Brass Bambino

[asdaq]

Small but packs a punch.

Brass with bamboo but smaller, this time a 14500 AW IMR and a ptn04050CAS with 100µf 25v caps tucked behind the board. Two 5/8" holes and much better symmetry in the body. Rounder too. The genisis protrudes a fair amount more and has a tank with only 2.1ml as opposed to 3ml in it's larger counterpart.

I ran out of thinner plate for the bottom so it has a solid thicker plate as opposed to the 2 as before. The lean is more so the angled top is more to match.

With the electronics I am quite impressed to be getting between two different batteries down to 2.7v and 2.8v before it shuts down, consuming nearly the whole tank on a single charge. My Brass Booster is done at ~3.2v.

Also curious is the balance. When the tank is full it tends to lean to the atty side, and when close to empty on the battery side. Thanks for looking!

Very very cool! I wish I knew how to woodwork.

Thanks much! Actually there is very little woodwork here, just drilling and removing material and sanding. If this were a box or had some sort of assembly requirement, I would make a real mess of it. It is just a double barreled tube in the end.

Beautiful mate to it's big brother.

Those look great Asdaq. Very clean looking.

Excellent workmanship as usual asdaq...the grain in that wood looks really cool. Cant you stick bamboo in a jar coloring and let it soak up in to the wood like a celery stalk in water/food coloring...that would be wild too.

What I really want to know is where did you find a 3 point wrench for those bottom nuts?

 

[lynch]

Very nice mods Asdak. Which one are you sending me ?

 

[asdaq]

Oh hey like a celery stalk, could do it in blue, lol..

Harbor freight 40 piece security tip set. They have almost everything! Really though it was a pain to get the holes in that bottom plate right.

No shi....I was joking...I thought you made those triangle nuts yourself!

Yeah blue would be cool!

 

[asdaq]

So was I.

They do have something like that, but I think its mostly screwdriver tips; triangles, stars, and snowflake patterns. Those nuts needed to be somewhat smaller and with more of a bevel on the edge.

Somehow, it's extremely hard for me to believe that...

Yeah, and Venus de Milo is just a statue...

Awww man....that does it...your on my "LIST" now!!

wait....now where did I put that list anyway.......

 

[asdaq]

Pinky it is true.

A couple of years ago I went to build a bookshelf planning to use glue and wooden pegs as fasteners. Pretty soon there were extra wooden pegs needed as some holes were off and to pass 'household code' I had to go back and add a bunch of screws, which I really wanted to avoid in the first place.

From woodshop all I really got was the sanding practice

 

[P1NkY]

LOL! Well, you're one helluva sander, dude!
