Re: PARTS ARE BEING MACHINED !!!

Parts are being machined right now.

Here are the 1st photos I took in the CNC shop an hour ago.

I guess they will be finished this week, depending on the availability of the machining center, needed to do the tailcap keyhole and the heatsink holes.

Re: PARTS ARE BEING MACHINED !!!

Cool Update.

I bet not many CNC shops would let you take photos or even visit the shopfloor?

Re: PARTS ARE BEING MACHINED !!!

Here is different /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

highly trained professionals still have the human touch /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Not only the photos, I went to the shop because they saw a potential problem in the blue prints (oring placeholder) and we (emphasis on WE) worked next to the machine to find the best solution /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

These are great guys!

the shop is in Avellaneda, so Independiente or Racing is more appropiate /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: NEOCA BL CR2 - LAST CALL - Actual parts photos!

UPDATE:

A picture is worth a 1000 words:

neocabl60.jpg

(I know many will ask, that thing at the side is a mate, its an infusion, google for yerba mate)


This is the first finished production unit /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The only parts that need to be finished are:

heatsink post lathe work (holes)
tailcap key ring attachment.



Today I went to the anno shop with all the pieces pictured in a previous post and asked them to hard annodize in different colors according to this table:

black minimum beadblast
blue medium beadblast
blue higher beadblast
green
violet
red
yellow
(Natural I already posted the color so no need for that one.)



As soon all the parts are here and the color samples are ready to be seen. I will close the order thread.

The stars & reflectors are still on the way here.
And after I close the order I will purchase the converters from the shoppe.


Thanks


Pablo

Re: NEOCA BL CR2 - LAST CALL - Actual parts photos!

PEU, please put me on "the list" for:
NEOCA BL / NextGen500 = $150+10 S/H
in black or natural HA

On a side note, think of Yerba Mate as a loose leaf tea that you drink through a straw with a strainer built in.
I miss S.A. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
thanks,
chris

Re: NEOCA BL CR2 - LAST CALL - Actual parts photos

all requests updated.


dbrad (and many others too): you know how to get the best deal!!!

2 x beadblasted + special color + ng500=$170*2=$340
1 finish and 1 color if you order 2 are free so=$320
then comes the 10% off, so $320 - 10%= $288

Total saved= $52 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wow.gif
(and an extra $2 ($9 x 2) when shipped /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)

Pablo,

I had intended to order a "brass" unit. Please update, if possible.

Thanks,

Re: NEOCA BL CR2 - LAST CALL - Actual parts photos

UPDATE:

neocabl61.jpg

Full size image

This photo shows the difference between standard brass (head) and the actual NEOCA BL one (base).

It keeps the shine for weeks as opposed to 1 day in brass.


Another update:

neocabl62.jpg


heatsinks are ready /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You know this is an Argentinian product when even the lights drink mate. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Pablo, I wonder if submerging the light in mate will increase the output /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif (just kidding, of course)
