Very good writeup Andrew. There are no accidental gun shootings, only mistakes and negligence by the holder of the gun. The same will be true of laser "accidents". Ed

And here you are today, all growed up and still playing with fire (aren't we all? :eg:). This is a good topic to emphasize safety. Like an earlier poster, I shot a TV screen with a laser. Fortunately it was a lower power pointer and nothing was harmed. Now that I have higher powered units...

I guess I read that wrong. Since there was no space between the list number and the list item, I read it as all one number, 2.22 mm. Using my best Emily Litella voice, "Nevermind." :o Ed

A pointer indicates you want a handheld. 2.22mm? The diodes alone are larger than that, not even counting the heatsink. :thinking: Let us know if you find one. :crackup: Ed

Re: Fs: CUSTOM LASER HOSTS, NEW HOSTS ADDED TODAY FOR 6W DIODE. 7/5/15 Yes, those three carbon fiber hosts look very nice and I'm definitely thinking about getting one or more of them for some future builds I have in mind, but this one, with the side momentary switch, looks like it would be...

Re: Fs: CUSTOM LASER HOSTS, NEW HOSTS ADDED TODAY FOR 6W DIODE. 7/5/15 I'm interested in the last host shown at the bottom of your first post on page one. Please let me know how long it would take for you to make another one and how I should send the money. This is the description: The...

Jetlaser has a very good reputation on this forum. I bought a DPL 532nm laser several years ago when JL was just starting up and have always been happy with it. It's a high quality build. Grey is a great guy to work with too. Ed

Good catch guys. Yes, I was thinking Ophthalmologist when I replied. You want a real MD type doctor. Ed

The faster you get to an optometrist to have your eye checked, the more likely it is you will be able to minimize the damage that might have been caused. Getting the right treatment within the first few hours is critical as the eye tries to heal itself. There's a thread here on laser eye...

When I was about eleven or twelve YO we lived in a big old house and I had my own bathroom attached to my bedroom. One morning as I was washing up I reached up to pull the metal pull chain that was the on/off switch for the light over my sink. At the same time I grabbed a faucet to turn on the...

Thanks TJ, Helios, rhd and others who are working to find ways to catch up with Steviedezie. I filed my IC3 complaint and if others in the buy do that too we may get some LE and legal muscle working on this. I didn't lose that much in Stevie's caper compared to others in the buy, but it's the...

On the first link I get a "currently not available" message. Her's is still up, but for who knows how long. He'll probably get her to take her page down as soon as she gets home from work. Better take screen shots and captures while we can. Ed

I thought that perhaps if he moved he might have a different IP address that wouldn't be spotted so easily if he signed up with a different account name. But, yes, as a guest he could read all he wanted without being spotted. Ed

Don't hold your breath waiting for that reply. On July 8 this was posted: It sounds obvious to me that he's deliberately avoiding all attempts to contact him and his girlfriend answered his phone when he was out and couldn't tell her not to answer that. BH also posted on June 29th that...

Well, I paid him by PayPal with funds straight from my bank account, no credit card involved, so I may be out of luck unless someone knows how to get PP to refund money after the 45 day period has passed.

I'm in the same boat too although, as bhwollen said, you're in deeper moneywise than me. I sure hope this can be resolved. Ed

I committed for a 100 ft last wednesday, Msg # 39, but I didn't get a PM about payment. Am I in? Please let me know about payment. Ed

No rush here. I'm happy to wait for a good build. :) Ed

Re: Community Focus Knob - Group Buy - 90% FULL! So, are we still waiting for a couple of people to pay before this order can be placed and the countdown to delivery started? :( ?

BOAT FISHING?? At this time of year? Heck, around here the ice fishing is considered dangerous now. This is known as the "bad skiing" season. Getting too hard to avoid the slush and rocks. This morning (I'm not kidding) we didn't get one of our newspapers that we subscribe to because...
