[Gabywan]

Hi Friends! ;D

this is a vice. You finish one and want to begin the a new one and to improve it.
I want improve my previous chassis. This is the crystal chamber, I must still improve her  and to give him more details..

some advices are always welcome.. :D











Gaby!

[Luke S.]

Wow Gaby that looks awesome.  I told you months ago this would become an addiction.  ;)

I really like the blue rings you have going there.  They look really cool.  I may have to do a little mod to mine and add some.

[Master Dai Bendu]

My advice to you is: Keep doing what you're doing!!

Looks great Gaby. When I start building my own, you will get a PM for advice  ;D

[Jasher Kain]

I agree. Those blue rings look great!

[LUMINARA UNDULI]

Looking good Gabywan!  I am glad to see that you have become addicted!  The more the merrier ;D

Where did you get those blue acrylic disks and what exactly are they called?

Also how did you sculp them so nicely that they are clear and glossy on the sides?

[Gabywan]

Hi friend ;D


wow, I am very happy to see that you continue my projects!! for me it is very encouraging.
The idea of the blue rings went out of thinking that in the visual encyclopedia the drawing is a cut of the crystal chamber and so the power gate is cut too, then I said ' an option would be that this one was continuing ' ... I not if it will be like that but I like the idea..

I think we both posted at the same time.

Hi luke! ;D

The material of the rings is an acrylic blue transparent color, it is important that it is transparent and not dark blue so that when the crystal is illuminated they sparkle his blue color.
I have cut them with laser in a store, it was expensive, but to cut these rings with the hand it is very difficult.

hahaha...yes is true :D

[Luke S.]

Ahhh now we know your trade secret.  ;D

Either way they look super cool.

hahahaha.... you have discovered me ;D
not everything is with laser ... it goes out very expensive especially when they are few pieces, generally if one does a production of many pieces the cost low.
The majority of the parts realized them with my hands ... I have cut myself several times with the cutter... :-\

Next time you have some cut think about doing a run of them.  I bet you could sell a few here to those making their own graflex.  Even if you sell them at low prices it would still reduce your cost.  I would buy a couple from you.  ;)

[Master Dai Bendu]

I would buy at least two. Maybe a few extra  ;D

it is a good idea to be able to recover little money, the problem is that I might sell the chassis without the blade holder, it is a problem, because add the blade holder I have to buy them in USA they send it to me and then I must add at the cost of my chassis the cost of the blade holder more the mailing from usa ... although perhaps I could working an exact blade holder for the graflex ... I dont know, it would be necessary to think how to lower the cost...
