Getting used to the new lathe. Hoping to have more lights out in 2018!

Here's the first for 2018! I haven't settled on a production design yet, so I'll just be making different ones as I go....

Material: Nickel Silver
Battery: uses an 18350 (not included)
Switch: McClicky with black boot and delrin retaining ring
Engine:. SOYCD Triple XP-G2 R5-3C ~5000K engine originally to fit Mac lights (will fit HMW Trident as well)
Notes: No clip. second pic shows an optic engine, but it has a triple....

SOLD - $300 Shipped.

Nice looking light and lathe work.
Bonus for a single LED version. Hope you consider a reflector version down the road.

I always liked the look and feel of nickel silver.

I'd forgotten the exact metal percentages so I did a quick lookup on Wikipedia, and nickel silver is typically about 60% copper, 20% nickel, and 20% zinc. So despite the name (unless silver plated), nickel silver objects actually contain no silver.

Re: FS: Light number 4 from Brat Guy Enterprises.

correct. it was originally developed to look like silver but not tarnish... This particular NS is Weiland-N31. it is bar ends from a musical instrument company that uses the NS for their instruments....
similar to the one below, which is NS with brass highlights....
