240 grit sanding disc and scotch bright disc. I twisted each blade with pliers, then sanded and polished.
.
This is looking amazing CNCman!
Thanks everyone 
Alright, it is time to put it together from tail to Led, less reflector. 
Mount and glue the side switch.
Connecting the driver ground wire. Also shortened or trimmed the switch wires and fan driver.
Side switch mounted and finished.
Lights on with fan running after turning on at the tail cap.
Finished with the hard part, now the reflector and lens are next to get mounted.

OK we finished today. Sorry it took to the end time, but it has been an extremely busy 3 months as I’m sure everyone has their challenges this past year. I have enjoyed the build and watching everyone’s entry into this yrs Challenge. It has truly been a challenge to complete the build.
.
So we begin mounting the reflector and making the bezel with a special lens. 
.
It took several heating and trimming attempts to get this finished, removing cracks was tricky.
Alignment was very challenging.
Drilling, tapping, screwing it all together.
Preparing the Bezel for epoxy.
The special green lens from a scrap projection TV.
Bezel finished drying.
Ready for final assembly.
You can see some of the imperfections in roundness that made this part very challenging to finish.
.
Beam Shots.
.
It has been fun building this Skeleton Light for internal hardware visibility.
Hope you enjoyed it. Good Luck to everyone in the Challenge
Remember, its not about winning, just have fun with your friends here at BLF.
.
Thanks goes to you Old Lumens and everyone here at BLF.
.
! Great concept and execution!
Wow good stuff. You smoothed out all the edges of your blades right? That musta taken a while to do. I really like the unique clear enclosure you made which allows the internals to be on full display. Means you can’t get away with using those terrible EBL batteries
Really cool build—adding the green lens was a real surprise at the end, totally didn’t see that coming but i like how you repurposed the TV optics.
It looks like you spotted a man following a woman carrying a baby out in the woods…?
Bonus points for the wooden stand you made, that was a clever idea.
.
I was afraid to use 30Q’s because the driver may not survive them.
Yep, that is a point deduction, my bad for not ordering something special.
Only had those ssshhh ebl’s for lower amp use. I had purchased them before knowing not too yrs ago. :person_facepalming:
.
:o Incredible building!!
Great work!
Fantastic work mate, then again I expected nothing less from you! 
it was always going to be a masterpiece!
maybe because of the green and it’s size you could name it…… HULK - The inner beast will be released even fits the description!
That is one “ cool “ light !
Amazing work, CNCman! Really cool getting to see the inards.
Thanks everyone for the nice comments. 
You guys make it fun here at BLF. 
It has been a tough to get time to finish with all our family things going on thru the holidays.
The light is finished but time ran out to add some extra lenses with beam shots, so I will do that later in a separate thread.
Never thought about naming it the …Hulk… ‘G0OSE’, LOL, good one.
.
It has been a nice surprise to see more members join the contest.
I hope next time more will enter and not be afraid or feel unable to build something, we are all here to help each other.
Every entry is important and welcome in many ways, so jump in there and join the fun !
.
I finished the Skeleton flashlight BUT, there were some things I was going to add, but ran out of time. I should have been more attentive.
.
This addition is AFTER the competition ended and did not get judged.
.
After the contest ended and further inspection and testing, it was noticed the new xhp70.2 was defective, only operating with 2 of 4 diodes.
So I replaced it with a new one and tested with Samsung 30Q batteries.
.
The light was more than twice as bright after fixing it.
.
Just for the record, here is what was planned.
.
.
258,735cd
7200lm
1,017m throw
6v @ 11.2 amps
Transparent body
Active cooled
clear flat AR coated lens
Green lens
Red lens
Aspheric lens

Clear AR coated flat lens
.
Green lens was less noticeable on high.
.
Red lens, not very useful.
.
The Aspheric lens was so horrible it was not taken.
Looks impressive on the light, that is all, LOL. 
.
That is awesome! A man after my own heart! Great job and I love your creativity and innovation. No machine tools either!
My favorite element of this light is the turbine heatsink combined with the clear body (so you can see it). How does it handle the heat in use on a turbo run?
.
It seemed to do real good.
The heat can be felt coming out the exhaust holes, the fan could be stronger, maybe I will bump it up to 6v.
I will do a heat test today and post some numbers for you.
.

.
After this test, it was noticed the Turbo Timer was pre-set at 120 seconds from Mtn Electronics.
This driver was initially purchased for a small light. 
So I threw together some available parts and ordered a bigger reflector and lens for this project and did not remember the specs on the driver. There was time to order another one too. 
.
At turn on + 30 sec. 10 amps, 7112 lumens, 22c at the led base.
.
After 2 minutes 9.67 amps, 5600 lumens, 30c, the thermal step down started after 2 minutes and continued until it was off completely.
.
In conclusion, the temp had stabilized prior to the 120 seconds Turbo Timer cutoff. 
It runs cooler and does not cut off at lower setting.
I wish a longer Turbo test was possible. 
.
Very nice! Great performance for that
