While I'm waiting for parts to be anodised I made a 18500 body to go with the head I'm working on... :grin2:
Nothing fancy...the tailcap is just twist on/off and push-button for momentary.



Thanks for looking,
Colin.

Nothing fancy eh?! That's some really nice looking work there. Just out of curiosity what kind of lathe are you using?

Thanks for your comments guys :)

Mirage_Man. My lathe is an old Southbend Heavy Ten...Luckily for me it has imperial screwcutting.

skalomax. Although I had planned to make this, its going no further than this one at the moment. I'd like to make a good job of the LED Head first. :sweat:

Wow...did'nt you get a good deal!!! Especially with all that tooling. :green:
My Southbend is almost the same as yours...just minor differences. I'll post some pic's to your thread later.

Looking forward to seeing your creations/mods.
