From The Depths Laser Tutorial



Hey guys Ballparkkenan here and today
we'll be learning about lasers and how to build them. We'll be making a
weaponized laser system and a laser anti munition system. First we'll place the
multi-purpose laser. This is the main component of a laser system.

This shows
you some important things such as the lasers damage output, the amount of
energy the laser has and the AP value of the laser. Next we'll place some laser
connectors. These are used to connect the following
components, the multi-purpose laser, Laser coupler,
laser combiner, laser missile defense and the laser transceiver. With the
connectors placed, will place the laser coupler.

These take power from the laser
cavities, that will place in a second, and send it to the multi-purpose laser for
use. Each coupler makes their own laser and then they're combined in the
multi-purpose laser. For this example I'll place two but you can place as many
as you like. I placed them two bucks apart to allow for the laser pumps.

Next you
have the option of placing Q switches. You can add up to four of these and they
attach to the couplers. These make your laser firing pulses rather than in a
continuous beam. This gives your laser a small amount of time to recharge it
between pulses.

Every cue switch you add will increase the rate of fire by one, one cue
switch will make your laser fire once per second, two cue switches will make
your laser fire two times a second and so on. Next we'll place the laser cavities.
These attach to couplers and rows and store 100 units of energy each. The more
of these you have the more energy is available to your multi-purpose laser.
Which increases its damage output. You also have the option to use a single
laser cavity instead.

I can't really recommend them as you get more out of 4
pumps with each cavity and a storage cavity. The storage cavity stores 40
times the energy capacity of the regular cavities but the laser pumps can't
connect to it. With the cavities placed will place the laser pumps. There are two
versions you can place.

The laser pump and the 3 meter laser pump. The 3 meter
laser pump is just a more powerful version of the regular laser pump.
They take engine power and convert it into energy the cavities can use. The
laser pump uses 100 energy power to make 50 laser energy. The 3 meter pump uses
300 engine power to make 150 laser energy.

These attach to the top bottom
and sides of your laser cavities. You want to use just enough of them to keep
your laser charged when it's firing. If you use too many you'll waste engine power.
Which may or may not be a concern to you. Next we have the option of placing laser
to stabilizers and frequency doublers.

These are both placed in line with the
laser cavities. The laser destabilizer increases the amount of laser energy
used, which increases the amount of damage the laser can do. The downside to
this is that the laser may not be able to recharge fast enough, to keep up with
the greater energy drain. This will result in a very rapid decrease in
damage output.

To fix this you can place two, three
meter laser pumps on each cavity. If your laser pumps still can't keep up, add a
single laser pump and if that doesn't work try removing a few too destabilizers.
Another option would be reducing the number of laser combiners or munition
defense blocks. The destabilizers can be quite useful and make your laser more
space efficient. Just make sure your laser pumps can keep up with the energy
draw.

With that said I would still use as few of these as possible as the higher
damage boost they give becomes outweighed by their high energy
consumption. The frequency doubler increases the armor-piercing value of
your laser. How high this number should be is dependent on what your laser will
be shooting at. Look at the armor value of the block your laser will be shooting.
Your laser should have an AP value of 2 more than the armor value of the block.
For example, if your laser is shooting at metal blocks which have an armor value
of 15 your laser should have an AP value of 17.

This is just a recommendation and
you can get away with an AP value lower or higher than the blocks armor. Now we
can place the laser combiner. This is what weaponize the laser and is
essentially the lasers version of an advanced cannon firing piece. We won't be
able to fire laser yet as we haven't connected it to our multi-purpose laser.
Multiple combiners will divide two laser damage between them.

If your laser does
200 damage to combiners will do 100 damage apiece. You can also place a laser
color and a wavefront adjuster. The laser color gives you the ability to change
the size and color of your laser. It can be placed on the sides top bottom or
back of your laser combiner.

The wavefront adjuster trades some of your
combiners damage for a small amount of shield and smoke piercing. It connects to
the top bottom back or sides of the laser combiner. Finally we can place some laser
optics to make our laser more accurate. We can also place a laser steering
optics to give the laser a greater field of fire.

Next we'll connect our laser combiner to
our laser system. To do this you can use the laser connector or the laser transceiver. The laser
transceiver connects the lasers to other components without the need to be
physically connected. This connection can also pass through blocks.

The transceiver
can receive the laser connection from all of it's sides but can only transmit
from the top. To connect laser combiners on turrets, place the laser transceiver
in the middle of the turret block and then place one below the turret
block. With the laser combiner connected you'll
be able to fire and test your laser. Remember, if your laser is running out of
energy you'll need to either remove some or all of the laser just stabilizers add
more laser pumps or decrease the number of laser combiners.

