<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I will try to find an old carb. It
doesn't need to be at a right angle, in fact, that is where it really excels,
when you have fine details, it gets into the grooves and cleans it like
a champ.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">There really isn't any consumables on
this model, but they do include some extra lenses incase they get scratched.</font>

Laser Rust Removers- The future is here!</font>

<br><font size=3>That looks really cool! Wish I could afford one &
have enough use for it to be feasible. I hope the unit lasts long enough
to get your $$ worth. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>While watching the clip of cleaning what looked to be
a pewter or aluminum vessel, I wondered if it could be used to clean up
oxidized aluminum carburetors like old SU or Hitachi without removing enough
material to make them useless. Must the laser be at right angles to the
work?<br>

that I finally bought.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I found a vendor that youtubers had purchased
from with good luck. After asking them questions, they were happy
to point me to their source. </font><a href=http://www.fortunelaser.com/><font size=2 color=blue face="sans-serif"><u>http://www.fortunelaser.com/</u></font></a><font size=3>

<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The first thing I found, was that this
is a Chinese company and I was VERY hesitant to do business there.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I contacted their sales staff and found
Jason, an amazingly patient and quite well-spoken rep that took time to
promptly address all my questions. I finally settled on the laser
that seemed to be right for me. At nearly $10,000 (with shipping)
it wasn’t a casual purchase. But I figured, hell, I’m not married,
why not! 8>)</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Then I found out that I must do a wire
transfer to a Chinese bank and a PO to complete a purchase. No credit
card protection or anything like that. I was VERY concerned.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Then fate dealt me a small windfall and
I decided that I would take a chance. So I did the deal. Then,
when the laser finally arrived, it was damaged! (Clearing in shipping.)
However, Jason, worked with me 100%. First, hey sent me a new
power supply, but when I put that in, there were other issues. We
tried local troubleshooting over email. No joy. It was decided
that I would ship the unit back (at their cost) and they would send a new
one. Again, I was VERY concerned. However, during every step
of the way, Jason answered questions, gave me updates and did 100% of what
he said he would.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">So how does it work? I don’t even
know where to start. It cleans ANYTHING. Hell, I even tried
it as a laser hair removal system on my arm (which it so far seems to work.)
It will take plating off base metals. Ink off off paper, paint
off of metal, vaporize anything between the laser and surface.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Here are some videos of it from me…</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><a href="https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPbYCr9ju28SkVgcPYogCMLsTJN8J_aX9iVluDLgDEQ3-uuMwri2g77LoDfqOo94w?key=Q0Y5eWpad2JHN00xSXdoZ2EtOUFmMDdfWkk5b293"><font size=2 color=blue face="sans-serif"><u>https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPbYCr9ju28SkVgcPYogCMLsTJN8J_aX9iVluDLgDEQ3-uuMwri2g77LoDfqOo94w?key=Q0Y5eWpad2JHN00xSXdoZ2EtOUFmMDdfWkk5b293</u></font></a><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The videos didn’t come out that well,
and I’m not that experienced with it. There are tons of settings with
it to control how much ‘removal’ you get. But it is super easy to try
things as long as you can keep it at the right focal point.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If any of you are near NJ and want to
come and try it out, just let me know. There are many different types
of lasers (pulse and continuous), power levels, 100W to 3000w, and some
even can weld and cut also! So there is a lot to learn about this
new technology.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">PLEASE read this next part carefully…</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If you want to buy one for yourself (the
prices are coming down) please feel free to contact Jason at </font><font size=2 color=#e26200 face="sans-serif"><b>jason@fortunelaser.com</b></font><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
and tell him I sent you. He will be more than happy to help.
I do not get ANY consideration if you do this. HOWEVER, if
you are not comfortable dealing oversees and making huge bank transfers
to China, not to mention that you need to be a business or get hit with
tariffs on their end. I will be more than happy to be an intermediary.
But I would charge a small percentage for my effort, time, and risk.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">But feel free to ask me any questions,
come over and try it out on your own projects, or contact Jason directly.</font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="sans-serif">These lasers really are the future! </font>
