Just filled the last slot for November...



Random Sunday night pics....

Thanks for the support, folks!!!

I really appreciate it!!!

Sunday morning shots, Sunday night shots, the man never stops!!!!!

It looks like the 7075 is a viable option. Due to a little higher material cost, and more time to machine,... the price will have to be $450. I don't anticipate there being 2 of these in very many pairs, so I'll make it a point to put in the extra hours to keep the 2 per week thing going.

I've got plenty of 6061 and 7075 to make either/or. In all honesty, 6061 is plenty bulletproof for these mods.... but I know some folks like the idea of the harder material, and I aim to please...

I'll be sure to ask before I start an aluminum mod, 6061 or 7075???

In other words,.... it's all good, Rudy!!!

Great to hear. I wasn't sure if it took a toll on your equipment.
Pace yourself buddy, don't kill yourself!! Us that ordered our mods of distinction aren't going anywhere. Better to be slow, steady, healthy, maintain balance of personal & family time.

@custom-classic Do you vape a lot while making these mods?

Constantly!!!

Which is lighter Corey?

 

[custom-classic]

7075 is more dense, so I suspect it's slightly heavier. Can't be much though... I would say, almost imperceivable...

I will compare when I get home...

6061 has a density of 2.70 g/ml

7075 has a density of 2.81 g/ml

Thanks, Verb!

So, vaping a 7075 CC mod can give you bigger biceps

No, but maybe 12 oz. curls??

Get a BB and you will really have big biceps.

I like the way you think Rudy.

 

[custom-classic]

Someone should measure Rossum's biceps, to be sure???

 

[Nautilusfan]

I knew the 7075 was going to be a little heavier than 6061. But not a lot. Maybe CC could pull out some scales and get an accurate weight on the 2 mods

 

[MotherNatural]

Can we get a weight on the brass too please?

 

[custom-classic]

Yes, I will compare tonight and post weights.

I was thinking of sending my bb to Dready but it looks soooooo pretty when I polish it that I can't bring myself to do it.

I saw somewhere the other day about using a specific polishing cloth that worked well. Can someone help me out with this?

Could be a Cape Cod Cloth. I used to use those for polishing watches.

I just ordered some Simichrome to play with. I know Rossum's a big fan of the stuff. We shall see....
