BTW, how is it machining that silver? 
You didn't have to go all the way back to find that post, Ross.
This one, and two more just like it, are gonna be yours.
You had OG dibs. 
That one took a really long time to make. Too long....
I've got some cool tools comin' that'll speed up the process, so we can make these easier and faster to make.
Once I get 'em in, I'll be able to see how long these are really gonna take to make, that way I can put a good price on 'em. The tools will be here day after tomorrow.

Indeed! Just a few thousandths, so it should be be easy to use your sandpaper on a flat surface technique.
That brings up a concern I have though... Over the course of this thing, there have been changes to the way I do things. The negative contact, button flanges, and even the positive contact have been different thicknesses, I've pretty well standardized things these days,...but up until now, I've always had the mod in hand, so I could make any necessary adjustments...

I have 11 other mods floating around the house in strategic places, and as soon as one empties, it's getting replaced
In the meantime, it's sitting up front, where I can admire it.
