When Dimitri put that defraction grating in front of that gasser it was a magical moment, awesome!
And you have captured that moment brilliantly!

Thanks for the pictures

I wish I was able to come over to there

But next time I most certainly will and can
Same go's for a huge increase in laser graphics and new stuff, because my school is almost over
I made it to my exams and am now practicing for my ending exams.

WARNING REGARDING MUGS PROVIDED AT UKLEMS

Just received this message from an attendee, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

"hi paul
question who done those printed mugs for you ??
who ever it was get a refund
just used mine dam near killed me too.
what ever they used to coat the mug after printing came off in big flakes and i guzzled down my tea and choked on aload
plastic looking flakes.
just thought you should know and warn others who have one not to use them "

These mugs were printed at a place in blackpool at grand cost of £3.50 each about two years ago on route to a LEM , must admit mine has been in almost daily use for two years with no probs apart from a bit of fading from use in dishwasher , i apologise in advance for any issues arising , but their creation was done with best intentions ,not to kill off any laserist compeition in scotland .........with little intrest in them they have been stored in my garage through a couple of harsh Scottish winters so may have afftcted coating ...

PLEASE CLEAN AND CHECK THOUROUGHLY BEFORE USE

Hi Paul

My mugs are (and have been) used every single day without any problem at all, likewise I have had one since they were first available at a LEM a couple of years ago. Mine are also subject to the daily round in the dishwasher.

The mugs that flake tend to be the ones that have a thermal coating (change colour with heat), and these are not that kind of mug. I believe these mugs are simply screenprinted straight on to the glaze and I am at a loss to see how this could have occur.

Maybe it was a single rogue mug that had got into the system, perhaps it had been coated with something before being printed and had not been noticed. I do have some experience in this field as I used to be involved in a printing business.

Still, I guess it's better to issue a warning...