To make a laser anti
munition system or LAMs, you will need to place the laser munition defense
block. These have a hundred and eighty degree field of view so make sure they
can see what you want them to shoot at. These are treated as combiners so the
laser damage is divided between them. You'll want to try and place as few as possible.
I'd recommend that the laser used for these do at least 250 damage per
munition defense block and have a minimum ap value of 10.

A laser below
this damage will have a hard time shooting down multiple incoming shells
and missiles. As for the number of Q. Switches you should have I prefer to use
4 Q switches as they make the laser more energy efficient. Next will need to place
some munition warners.

These detect incoming projectiles and allow your
laser defense to fire on them. You want to place at least one of these in each
direction and make sure they're connected to your vehicle's AI. With that done your laser defense system
will be able to engage enemy munitions. You can also use passive radar and
passive sonar to detect incoming missiles and torpedoes.

Although this
doesn't replace the munition warner's. Keep in mind that in order for the
passive radar to work, the missile will need to use an active radar seeker. Your laser system will now be able to
engage torpedoes. Lastly, I'd recommend having a set of batteries with an electric motor to provide extra power when the laser is used.

This will help
deal with the power spikes the laser causes. Lasers can have multiple laser
cavities spread throughout a vehicle and be linked with transceivers. This is
useful for redundancy or to make powerful lasers within vehicles that
have space constraints. If you have both a weaponized laser system and a defense
laser system, I'd recommend you have two separate multi-purpose lasers so they
aren't competing with each other over laser energy.

I hope this video gave you
a better idea of how lasers work and how to build them. If you have any questions
put them in the comments below. Thanks for watching!!.

FAQ Miter Saw Laser Adjustment



(Light upbeat music) - Hi, I'm Patrick with Ryobi Power Tools. Today I'm gonna show you how to adjust the laser guide on your
Ryobi Quarter Miter Saw. I'll be demonstrating on
a Ryobi model TSS 102L. But the steps are the same for most models of Ryobi Quarter Miter
Saws with laser guides.

To do the adjustment
you'll need a padlock. With the saw unplugged make sure the miter and bevel angles
are set to zero degrees. Using the work clamp secure a piece of material up against the miter fence. Plug the saw back in and make a slight cut, scoring the wood.

Allow the blade to come to a complete stop and raise it back up. Unplug the saw and use your padlock to lock the switch trigger. This will protect against
accidental starting. Plug the saw back in and
turn on the laser guide.

Using the laser adjustment screw turn either clockwise or counterclockwise. The laser is properly aligned when it's lined up with the left edge of the kerf. Once your laser is adjusted and aligned properly you
can remove the padlock. We hope this has been helpful for you.

As always make sure you're wearing the proper safety gear when
you're ready to get to work. If you'd like tips and project
ideas for your Miter Saw visit Ryobitools.Com

CRAZY LASERS AND SCARY BOMBS - Chrono Bomb Challenge



     Look at her, look at her stance you guys need to study the stance because Mama knows her stuff. Look at this laser field! Whoo! Are you ready to go under some scary lasers? Yes Are you ready to defuse a bomb? I was born ready! Are you ready to defuse a bomb? YEA! Today we are going to have a Chrono Bomb Challenge! This is Chrono Bomb and the wonderful people at Patch sent us this game and we are gonna play it today. We're gonna have a little challenge. Chrono bomb is a fun little game here...

You have to cross the laser field before it's too late. You guys ready for a little challenge? Do you guys like my Super Spy Pants? They're my Super Spy Pants. Let's open it up, lets see what we have here. Let's see what we got in this baby! Laser beam, obviously it's not a real laser beam because if they were real laser beams how much would this game cost Mama Bee.

Eight million dollars. The game would cost eight million dollars if they were real laser beams. So there are strings that look like lasers and they're gonna be connected to the bomb and we're gonna try it. What we're gonna do is hook up these clips and we're gonna have a Chrono Bomb Challenge, okay? Let's go hook this up to the other room.

Let's do this! We have our laser field set up here. What do you guys think? Oooooooooooh This is a very... Complex laser field because you have to go over and under the laser field to defuse the bomb that is set up over here. Mama Bee's all set up, she's got her heist clothes, until your heist your super spy heist clothes Wow, whoa, if this was a heist clothes competition Mama Bee would win, I think.

