I like the head of the large one. Where can I get one of those - and a reflector (terralux already installed)

I cut the switch down and .200 inch on the reflector to get the head to fit down on the body more with the TerraLUX installed.

Will those progression pics looks really nice.

What you forgot to mention is the timelaps, for the non-machinist to truly appreciate it.

Status - I have sent the tailcaps to the Nickel Plate shop. They should have them Thursday. They usually take 3-4 days to do the work. I hope to have them back towards the end of next week.

Just an FYI - these used to be shipped first class mail, now it looks like they have to go first class mail-package which is a different rate due to the thickness of the package. These will be sent with delivery confirmation.
