years, as a r&d supervisor at a maier mfg. An aftermarket Motorcycle, quad, and utv plastics manufacture . I designed and made the molds for their parts. I also am good with a lathe and mill. I would prototype all the brackets and hardware, so...

    for all those n00bs pointing at aircrafts!

    It's hard to beige that there are still people that stupid out there. I think it was at least three years ago when I first saw a clip on the local news here in ca. About some dumb ass doing something similar to this. I believe it made national headlines. But dispute all the attention it drew to...

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    Yep, I plan on just Buying some parts from someone here at LPF . At least I'll gain some "good" experience from this bad purchase . Anyone have any suggestions on what I can get to go into the original heat sink? The diode pocket measures 4.45mm I could drill it put to accept something...

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    I agree, customer relations is not their concern. Also their product quality is quickly going down hill. I have friends that bought lasers from them a year ago. And they still work. That's why I decided to buy from them in the first place. Now, all I see here on the forum , about them is...

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    Not a bad idea, tacoherder. I know you have been less than happy with them as well. They want me to send them the module, so they can determine what happened. Ya, like I have the patients to wait another month , or longer for them to tell me they are not going to do anything but try to tell...

    Diode Question - Blu Ray Power Rock

    That must be normal. I have two of these from o-like. They must use some cheap diodes because the laser I got from them did not work. Then I got them to send another module so I could switch it out. And both of the diode look just like yours. The one they sent me only lasted 5 days , of light use.

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    Ya no kidding! I emailed them, and they are trying to tell me that there is a problem with the Way I operate it. What the hell ? It is pretty simple. Put battery in , plus side to tail cap. Push on button. Turn off before 30 seconds. That's all I have done with the thing. It probably hasn't...

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    I just emailed them, I'm not expecting much in the way of coaoperation from them. I had to threaten to file a dispute with paypal in order to get them to send a replacement module to me. Now it is past the time i can do so. But I'll wait and see. Not much else I can do. Other than buying...

    $105.00. P.o.s.

    Quite simply: the $105.00 o-like sharp violet laser I bought , then had to wait almost a month for them to send me a replacement module for. Quit working , or rather went led on me this morning. It may have had a total of ten min. On time before it quit! I never left it on more than the...
