Got wood?

[disturbed1]

Hello all in Reovill....I am about to be the proud owner of a woodvil shortly. How ever its going to be 100% disassembled (which I have no problem with). I am wondering if you all could get me some up close pics of the insides so I can get this little beauty put together as right as I can get it. I have never seen a woodvil up close and personal. So the more detailed the picks the better.


Before you think I'm trying to clone a woodvil let me say I'm not. This is coming right from Rob. I had contacted him with some questions and for hahas I asked him if he had and blem woodvil bodies that he would like to get rid of as I would love to build my vary own woodvil. I was in luck he had one and it turned out not to be a blem. I would just like to get it as close to a Rob dun woodvil as I can .

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the pics. Is there a + wire under the bottle on the other side of the switch and where does the + wire of the + contact tuck in I don't see it.

Why did I not ever think to do that Great find, can't wait to see pics of the body and hear about the build

Unsure, you've got such great toys

No not under the bottle. Just the button/switch and the bottom of the 510 connector.

Theres no other wire coming off the switch on the bottom?

Thanks for the pick.

What Im see here is - spring to switch, spring get a wire that runs up the side to the 510. What I cant see is if there is another wire on the other side of the on/off switch and how the + contact is run to the fire butene. It looks like one side of the fire butene is soldered straight to the 510.

There aren't any good detailed pics on the net

Congrats. The wire from the positive battery contact goes to the switch and then the center pin.

That will be one to treasure when you are done with it.

Thanks for the nice shot! This is what Im seeing. Correct me if im wrong.




But I still cant see if theres a second wire on the bottom on/off switch and how its ran if there is one.

Close, the bottom spring is soldered to one side of the switch and the wire runs from the other side of the switch

I have soldered across those contacts on the bottom switch on one of my Woodvilles, so I've electronically removed the switch. This lowers the voltage drop but removes ability to lock-out the fire button.

Okay so its wire on the left spring on the right.


Is it like 18g non braided wire through out the mod that im seeing?

correct

There is a channel cut into the wood along the right side of the battery that holds the wire that runs from the center terminal of the on/off switch to the negative side of the 510 connector

This is going to be so much fun.....is there anything else I should grab while I'm at it?

So you no longer have an on/off switch?
