Re: Novelty Hand Grenade 445nm Build.!

HA that's awesome, great job!!! I like the pulling pin idea also but it'd seem easier to install on the bottom of the grenade as an on/off switch rather than on or around the focus lens IMO ;)

+:beer: when it lets me again!


:D

I can Put like a Key chain Ring in the Hole where the Wrist strap goes.?

I was going to see if i can fine some pins online which IIRC you can find and then The i ws going to do it is Drill a very small Hole into the side of the focus adapter that the pin would fit into.

Something like this:

Hand%20Grenade_image01.jpg


But It going into my focus adapter then how in the picture above it goes into the handle.

Cool build, and the fragmentation texture actually makes some sense where heatsinking is concerned... i love the combination of something novelty that actually helps it work better rather than worse.

Well... Now we all know what you were up to this weekend :D

Your reflection is kind of visible in two of those pics!

Edit: Pretty sure you crossed the line from "polished" to "mirror finish" now.

@Laserer

You make metal do things it's just not supposed to do. :worthy::worthy:

Give me a heads up the next time you are going to sell a polished host. I've got to get one! :) Even better if it's something totally unusual like this one.

I'd have given you some +rep, but the system won't let me. :(

Just saw this for the first time. If you threw that at me I'd haul ass, LOL.

Chrome?? It looks like liquid mercury. Your skills are amazing, and getting better all the time. I'd put that in one of those glass dome displays. Its beautiful.