I got my heist hat on, I got my wolfie shirt, and I have my heist pants. So, if I was going to do a heist, I would be wearing this getup right now. Mister Monkey's got his slickity slick going on. That's his super heist slickity slick hair.

Miss Monkey's already trying out the little course here, she's got her heist pants. I think we're all ready to go. We're ready for this! Let's pretend this is a heist, and we're trying to defuse the bomb which is set up over there. So you have one minute to go through the laser field and even if you hit the string you can keep going, it just cuts the time a little bit So if you hit the lasers keep going! Don't stop! Don't stop! Finish it! Complete the mission! Who wants to go first? Ohh...

We're gonna get... Mister Monkey! He's gonna go first. Are you ready? Set.. There you go! That's OK Monkey, go ahead! Let's go monkey lets go! Let's go Mr.

Monkey lets go! Woah! Good job, Mister Monkey! 12 Seconds to go! Mister Monkey goes up and over the laser beams! Now Miss monkey is gonna go! There you go miss monkey! Ooh! Miss Monkey! 11 Seconds! So far Mister Monkey's in the lead! Oh! Mister Monkey, Mister Monkey's in the lead! But guess what? Mama Bee's next. Oh! Here comes Mama Bee! Mama Bee, are you ready? We have to be, oh look at her look at her stance. You guys need to study the stance because Mama... Knows her stuff look at this laser field! Whoo! Ready...

Set 25 seconds! Oh, Mama Bee's the new champion! Mama Bee, is in the lead! She saved the whole team because she's the quickest, she's the super sleuthiest so far. She's a super spy: Mama Bee. Wow, well, you know what?Well, you are in the Chrono Bomb lead right now, Mrs. Mama Bee.

You guys need to take some notes here. This is education. Mama Bee has got the skills. She knows how to go up and over the laser field and defuse that bomb.

Maybe you guys know a little bit of math and a little bit of science, but what's also important is to go through a laser field once in a while and defuse a bomb. But guess what? It's Papa's time. Oh! As a bonus, I'm going to draw some mission cards and I'm going to go ahead and pick up a camera, a flash drive and I'm going to pick up some gloves on the way. What do you guys think about that? Mama Bee, do you want to do the honors and press that button for me? Of course.

Ready.. Set.. Go! I have to be more gentle because the laser field is very- oh, whoopsa! Oh man, dude! Maybe I'm too slick. The bomb just went off guys.

I just blew the heist. That hat is not very lucky. I don't think it's a very lucky hat. Thank you again for watching and thank you to the folks at Patch Products for hooking us up with Chrono Bomb.

We're gonna keep playing I got to learn, I got some skills. And Mama Bee's got the skills to pay the bills. Oh yeah, so Mama Bee gets to do the winning dance. Yeah! Are you ready to defuse a bomb? Yes!.

Can a Laser Cut Hair



Okay so a couple problems I see so far is the laser is just burning straight into the skull (duh) Hi it's me and i've got way too much hair and i've also got now a tiny laser Normally my mom cuts my hair I'm embarrassed from saying that okay? Well I feel embarrassed saying that but whatever. I decided to switch things up and we'll try to use the laser to do it zI think, we'll just kind of take it off it's mount and kilter it out. No focusing or anything. Put a spinning chair right here and you can spin.

Everyone's probably saying it's a terrible idea and you shouldn't do it And I agree but I still think we should test it let's go to the store. So i'm thinking we'll take one of these we don't need, but this is just showing you what the end product kind of like hopefully what the hair ends up looking like. Just a nice high contrast line Then we need hair where *Drops fake head rip* Let's get a wig. Let's see if they have wigs here That's a picture frame.

We could make a wig with like yarn uGh Unless we can find a wig. We're gonna ask someone but I don't think they have a wigs here AHHHH Okay, let's unscrew the tube. It's held in with these, like pipe looking things, and we're just gonna See what they can, do about it point it sideways It's like right out here Oh also, don't do this. I'm a trained.

Professional Don't look at me like that There's gotta be a better way to do this.This is really bad. Let's just make it look, safe and then we'll cut to  it that way it kind of looks like we knew exactly what to do? Alright so this is our setup We got our safety cardboard and our safety metal pipe and that holds this nice and secure-ish and so now we need, a spinning platform and a wig. Let's take another quick moment to check out the condiment machine. I think the reason i've been keeping, is i'm like What if in the future we decided to make another machine that makes hamburgers or hot dogs, we could reuse this and I'm not gonna reuse it because it's disgusting So I really should just throw it away I'm not really sure where it was going with that let's go get the spinning chair dadadada [ MUSIC ] dude I think we might be geniuses.

