Just started on a new box. Will up date with pics as I progress. Don't have
a cnc so all my router and dremel work will be free hand. Wish me luck!

Ya, makes me wish I'd done a better job on it. It turned out a lot bigger than I had hoped.
But, I have enough wood to build 2 more and pieces of a third I have some high figure walnut
I want to mix with it. Also the pre built battery holders take up a lot of room, so those have to go
on the next one. And may go with a high amp switch and get rid of the transistor.

Hits like a train though, dual 7 wrap parallel 26g .31ohm ramp time cold is about .5 sec and if
its warm its instant. Using 35amp LGs

I only have my tablet. So I don't know if I can post them any bigger.
It looks really clean, but other than the wood grain, kinda plain, just a
square box with rounded edges spring loaded 510 not much else going on.
Used 14g solid copper to connect the battery holders and 16g stranded
for the rest. Used high grade silver solder for all the connections,
so I only have .02 ohms from battery to 510, haven't checked voltage
drop, but I'm guessing .1 or lower, just judging from the way it hits.
Would like to do some dove tail work but I'll have to find the inserts
for my router table.

poland, and the brassy lands of google
Ahh yes, lovely Apple. They do an auto backup to iCloud, but it isn't good for viewing online or sharing like here. The good news is Google Photos will run just fine on it and have all that sharing goodness. Size aside, you have a real nice tri-part compisition with the spalting in the middle there. If ever a mod deserved bigger pics.

Started a new box just waiting on 510 and switch to get here.
Got a .14 build in this box cloud city. ( Use caution, I am using 35amp
LGs in parallel so amps double and at .1omhs 4.2volts = around 42amps
but the load is shared) If you are running a single 18650 at 35 amps I recommend
.25 or higher. And again at your own risk.
New box will be dual 18650 with mosfet, spalted Tamerind and walnut.
