My new toy...26650 parallel box mod

[Stringplucker]

I know a guy, a Master Cabinet Maker and Luthier, in Ohio. I talked with him last week about making a 26650 parallel box mod with mosfet and heatsink. He came up with this over the course of a few days. Bocote and Bloodwood, and absolutely beautiful.

It's due to be delivered to me on Monday. Enjoy the view...







Those aren't waves in the finish...it's reflection.





More reflection...

Wow!
That's slick! I like it alot.

Those are just cell phone pictures. When it gets here, I'm going to take pictures with better lighting and a better lens to try to capture the amount of gloss it has. He applied at least 6 coats of lacquer to bring depth to the grain. He sent me a video, from his cell phone, so show me how glossy it is. He had second thoughts about sending it to me, but he decided the one he makes for himself would be of different wood.

According to tracking info, it should be delivered tomorrow. I'll give it the once over, and if it's as good as I think it is, I'll pass on his contact info to you. I'll have to get his okay on it first, of course.
