You are completely out of this world with this build CRX, and the fastest modder out there. That build took you half a day??
Great zoomie, man!

Thanks very much mate, seven hours. Still not tested properly yet as the JB is still drying
You never cease to amaze me… Fantastic work!

Thanks mate, and thank you for the idea - I might never have made this light otherwise :+1:
The king of brass strikes once again! Seriously good looking build. What keeps the lens slide in place? Is there an o-ring tucked in there for friction like the SK-68 has?

I love carbon fibre stuff, it’s actually way more affordable than I originally though.
CRX, you are like a magician! You think of it and “poof”, there it is. Excellent work.

Thanks, it is very thin copper that works as the slide stop, you can see the detail in the picture with the red line marking on the brass tube.

It has become a lot cheaper over the years, I bought a 500mm x 14mm tube for £8, the cars are still a bit pricey though

If only that were true

Great build. It would be popular w/ the ladies as a “lipstick light”.

Then it will need a deep red led (650nm).
