Importing Laser from China for 20 May 2007

I am thinking of setting up a sign making business and as part of this I am looking to get a Laser Engraver/cutter from China as they are way cheaper that those in Europe, 10 times as much in some lasers case's. I unfortunately know very little of importing stuff from china especially from companies that give prices as FOB and payment as TT. I would like help in this, mainly in who I have to talk to to get the Laser here, Freight Forwarders and Custom Brokers are some I understand I need. The Laser is in China and I am looking to bring it into the West of Ireland, someone to handle all the paperwork or most of it is what I need the most. Anyone who can help give a IM or email please. If you do this all the better and if you sell laser engravers or cutters 40-60W give me a message as well with a quote/pricelist as always interested in more information.
Anyone able to help me??
GONE OFF IMPORT DUE TO BEING A PAIN IN THE WALLET ON THIS SIDE

Mp001 Airsoft Rifle for 20 May 2007

have a JP MP001 sniper rifle, wood coloured plastic body, 3-12x mil scope, stand and 2 x spare mags and 6,000 .25g, 6,000 .20g and 8,000 .12g or so ammo. My problem started a while after I starting using the rifle, in that I noticed it used to slip forward and double load, nothing major just a shotgun load. Then it got worse and started firing without the trigger being touched at all. This took the head of the safety knob off, Now its real bad and the bolt will not even hold on the catch when being pushed forward to load. The reason as far as I can make out is that the Piston sear is worn somewhat. I filed the edge of the sear assembly where it contacts and filed some of the material off the pin to the side of the piston sear. This resulted in it lasting about a hundred shots before starting to slip again. I am driven up the wall looking for a replacement piston sear. Gunners who I got it don't sell spare parts and the VSR 10 gspec has similar but not 100% compatible parts. I looked up a guy edgi and he has new replacement sears whoever I have to buy new cylinder and piston too, cost of these replacement upgrades are the same as what I paid for the whole gun €190. with this price I am tempted to buy VSR parts and file the hell out of them, but their potmetal as well and will probable wear out fast as well.
Any one got a source of cheaper parts or know where I can get upgrade (steel) parts for less.
STILL LOOKING THOUGH ATTEMPTING TO HAND MAKE AS WELL

Currently 75% complete in tuning homemade steel sear just have to get the pin right and stop it jamming the cylinder. Will post finished pics in day or two.

Further update
fucked up the small spring that holds the sear up so project on hold until fixed.

Xbox Eprom Ripping 20 May 2007

I have a xbox I received, that had been soft modded and apparently fucked. As all I got on start up was a Error code 06 and a flashing lights on the front. This apparently meant it was useless, it had been error code 05 and then hot swapped resulting in the error code 06. I am doing what was done on lamma.com to take the eeprom direct from the chip itself. I currently have the reader build, now I have to get the old PC functional, transfer poly prog and connect the serial reader and run the program. If all gos to plan I should be able to get the Eeprom from the sram chip and discover the password from it via liveinfo and fix my harddrive. If necessary I will format the HD and just copy the files from a new xbox on to it. and lock it with the boards password and hopefully boot up normally.
have got the Eeprom.bin from the chip after a while, ran LiveInfo v3.0 to get the HD unique key saved/printed and wrote it down. got the xbox HD in PC and no unlocked and locked with the password EXACTLY as wrote down. Plug HD in xbox and switch on and get.. Error code 06 and red/greed flashing light as before. I think something is either gone wrong or I can read the chip but the xbox cant for some reason. Had to use Hdunlock.exe and hdlock.exe as xboxhdm 1.9 cannot find the eeprom that is on the E:folder on the CDr the is really annoying.
THINK ITS PRICKED, STILL LYING AROUND TILL I GET THE URGE TO RIP IT AGAIN ANS SPARE PC BACK
