Are those threads square or trapezoid? How did you cut them?
Is that a phone picture?
yes square thread pp ground my own tool slow and steady
next bit is a little boring
ended up with this
spun it around just want to shape the head a little,not sure how yet,
next week,.
and yes mrs dnf all pics are from the s5 as it is easy to upload with the app,

Do you have a mill?
I have this Chinese mill drill
The threads look real good LTP.
I was happy enough for my first attempt
V threads are better.
Realized I needed a bezel
skimmed bit of flat
turned it to suit
trimmed the back of the head a little
its a sizable thing
now to get time to finish and source some orings
Nice re-purpose of a cylinder shaft LTP. :+1:
Its coming along nicely LTP. Not hard to tell your new camera pictures. :+1:
Sorry to dissapoint. But i just wiped the crud off the phone lens
Its finally done.

Very nice build! That will take some time to warm up, even with a 70.2. Is the led on a 20mm board? Any idea what current it draws?
The beam looks impressive!
20mm board from kd. no idea of current I was hoping 7 or 8 amps,
I don’t think heat should be a problem,
Nice
Nice :+1:
Must be a good light for camping. Solid chunk of ali with good battery life. Nice.
That looks amazing.
ok charged the batts 11.3 amps when fresh,so should be good for roughly 7000 lumens may try some heavier wires to the led and see if I gain any thing
