I can't be the only one, right? Just now an eight legged freak was dangling above me and I took great pleasure in gutting it with a 1.6W 445nm laser beam (Thanks Tinkertavernco!). Something about that snap-crackle-pop sound the fallen creepy creature makes followed by the small puff of smoke...
This thread is making me laugh in many ways this morning. Thanks everyone.
The choice of decor reminds me of this video I recently saw on YouTube.
Similar decor in Bryce Michael's room.
SO. Not interested anymore. Jeez. This escalated quickly.
@OP: All they were suggesting is that you use a middleman from the forum, a trusted member whom owns an LPM so that you could be an honest man and a man of your word, and sell a laser with the correct power advertised. PayPal won't...
I'm telling you, someone messed with him and soaked his stankbroccoli in formaldehyde and now he's having a very strange bad trip every time he smokes.
@Tallmonkey try shaving off all body hair. Yes all. All. I don't care if your girlfriend likes it Brazilian. You could have some acute over...
They are all Diode Pumped Solid State lasers, meaning a diode fires laser light through crystals to achieve the desired wavelength. The main reason for the higher price of yellow and blue DPSS lasers is how hard it is to make the crystals required, they make lots, but can only use a few, so they...
I bought a tritium vial just about a month ago from amazon, and I know you can't buy a tritium vial just anywhere in the United States, just like a high powered laser, I think it's illegal to import, but no effort is made to enforce it's ban once it's successfully stateside.. Thankfully in this...
Once you're a registered developer for apple you get invites to their famous keynotes to party with the guys in the turtlenecks. Worth it. iPhone 5! :D
When you can make a pretty good guess at the wavelength of anything, and you've seriously organized your closet by wavelengths. Having OCD along with the laser thing isn't so good. xD
When you've taken the suggestion of a few select members and only recently realized that you can light things...
@OP what are you smoking out of? I know some people who have had some strange symptoms after using crappy homemade aluminum pipes for extended periods during their medicinal moments.. Just wondering. It could be easily overlooked.
It's an unholy clusterf*ck but I've successfully RMA'd a laser with WL before. Stay on them, don't be rude even when it seems as if they couldn't care less and in a few months you should have a working version of the one you've returned. Idunno how refunds work with them, and I haven't heard of...
I hate this subject because of the laser ethics debate it spins up every single time. The truth is you can use a laser as a weapon, the problem is as our world has evolved over time different species have adapted to their habitats and therefore are more sensitive to different wavelengths, and...
