After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.
Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.
Hi Derrilex have you thought about something along the lines of the cog style steam and water dials like on the Wega? George
Too hard to do. Well, I'll put it another way. If it aint round, I aint doing it. Just takes too much time as the cut outs have to be done by hand then hand sanded and polished.
Ok, a new project for my machine. I was getting a headache thinking of a good colour combo when it occurred to me that clear would be pretty funky. Seeing all the hardware is something different and I reckon its bloody unreal. I love the distortion. It makes the bolt look enormous. Its a 120 mm M12 x 1.75 SS cup heap with the cup cut off.
Derrilex Those clear handles sure are very confronting & totally different. Unlike you, my technical capabilities limit me to only being able to offer ludicrous ideas, so here's two more: 1. Have you played with painting the bolt/thread a colour like blue or something before inbedding it into the handle.... 2. A clear handle with blue LED inside it with a cleverly concealed battery compartment Yes, Please laugh

I thought of a colour for the bolt but not an LED That will be different if its doable KK