We get a clamp? Now we need another clamp shove this oh there's a hole in it wow uh yeah, so Good. Now we just got to find the thor wig. Maybe it's in the shed. Oh no WHa-

WHaeresmy

thor wig Where's the thor wig Oh no.

Oh no! Our strawberry vase Oh no! Oh Yea My dad broke the strawberry vase And all we have is a strawberry top hat now. That was our garbage can for the hot dog video and now it's gone forever look it he didn't even tell me. He like probably tried to dispose of the evidence and Hey did you break my strawberry vase. Oh you did, you threw it away.

Ohh Thanks I appreciate it. Goodbye Thanks dad! But where is it? You know what whatever, we got better things to, do and it's starting to rain, how About, we find the thor wig and then come back Oh man [ Music ] So we found our thor wig, which I think is actually maybe an elsa wig but just try to straighten it out We're just gonna lop it off, oh Oh yeah Also I kind of feel we should make up the doll so it looks more human. Holy crap this is a lot of hair Jeez Oh my god come on Wow this hurts my fingers Hey you can't even tell Well. Maybe a little bit Hey it's me  L O G A N  P A U L.

I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! This is horrifying Coolant flowing! This is such a stupid idea. Are we ready? Um, okay. Oh that's very Yellow. So a couple problems I see so far is the laser is just burning straight into the skull It's on fire.

That's not a part of the plan I can't tell if it's cutting hair or if it's cutting into the skull Definitely into the skull, back here. It simply peels right off This is very good progress you know, not every invention is a success at first. This isn't even real hair Oh it looks like a really, bushy, eyebrow Oh god. It's like the same color as the fake hair Oh it smells.

Wow! That smells really bad! I'm starting to think we'd call it quits, and just finish the job the old-fashioned way with a pair of scissors  -  minus some minor fifth and sixth-degree burns This hairstyle is pretty dope I just got my hair cut. They didn't let us film inside. Could you salvage this What would you turn this into [Natalie]- A pixee? [William]- Yeah [Natalie]- Maybe [William]- Or just shave it off and let it all grow out again Technique could have been better. From a wearable standpoint Like a -10.

[William]- Okay, I was hoping for something above a 2 but. Do you want to keep gary Sure! Yes! Now I don't have to throw it away! [Natalie]- Thanks for letting me cut your hair! [William]- Thanks for cutting my hair, oh leave a leave recommendation if you've got something that, we can, stick in a laser Put in the comments. Like the good old days! Alright, see ya Oh! Hello! You ever stop and think about what your doing with your life (Subtitles by Alex).

Can a Laser Cook Potato Chips



One potato, two potato, three potato, four. Cashier: You want a bag for this?
William: I like potatoes. Hardly any of these stayed on the table. They all rolled off.

It's truly hot! We got regular potatoes. I think that's a sweet potato, maybe a yam. I don't really know. And these little finger potatoes and then potato chips.

This isn't gonna work at all but
we're gonna try it. Put the vent in. What are you yelling about? Hey. Off-camera: How's it going? W: It's pretty good.

We're trying to laser cut potatoes. If it smells like potatoes, um... Well that's your problem now. Which is up? There's this much crap.

What is it caught on? There we go. That wasn't so bad. Should we start with the big potato or a small potato? Yeah. Yes? Geez I'm gonna laser beam it.

You gonna - you ready? Alright. Bada-bing! 3, 2, 1, Pierce! Did anything happen? Ah, I hear something. What if I test fire? Uh-oh. Was that on? Oh, no.

This is bad. What's going on back hear with this just trash pile? Who does this? This high voltage line is straight up broken! That is really scary! Where was that hanging? And why is it severed? What?! *Gasp* Ohhh... I think I did something bad. Jankey is relative, um...

The relative jank was still pretty high, though, so let's unplug everything. Let's turn power off to the house. Let's tell the city to shut the - shut the power plant down. That way there's no way in hell anything here is turning - oh God! I think it's fixed! I could be wrong.

Probably am wrong. I'm usually wrong. Aw yeah! Business as usual. Hey! That went through.

It does not smell good. It looks rotten! No. Nope. Nope! I don' think we're cutting through the whole potato.

We could cheat by cutting it in half, but that's why we bought the tiny potatoes! I'm gonna make a flat spot. That's better. We could make a program to cut slices in Illustrator. Like, just cut a bunch of lines.

