    Printed DNA30 Bottom Feeder

    Here is my first go at using the new hollow center pin. I used the indoor lathe (drill and Dremel) to grind down a 14g hypo needle so it just slips through the pin. I wanted some sticking out the top (but probably not that much, I will probably trim it), then I was thinking I would drill out...

    Get some SS flux and stainless is actually not bad at all to solder. But your going to want to clean real good after word, because I don't think it's something you want in your juice :D

    Yeah I have a couple of SX350's that needed to be built up. But probably the last ones I'll build.

    The flat and angled lid are the same height, so yes the flat lid will work also.
