Well here it is. You guys asked for it. My first complete light made from Titanium and completely by hand from scratch :D. It's a A19 head, A123 body and standard type tail cap. I don't have a Cree light engine to put in it but the tail cap is sporting a McClickie. I put a stainless bezel on it for a few of the pictures as you can see.

AWESOME job man, the finish is superb and you've got that precision aura in it.

How long do you think one needs to be training on a lathe before he/she can achieve such result?? JEEEEZ I NEED a lathe :huh:

Keep it going mate this really rocks!!

Mirage_Man,

Nicely done!! :thumbsup: You're a man after my own heart. :D

To coin a Timex phrase, that light will "take a lickin' and keep on tickin'". Cool!
