It'll be okay, Ross...
Just think o' how much lighter and more conductive the 7075'll be...
And shinier???.....

Most of today was consumed by administrative duties,.... things more secretarial in nature...
Plus a few odd jobs around the house that needed tended to...

But tonight,....tonight???



Tonight is,.......






wait for it,.............








Small parts night!!!

Just me???



I'm easily excited....


Might not look like much,...but that represents a good chunk of the evening.


Now it's on to the 510's.....


Wish me luck!!!

So what was the verdict on 7068? Almost as strong as titanium......well almost.....

 

[custom-classic]

I'm hung out there pretty far, financially,... with 6061, 7075, and now brass. The onesie, twosie stuff is behind us.... (us, as in me and Robert, my machinist buddy)... I do have pricing from him for 7068. It is considerably higher than 7075, and that's with me supplying the material,...which, of course, is also considerably higher....

I've not ruled it out, but the MOQ (minimum order quantity) would be 25 units... That's a lot o' cash for me..... I'm spread a little thin, at the moment..... I really need to concentrate on filling the orders I have, in the materials I'm having them made from,... for a while, before I make that kind of commitment to other materials...

I'm just not sure that many people would wanna pay what I'd have to charge to do 7068, and make it worth doing... IDK...

First world problems, and all....

Thanks for that, buddy!

You are absolutely correct! I'm still hopin' I can make you another mod,....at some point...

Something that works a little better for you.

maybe 26650?

 

[custom-classic]

It's lookin' more, and more likely that I'm gonna need to build, at least a few 26650 mods, at some point in the future. I will put you down for one, if you like.

Thanks, buddy!

The CC I bought from element77 arrives today!! I will be able to get some pichers, but I won't have much time to play with it as I'm going to Philly for the Eagles game tonight(GO BIRDS!).

I kinda feel like I'm missing out by not getting to see my progress pics
Maybe I'll go back and find element's pics and do it vicariously!

In the meantime, I think I just came up with a name for my CC already...never named a mod before, but this just feels right. I'm thinking of calling it C4....Classy Classifieds Custom Classic....yes? I think yes!

 

[element77]

Slap an Atty on it, fill it with liquid, and take it to the game!
Monday night football and CC, epic night

I just might do that, actually! I could slap a Thump on it, or steal a Vector off of one of my Grands!

Smoover now.... eh, Bob...

What a day, uh? I think I'll take that break now, KK.

Time to go see what Russ is talkin' 'bout...

Thanks, Russ. Great lookin' atty, either way. I'm glad you were able to score a couple.

Tell your hot wife, we said thanks for letting you make the video the other night!





Nah,.... I decided to take the day off......






Yeah, right!!!



Funny you should mention the white delrin button, though....

Came out perfect!!!



Hey, B! Thanks, buddy!

Right now the wait time is officially into July...

I am currently looking at ways to shrink that wait time a bit, though.... Just let me know if you want a spot on the list.

Sorry I've been scarce today. Been goin' nonstop since about 6am... Pm returned, Bob.

And, Bill,...I will be with you shortly....



The good news is,...this just happened......

Proper photo shoot to follow......
