Titanium build

Nice! Must be very fulfilling to do.

If you didn’t tell anyone, I wouldn’t think it was your first try at titanium. Nice work!

Very original design, quality components, nice choice of materials, I really like it ! It definitely screams for trit slots in my opinion.

Excellent job !

:+1:

Nice work pp. The curves look real neat along with the copper pill band adding a bit of colour. What thread pitch do you use? :beer:

Very nice!

Amazing work. Looks great! :+1:

Very Nice build :beer:

I curious about something, do you draw this up on CAD, paper, Napkin at dinner, just in your head, or on the fly ?

Love to see your Creations :beer:

“Hourglass”

Nice work!

Heck of a job on your first titanium chipping. The finish looks pretty good. Its even got a lighted tail cap. :+1:
Just food for thought, the Sunwayman V11R and the V10R will both except a lighted tail cap without having to add a bleed resistor.

Wow, lotsa comments. Thanks guy’s :sunglasses:

After the hunting light I went back to 1mm threads on this one.

I started in my head but eventually had to chicken scratch something just so I could remember the dimensions I was working to

Yes, you’re right… :wink:

Very nice pinkpanda3310! Lathing a flashlight out of metal, let alone titanium, is something I could only dream of. Looks like it should be in Star Wars.

Watcha think your gonna come in here with a home made light like this and think no one would notice? :person_facepalming: :slight_smile:

I can’t see your second pic in post #13 pinkpanda3310. :cry:

I believe this is the title around here!

Nice build by the way.

I reckon there are lots of lurkers but I only so many commenters.

That’s odd :question: Lets try a different host

:zipper_mouth_face: Oops, my bad…… :laughing: :laughing: :smiley: Cheers :beer:

Here is the link for a free 2D cad I use if you are interested. It is easy to learn and use. :beer:

Maybe pp is frugal by not having a wife? :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s a beauty!

Thanks CNCman, i’ll keep this in mind. I have a dream of doing a cnc conversion on the lathe one day but I have a hard time justifying it. I just get the feeling that it would not be a huge benefit to me because I do not make repeat parts (nearly always one off’s) and the dwg’s (I’m not familiar with cad/cam etc…) and set up for each part might take just as long as manually machining it from the start. Regardless of all that, the link you provided does look appealing :beer:

Thanks cabfrank :beer:
