ettienne Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 I posted a "beat down pam" on TRC and said that I had another project. Well this is it. I took a fiddy case and had it coated with TiN coating. It is typically used on tools to keep their hardness for a longer period of time. I took out the fiddy dial which was scratched up from a broken mineral crystal...and I completely took the paint off. Next I airbrushed the dial with a flat black mixed with a dot of silver metallic. Bought a new 6947 and voila...All in all, I'm pretty happy with it.
tonton2000 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 I like the case finish. Very nice
Chronus Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Nice.. did you replace the crystal with AR coated davidsen?
ettienne Posted November 12, 2006 Author Report Posted November 12, 2006 Nice.. did you replace the crystal with AR coated davidsen? no, I bought a crystal from davidsen before he was selling them coated...I had my eye doctor coat it...not cheap but definitely coats it with more of a blue tinge...
