Nice :thumbup: could have used one of those on my 6P awhile back, as I dropped it on the roof of a charger.

It bent the rim up a little, but did nothing to the lens.:thumbup:

Looking better J, I just wish you would do threading so you have a flush look.

 

[Jeremy Horton]

Its a step up instead of a step down, just as flush looking as what's underneath,, and homie I'm the Machine artist'. You know what 4140 heat treated threads would do to aluminum threads,, destroy them, and Ti would. Gauld together. ,, man,, the ones I'm planning for the 6p will be straight, like the bezel,. Recessed slip fit, and nasty fied. Thanks for the comments guys,, I'm on it,, flashlight door shredders are my new guilty pleasure,,

Just giving you my honest opinion.

 

[Jeremy Horton]

I understang. And value ur opinion.

 

[Jeremy Horton]

just letting u know the problems with ur plan

 

[richstag]

Cool, obvisously I value yours or I would not have asked you for so much help when I was looking into tools and belts and all that junk. Later man, gotta do work.

 

[richstag]

just letting u know the problems with ur plan

What is the problem with your plan?

 

[Jeremy Horton]

The problem with my plan, is that I don't want to use set screws for a fast on and off ,, its very hard to spin. But it will spin, but being so aggressive. I don't think it will matter,, and finding the time,,is my other problem. Lol

 

[richstag]

Right, well I would not put anything extra on the end of my flashlight so i have not put much thought into it. I just know if I was to put something on the end I would want it to be flush and threaded. You will figure it out machine artist man

 

[Jeremy Horton]

I want to use a step recess and precision bored slip fit for fitting7, I think it will be hella strong and could be taken off and dissapear fast,, if needed,, you feel me..

 

[Jeremy Horton]

The stuff I make is Definitely not for everyone, but, luckily this community goes deeper than lights and blades.
