I'd just like to point out that symmetry has been maintained...

What sort of hat might one put on a Ti (if one had a Ti of one's very own) and one had a matchy-matchy compulsion?

Ohman Pancake? It's Ti after all.

Good call, Nate. I've heard good things about the Pancake.

I really think you need to add a titanium for yourself....you know....maintaining symmetry and all

I'd like to, my brother. I really would. You know I only keep the ones that have a slight "issue"...

'member,...my 6061 has a slightly oversized battery hole, and my 7075 has the chamfer around the top of the body, and under the cap, making the seem extremely visible...

I'm good with factory seconds, though.

I'll just hafta be patient and maybe sooner or later tragedy will strike while finishing out an SS and/or Ti.....

Gonna go knock on a pile o' wood now....

I wonder who was touting the wonders of said pancake

 

[phanner]

Have to go back to the Kanger Poobox for a week. What am I going to do?!

Aside - not that I need to tell all of you this, but the difference on a fresh battery, same building, between the two mods, is ASTOUNDING

 

[custom-classic]

Dang, brother.... I'm so sorry it has come to this....

Hang in 'ere, man. Try an' be brave.... I'll try to hurry?...

 

[phanner]

Haha will do! It's going to be really tough, like actually.

I just told this story to Corey (I'm a poet and I didn't even know it!) in PM, but I have to share it here.

So I'm packing up my CC and off in the distance I hear something. Now, I live in a city, but it's not very large, which made this all the more hysterical. As I am lamenting having to send her back, and taping up the box, a lone trumpet player was playing taps.

I swear to God :lol

Also, recycle your packaging people!

Some of you will recognize this

Ingenious, really.

EDIT: my ending rant was supposed to highlight the beeman's work, but I think it came off as self righteous instead

Anyway, go Peter!

Since I posted that, 2 minutes ago, I have tried to take a toot of my mod thrice, each time putting a thumb (once) and pointer finger (twice) on the top of the Poobox

Been there. Not with a poobox, but been there.

All good, my brother. I like to keep things simple.

My CC had become my tobacco mod since I got her and now I got no 'baccy vapes

I'm going to have to run a mech mod tomorrow

Most folks'll tell ya to get two stand alone machines, if you want to mill, and turn..... I tend to agree with that, especially if you'll be using the machines a lot, and crankin' out lots o' parts. However, you can do a lot of really cool stuff with that setup.

That is a pretty large machine, though. It's actually bigger than my new lathe. That, and the fact that it's 500 pounds.....You just wanna make sure you have the room for it, and a really solid base to set it on.

I've got a 15' X 30' shop in the back with a garage door on the front, room and a solid base are not a problem

Im certainly not looking to go into mass production and would definately be open to less expensive options (if I were to fall down this here rabbit hole).

I thought of mill/turn caps or drip tips made out of ultem or delrin. So I think a smaller lathe is able to do the job as well?

 

[custom-classic]

Indeed.

I think a good micro lathe could do Ultem/Delrin tips and caps just fine.

I have a much easier time turning small items on a small lathe than I do my large lathe. I have not turned ultem or delrin, though.
