Hi Guys Some time ago I needed some hotlips. There were NONE to be had. So I hunted around for a place to make me some copies of the Premium Hotlips that we all know and love. One thing led to another and I decided to have a few made. I did have a problem with Hotlips. I was bad at centering the emitter. I am Just bad at at.
I had a good 10% failure rate. I found it very frustrating(and expensive). This required a slight redesign of the pedestal. So that is what I did. You see the result here:

Guess what!! It works. It works perfectly!!
Here are the next generation of D cell O-SINKS.
The change is that I added new modified self centering pedestal from the c cell units. This while holding the emitter perfectly centered it allows any excess adhesive easy escape. Top unit is the matte black anodizing (these are really nice). Lower left is the chemcote and on the right is untreated. I love my metal surface guys. They were able to clean 90 and mask and anodize 60 parts for me over night.
They did a great job.

Thank you.

Cash or credit. Just keep in mind that if you use a credit card I will get a little less cash.
Let your conscious be your guide.

Well, since you're trying to make me feel guilty, I guess I'll have to risk getting in trouble with the wife again. I was hoping to hide my purchase until next month since my quota for the month has been exceeded by 300% /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mecry.gif

Cash PP sent.

Thx,
ernest

Re: FS: \"D\" cell HotLips with pedestal Redesign

Wow Amazing!! What a response!! Up till now I have responded to all PM's.
You guys caught me a little off guard. So in order to preserve my sanity I will be doing a mass mailing on MONDAY.
All orders placed by Monday morning will ship Monday.
You do not need to PM me with your order unless you have questions. I will post here when I run very low on the sinks.
Last night I built up a couple of lights using the new sinks and I have to tell you it just takes ALL the guess work out of centering the emitter. I am just so pleased at how thees turned out.
Oh yes just so that you know. when you look at these they don't as shiny as HOTLIPS. That is because there not. After machining they are tumbled in some strange mixture of little ceramic things and solvent. This knocks all the SHARP EDGES off and dulls them down a bit. I thought this was a nice touch.