Should we do that? Okay, let's do that. Is there an E at the end of potato? 100 Power. I don't know man, 2 speed? 1 Speed? Hey! That's not bad. These are gonna be nasty potato chips.

No, no, no. No. No. No! No! NO! Yep, that's pretty gross looking.

Wow. It's crunchy like raw potato. Doesn't really taste like anything which makes me think that I'm just tasting raw potato. Is this your drinking cup? Aw, too bad.

Now we gotta grease them up. They still feel like wet, like rubbery. I think we just need to like easy-bake oven it by pulling it as far away as we possibly can. To do that, we gotta take the table off.

God, why do I keep so much crap on top of this thing? I feel like I could make a sorta impromptu Mr. Potato Head right now. Shove that into him. Shove that into him.

There you go! As long as he is laying down Oh - oh, oop. What are we doing? Why are we doing this? Oh no, you are going to make things worse. I guarantee it. Huagh! Good sir, would you like to tun the laser back on? I don't know if we need - I wanna leave ventilation off.

Sometimes when I hang out with Cameraman John, I feel like I'm talking to myself like a crazy person. Hey! That's kinda working! Do you see it? Curling up? Is that wood? I can't tell if that's a piece of wood or - I don't know man. I think we're like 80% of the way there. You know what? That's a potato chip.

It's a little bit, like charred, but other than that, it's not bad. See that one's a little bit - those are a little rubbery. Let's feed them to the neighbors. W: It's crunchy? Neighbor 1: It's good! W: Tastes a little burnt?
1: A little burnt.

Neighbor 2: Oh, you seasoned it, too? W: Yeah, It's just for looks. W: It's like a potato chip?
2: Yeah. No, that's just like a potato chip. 1: They're good.

Gary, you should try one W: Why are you guys all like half naked? 1: Oh, we were at the beach all day. It was hot, man. It was hot. 2: We were doing weird things.

Gary: They're kinda cool.
W: Nice! Thanks guys. So, I - you can make potato chips with a laser. I'm out! Going to the neighbor's house.

You can come if you want, Cameraman. I'll just leave this. Bees!.

Anti Falco Laser Technique - Super Smash Bros. Melee



Shoutout to Bob Thunder for the donation to bring in an earlier tutorial What's up guys you already know who it is, it's me, Kira. And today we're gonna go over the most important anit-Falco strat in the entire game. We call it take laser - blank As in take the laser hit and then do an action. Here are some examples: Take laser is actually broken.

It's usually better to do this than shielding lasers Because you have more freedom of movement and can dash out of them instead of having to jump or wavedash. Which are both slower than simply running. Take a look at this clip: See how close the marth is to the falco? And the laser hits marth and yet still falco cannot reach marth in time with a short hop aerial. This is how strong take laser is.

It makes you 100 times more mobile and difficult to hit. From a falco perspective, This is actually a nightmare. As your lasers are basically rendered ineffective. The best way to practice this is with 20XX.

By making sure a Falco CPU is in the player 2 slot, Hold R and press right on the D-Pad To make him shoot short hop lasers indefinitely Then practice dashing in between them. Some players even prefer to simply walk towards a falco to corner them and get attacks out in this method as well. Forcing the falco to make more commital decisions instead of sitting back and lasering forever You can also do the same thing in the air. Every character can buffer a jump out of laser By pressing X or Y any time during the hitstun animation You can also spam other attacks in a similar fashion.

Here are some examples with other characters And of course, take laser sheild can be useful as well. As many times if a falco sees you being hit by lasers They will assume they can get a free hit in Only to hit a shield too early and get counterattacked Take laser does take a lot of practice but it is absolutely crucial to beating falco so be sure to learn this Thanks for watching guys is a laser camping falco the most annoying character to deal with? Or are the people who complain just too lazy to learn how to get around it? Let us know in the comments and I'll see you next week..

Advanced Laser ProjectorDIY



Make a platform of ice cream sticks. Install the electric motor and glue the mirror. It is necessary to have a variable resistor of 0-4.7 K and a transistor. Solder the transistor to the resistor.

To the middle leg we connect plus. To the left leg, we attach a plus to the electric motor. We connect the lasers to the external power supply and the switch. In this way, the laser can be turned on from the outside.

Install mirrors and lasers on the platform. We made such a scheme. But you can set it on your own. Connect power.

Plus goes to the middle leg of the resistor. We take the minus from the electric motors. I cut out holes for each mirror regulator. Also the switch of each laser.

Turn on the lasers and create shapes. Each change in the result creates a new shape..
