Just another Copper Smoothie scratch build It's Done, with beam shots

Without me saying, you know I’m lost already. Looks interesting.

Justin. Don’t you wish the flashlight industry and the plumbing industry would come to an agreement and synchronize the sizing of their parts?

Steve, the recipe call for 3 shots of tequila and 4 lime cubes not 3 cups of tequila and 4 beers. Heaven help us, you’re not following, you’re leading the way. Looking forward to another copper classic. Nice bezel!

Yep, but the bad part would be the inconsistent and bogus lumens ratings on all copper pipe and fittings!

Freezing your old butt off yet Old?

That looks really sweet, smooth as a whistle, gonna be a nice light for sure.

I vote for the 18350 for whatever that’s worth. A nice little pocket light with a recessed momentary. Yeah, that’s the ticket! :wink:

Class is in session H) Looking forward to the learning experience. Subscribed

As always… I can’t wait to see the finished product.
But whatever it is, I’m pretty sure it’s going to be an amazing stuff coming from Old-lumens factory :smiley:

Look up Brownell’s online, get yourself a checkering file, cut handmade knurling in the copper body. :slight_smile:

Tell you what, I will send it over for you to checker/knurl after I get finished with it.

Actually, I already tried that once. It didn't come out well at all. It's much nicer doing checkering on wood. I don't think I still have all the checkering tools. I believe I gave them to someone else.

It’s cold enough. Still better than August heat.

As with all your threads… subscribed. :bigsmile:

I wonder if a sleeve could be utilized, slip a carbon fiber tube over the smooth body…

Just wondering, that’s all! No thanks on the checkering, last time I tried that my Glock 23 went full auto! EEK!

While the master works the apprentices watch.

I wish that l was smart enough to be an apprentice to the master and his apprentice. I love both of your works.
Your light is coming along amazingly creatively OL.

Other way around is more like it. Those fins you do are the best thing since sliced bread.

Love how you think up the solutions to the standard problems. All comes together so easily…well for us it appears to anyway! Well done, this should really be a nice looking light. Maybe you should collaborate with Scott and get it some custom made copper cooling fins? Jam for the sliced bread…

+1 - loving this so far...

I, as always, stand amazed at what you can do!! Surprised

Anxious to see the finished light!!
