My pleasure Kevlar! Happy turning... ! M :)

As with anything in engineering drill bits are also made to tolerance. +/-0.1mm is not unusual at all. That's why they are so cheap and even two drills from the same manufacturer can therefore differ in diameter by up to 0.2mm from each other. I would also not recommend turning down a drill bit...

What can I say? Sometimes prices stay good, (and they did for a while), but the best deal for a 12x at the moment is either O-like or Rayfoss. I would like to think we forced the price down with this GB but who knows... I have been in touch with my supplier since the new price from these other...

Ban done guys so I'm here now! I'm kind of glad the other GB thread was closed as it was getting confusing posting in the 1st GB thread so please just post here if you have any questions regards the GB or PM me. Thanks for the patience, M :)

I hate to say it Toaster but you did hardly any research when you joined. You were one of the people Auto is talking about who wanted it spoon fed. If, "We", had a quiz like you suggest, (not the first time this has come up as an idea), you wouldn't be here as you would have failed. I have...

A Tyre Murder Fund? I'm in! :D M :)

Actually Lazy Laser, you have a link to a laser supplier in your sig too. Do you represent them? If not then you should really remove it for the same reasons. I understand the want to promote a company you may have had good service from but they are the only ones allowed to advertise in their...

^ There you go again with your, "Don't buy burning lasers", preaching... This written by someone who's first inexperienced order was a cheap 1W 445nm from a company with questionable ethics! You should really stop the hypocrisy. As you are so fond of your right to do whatever the hell you like...

An LED emits neither Coherent light nor Monochromatic light. Two things a laser must do. M :)

^ I have 7 to sell! :na: He says crossing his fingers, closing eyes tightly and whispering quickly, "Please be in the UK. Please be in the UK. Please be in the UK..." M :)

^ All good advice here. I would also recommend <5mW. If you go for a 532nm green, you should also be sure it has an IR filter as these lasers can also output much higher levels of uncollimated IR, (infrared), without one. It could be argued that this is not of prime importance with a sub 5mW as...

Please tell me that drawing isn't wax crayon?!!! :thinking: :p Just kidding, actually it's a pretty clear depiction of what you meant and shows the difference between long and short Focal Length lenses very well. Good sketching! (For those that don't know; the Long Focal Length lens is on the...

^ Yes I did ped, apologies, I'm also pretty busy at college so don't always get to reply as swiftly as I'd like at the moment. PM sent... M :)

^ Well it's been over a month and you're still here. You haven't gone away yet... ? M :)

Yes Mike there is! Please see the first post in this thread - http://laserpointerforums.com/f55/12x-sled-gb-round-2-now-closed-order-56329.html#post795051 It's been a while on this one for reasons beyond my control and mentioned in the thread above, (sport and terrorism), but they are now...

Hey guys, update in the first post... ... Package arrived! @ BB - Yes, I see O-like has been busy sourcing and it looks like I'm out of the game on a GB. No way I can match their price unless my supplier has had a price drop. Believe me when I say, I am looking into it... ! M :)

Hi diodelaser and guys, Just to say I have been trying to help here via PMs but we are still unsuccessful. A few notes... We are working with a Microboost here and a dummy test load from RKCSTR although I wasn't aware these used a 2K resistor as DL has told me through PM? :thinking: ...

I see your point but there are all sorts of videos, posts, threads with this kind of thing. You just have to look for it. There really is no need to, "draw people in". There are plenty of people finding this site without that. If you just want to watch lasers doing stuff then go to youtube. I'm...

Sorry dnar, opinions are no longer 2 cents in this economic climate! :p (Shipping must also be included too... ) I did just receive a note from a member saying they are leaving and where they are going. I don't think you ever really leave a forum though. You just don't post for a while. I...

You can amuse your dog another way with a laser commonly bought from cheap Chinese suppliers. Once you've seen the green get dimmer and dimmer and finally fade to dim red you can see how far you can throw it and have your dog run after it and bring it back... You can also amuse your cat with...
