    Have you ever seen a laser that moves up and down mechanically?

     ...

    No? Even better. Because prepare for one of the most simple but (kinda) amazing creations:

     

    (Inspired by Lockheedmartin's CD Reader)

     

    This laser can move up and down, so you can change where it shoots and melt pieces of targets that haven't been melted yet! The entire laser is movable and the piston is well protected.

     I have seen it, but couldn't you make it a bit hotter? -_- It isn't really powerful...

    @Jont (View Post) Sorry, but there's 3 complications to making it hotter:

     

    1. The entire laser's width is all the piston can push.

    2. These WALL heaters are the only best at pushing the entire laser (else the heater might malfunction/the laser will no longer work)

    3. Making the laser even stronger might cause one of the switches to melt.

    Grey, it's chance as well as skill. Many people have made excellent creations and they haven't got to the front page. I do believe that FP is calculated on how many votes you get in a short amount of time. In which case, the time of day when you publish your save may also affect this.

    yes..i'm quite sad now. i made a bunker(Very strong!), a wall(stronger than heaven's borders), a camera, a rock-paper-scissors game and all of them are just sitting there when similar saves by others rule the fp..
