Obi EP1 run progress thread.
« on: July 24, 2011, 07:16:02 PM »
First batch of material.


Second batch (from a different supplier).


Electronic parts and assorted supplies.


Just to give a quick scope, there is over $3000.00 worth of parts sitting on the table not counting the metal supplies.  Remember, 10 watt LEDengin LEDs cost 30 bucks each ;).

I am still waiting to get my shipment of Li-ion cells from AW (coming from Hong Kong so shipping is taking a little longer).  I also need to order the blade material once I get a count of total blade quantity.  About all that is left after this is the CF boards from Erv.

Pommel caps and necks - lathe work finished.
Small neck section - finished.


See, I can fit a CFV5 inside the pommel neck.

WOW
you guys are certainly to be commended
I think we all tend to ommit the enormous outlay Smiths go to produce a run like this
fairplay to you WT
it's all Elemental
