made to order custom p60 dropins (bushedfactory is on HOLD, see top of post)

I use the sanding drums on my dremel 4000. Lately I’ve tried with the cutoff discs. Just to chew off the lip of the penny. It works pretty good.

Until I got my dremel drill press (it works ok, not for drilling metal though) I had pennies flying all over the place. Those drums chew copper up, sometimes a little too aggressive.

This is one I’m working on right now. It almost fits. When it’s at this stage I use 600 grit paper until it just fits then I polish the edge until it slides to the bottom, force it out, then adhesive it in place.

If I’m going to change emitters in a pill for the future I’d solder the heatsink in.

Really, go Canadian. 1996 and older are 98% Copper, older U.S. are 94%.

I have around 200 1996 and earlier Canadian pennies and 50 or so American pre 1982. That America one is 1964 and was thick so I used it. I usually leave the driver side of the penny face intact, it’s usually a maple leaf, this time it’s Lincoln or whoever that guy is.

…and hey guys, yeah i finally got these two and they are both top notch and really kicking ass!
I can only say: Get them while they last! :slight_smile:
Greetings from Germany and very kind regards to bushwhacked, really damn good work!

Hi Jeremy, i’m really so deeply satisfied with the dropins you made for me, i would like to shout this out to the whole community! :slight_smile:
Oh damn’d, how could i convince the P60-loving-people to get a dropin hand-crafted by you? :~

Hey gals and guys, the dropins i received from Jeremy are really top notch - really! They are heat-managed the best, i could think of and are cranking out a full sh*tload of f*cking awesome blinding bright light, it is really delightful! :party:

You’ll love it!

PS: Sorry Jeremy, for being so enthusiastic, cause i just impressed some fellow flashie-guys with the dropins, you made for me. I think, they’ll contact you for getting their own precious jewels made for them by you. :wink:

Thanks Uli. The ones I’ve made for you are better than any I have made for myself.

I’m glad they impressed some others, they are some very nice dropins. That nichia is especially nice, I’m surprised how cool yet not cool the tint is. Creamy white with no blue is very nice.

Hope you have fun with them and thanks for the words of encouragement and the bump to the post.

bushwhacked Aka Jeremy

Hi again,

i’m sorry to sound like a fanboy, but sorry, i am a fanboy of his productions and you would be too, if you would have a chance to get a dropin like i already have from bushwhacked. The ones, he made for me, you would die for - really - i would bet on that!! :wink:

…long story short: Contact bushwhacked and get your own dropins, you won’t regret it - promised!

Oh lol. :smiley:

Mid summer bump with the op edited.

Do you build any triples or quads? Looking for a nice mule drop in but if not a single LED might work for me

I would like a UV drop in.
I have a 502b to send you.

I’ll need more details and have to order parts. Pm sent.

The latest build.

This is an xml2 U2 1A running 3.5 amps on high and 1.7 on low from a nanjg with 10x 350 7135 chips. It has been fully potted with a copper heatsink, the reflector polished and groove filled with a brass band.

The owner doesn’t have it yet so I can’t say if it’s a winner yet but I’m sure he’ll be happy.

Thanks for looking.

Bushwhacked

Sent you a PM with questions. Thanks.

Sent you a pm with more questions.

Received my custom P60 dropin from bushwacked and I have to say his work is great and he delivers what he promises. I will be ordering more in the future. Get one from him if you need one and you will not be disappointed. His service was fast and so was his shipping. Thanks Jeremy for great work :slight_smile:

It’s my pleasure to make these. Thanks for the kind words Yogi. I hope you enjoy it.
