    Why are all the good posts so old?

    Only a couple of members / scammers were driven out, but I think most left due to the website format change and / or personal circumstances. To be honest the website used to be a lot more user friendly and intuitive. There was also a rep system which many liked, some for personal status, others...

    Gball lens remove

    I press the diode with the Gball intact into a module. Then use a small flat head screw driver and lever between the rim of the Gball casing and the inside of the module. This means you pull towards the centre of the lens ie pivot on edge of Gball casing. Do this gently and move around the lens...

    DIY wax coating for aluminum parts / hosts

    Interesting and thanks for the tip. Al does stay nicely polished though, possibly due to the waxes in the polishing bars? And the fact that Al initially forms a thin colourless oxide coating which protects the surface ;) A neutral wax however would definitely be a very good idea for a newly...

    BlackBuck 6 POT!

    I also had a pot break off. You can of course reflow it, if you have the kit (have done this with ICs and resistors etc), but the connectors are big enough to solder back into place with a fine tipped soldering iron. Pretin both the contacts on the board and the tip of the iron. Touch the...

    Tesla with laser

    Thanks guys! Yes as Paul said AC. @ Paul no, no problem with focusing as I wanted the tesla and sparks in focus not the laser! ;) I could have increased the depth of field with a higher F-Stop but that would have given a much longer exposure and you wouldnt have seen the individual "lightning...

    Tesla with laser

    Thanks guys much appreciated and glad you like the pics! :beer: Thanks Chris! I have a canon 1DMk4, but you can use any camera where you can set manual exposure. I took the pics around twilight just as it was getting dark. That way I could use a longer exposure without blowing out the...
