Abstract: A laser crafting apparatus for directing electromagnetic radiation toward a workpiece may include various features. For example, the laser crafting apparatus may include a material support tray that is removably supported within an internal volume of the laser crafting apparatus. Further, the apparatus may include pre-filter disposed in a ventilation pathway between a workspace region of the internal volume and an extractor fan. The laser crafting apparatus may include a laser carriage assembly that houses a laser module and the assembly may include a lens tray detachably coupled to the support structure of the laser carriage assembly. In various embodiments, the laser crafting apparatus includes a lid having a radiation attenuation layer and a fire suppression layer.

Abstract: An ice hockey stick template tool is disclosed for creating a personal tailored curved hockey stick blade of a hockey stick. The ice hockey stick template tool includes several blade parts that are configured to be assembled into a particular customized blade shape. The blade parts include several interchangeable heels, several interchangeable mids, and several interchangeable toes. A customized blade shape is created by a player assembling and adjusting one heel, one mid, and one toe, resulting in a blade profile which references a particular heel, a particular mid, and a particular toe. The blade profile is recorded and stored in a database that also stores all combinations of the interchangeable blade parts. The blade profile can then be transmitted electronically to a manufacturer or 3D printed to create the customized hockey stick the player desires.

Abstract: The present invention relates to non-aqueous emulsions stabilised by silica particles and to processes for making them. The invention further comprises: a particle stabilized oil-in-polar (o/polar o/p) emulsion comprising: a) a dispersed oil phase, b) a continuous polar phase substantially free of water, c) a particulate solid which is a silica particle dispersant possessing surface silanol groups (SiOH) sufficient to stabilize the emulsion, and where the emulsion is substantially free of emulsifiers, surfactants; and wherein the oil phase (a) is dispersed as discontinuous droplets in the polar phase (b); the silica particle dispersant (c) is absorbed on the surface of the oil phase (a); and the silica particle dispersant (c) is partially wetted by the polar phase (b).
