I've just been doing other pointless activities with my life. I got turned off from LPF for a long time due to issues with members and the influx of people new to lasers so it seemed like an LC moment when I saw repeats of the same topics over and over. It seemed that the creativity of the forum was dropping with a decrease in awesome new DIY objects. I guess that also took part in my jealousy since I haven't had much money so I couldn't do any of it myself. But I'm going to try and slowly come back. Funny how I'm still about halfway down the first members page for the most posts though! haha ;D
