18490 progress

[Strauss95]

My 18490 came in today and I'm absolutely BLOWN AWAY!! This unit is beautiful and such a perfect size. Pictures just do not do these fine pieces of work justice. This is my first wood Reo and I can tell you right now this will NOT be my last. Here are a couple pics of my new pride and joy....

BTW mine is a cocobolo body with ebony door....and it's my new baby

Thanks everyone, I'm in love!!!

You should be; it's gorgeous. It's a great combination. Both of the woods really helps to offset the grain pattern and detail of the other.

Just received mine. Thanks Rob! merry christmas everybody!

Merry Christmas to you too and congrats on receiving your 18490!

It's Here, it's here!!! My new 18490 Woodvil Bloodwood Zircote 1 is here!! If I knew how to post a picture, I would. But now, I must go Christmas shopping and let my 18490 batteries fully charge to start at top shape. View attachment 69759 Oh, I may have attached a picture but I'm not sure.

I am so thrilled with this mod, and I realize that I could still choose one from the ones left even today and be extremely happy with it. However, if I had waited until today to order, there might not have been any left AND it wouldn't be here today. Happy, happy...

You should be thrilled. It's a beautiful REO you got in your hands right now. Congrats!!

The little lady just went down to pick mine up at the PO. I called and had them hold it so I won't have to wait until the Mailman delivered it this afternoon. Got batteries charged and juice bottles filled. Wish me luck, I'm going in deep

rock it hard beez

 

[beezer]

Got it and I am Mike

I need to retrain my squonking finger for these smaller bottles.

 

[bitey]

What a gorgeous one. I really love that door.

Thanks! I had already decided that I would try to get something with bloodwood or purpleheart as part of it if I didn't get a stabilized one and once I saw that door, it was one of my favorites. I love this door even more as I sit here and look at it. I really liked all of the mods with this type of zircote door, I was taken the most with this one. What a wonderfully creative use of a beautiful wood this is on all of the zircote doors.

 

[beezer]

If anyone wants to sell me a stabilized one they don't want let me know

I need to retrain my squonking finger for these smaller bottles.

Mike, I have the same situation, particularly when the bottle of juice is running low, and I need to squonk it pretty deep to get any. I have always had fairly small hands, and the size of the hole is fine for me when the bottle is full and just needs a little pressure on it.

I can't imagine on a long drive getting away with pulling over in an area marked "Emergency Stopping Only" because I needed to fill up with more ejuice so my squonking finger wouldn't get sore. I think that conversation would start with, "Well, you see, officier, . . ."
