LMAO.........this thread is to funny. :crackup: TJ, you didn't post for 3hrs so Dave knew you got lucky or had diarrhea. It was a 50% risk. Dang TJ looks like you have been working out. :beer: MojoLA, if you would have read a while here before just jumping in with less that 101 level questions...

I hear ya. Sure makes you appreciate the beam shots posted. I've been fighting mine too. It's a Fuji S700 7.1mp. It has a ton of features I'm just now finding. :whistle: Auto anything just doesn't work. I did find the manual settings area after downloading the pdf. It has macro, super macro and...

Magicians will be doing this as a stage show trick in Vegas next. Chris Angel would have had it levitating.......... Very cool though. Or very hot. lol

dnar, that brass pillar is pretty neat, but it is limiting the heat transference. It can only transfer maximum at abt 90* downward. 45* each way from dead bottom. Then the width & depth of the pillar is a "critical orifice". The fan surely helps but it would be much better if it were drilled in...

Original deleted. I was missing the single cell feature.....duh. What if the toroid was wound 2:1 doubling its "ringback"?

I went with that shipper too for a couple. Woulds be nice to have a new source. I checked the previous ad and sure enough in my account the price is doubled from what I paid and shipping shows China now. No response from them yet on my inquiry. The 405nm will fool you on visibility vs power to...

Re: 940mW Mohrenberg Apollo Kit Review-Build Tutorial It looked like a solid build and using the adjustable focus feature of the original was just gravy. I like the look of the black heat sink face. If it would be marred, knowing the paint type and source makes that an easy touch up. Moh, I'm...

It is a nice effect. I sold my lathe many yrs ago.so dumb. Now I use the redneck version...... A drill or dermel tool......I do have a drill press for both. I had to modify the drill press because it was originally for a 3/8" B&D and now it wouldn't fit my 1/2". Ok..abt an hr to make it fit &...

Re: 940mW Mohrenberg Apollo Kit Review-Build Tutorial Great build & host. A thumbs up to you both. very nice. :gj: Good thing you kept the power down or the fire department would have been called. That poor CD case is a torture bed for comparison now. You should make it into some kind of...

Well, I just checked back with itemquickship pens I purchased. My prices are the same but I too see none listed. I sent an inquiry to see if he is going to have them available in the future. Maybe he just ran out and won't advertise them till he has them in hand. I hope!

Excuse me? Those aren't MY specs. That is whats on the pdf that Chuck sent me. They have a toll free number on their website and I'm sure a link from their ebay'd store.

Did you have it on the 9v battery too?

I have 2 I'm gonna try tomorrow. Here are the specs Chuck sent me. 1.Suitable for 20mw-250mW 650nm,660nm,808nm,980nm laser diode. 2.Constan current output to assure a stable power output by 4.0V-5.0Vinput. 3. Has outlet for connecting TTL device. 4.Size:10mmx19mm(WxL) 6.Recommended Power...

2 sets of wire red & black. PM sent :paypal:

I know why I didn't get picked. It wasn't the fact I've only been here a couple months. I think it was when I posted my over spec 5mw 532nm Green shoots a beam way farther than 532nm! :crackup:

I don't own a lathe anymore either. The way this hobby is going.....well....do I need to say it? lol I'd chuck it in a drill and take a rough file then finish it up. Slide it on a bolt with brass shim stock wrapped around it, washer , nut & tighten. It will usually make it fine through a small...

Re: SF-BW512L 12x BR sled GB *CLOSED* *NOW TAKING PAYMENTS* Not surprised on the COD. qumefox, people just appreciate the work it takes to do a GB I hope. I never did one for lasers, but doing all the stuff it takes is time consuming and can be aggravating. It's not like you misled anyone. They...

Ah, the puzzle solved. It was the IR diode. Good job. On my 1st sled tear down I had to go back to the thread and look at a pic and went with the heatsink as they were very diff to get the right one. Yes, that pic is now in the folder. lol There is just so much good info here and its hard to...

Hi all. I purchased one of these from DX I think. I'll post the link in the test results when completed. This is a very fun thing to experiment with. I do have some opinions on it though. I needed one because the last 2 yrs we have been doing various remodleings to the house and during the...
