I made an aluminum switch guard the for my A2 last night and liked the way it came out so I'm planning on trying it in two other materials and wondered if I should make extras for sale here?
I don't have anyway of anodizing (anyone have a link to "home cooking?"), so I'm going to try brass and high temperature Nylatron (has a slight carbon fiber "camouflage" look) to see which I like best.
mahoney sent me his specs from his Delrin run, but I didn't have them at work so I winged it. It came out looking the same though as the ones found at http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=82851
This post is just to see if there is enough interest to make extras, because if I do I'll buy the tap/die instead of cutting threads for everyone.
I hope to post samples of each in a few days.
Thanks.

(Updated 05/28/06: making in Delrin only now and with the lowest profile I can that still allows the light to tail stand. QC is very good now that I've made a few. )
