Latest parts box build...

[projectologist]

When the parts from other builds start piling up, I get the urge to see what I can put together.

 

I finally had enough to slam together a decent 111 build combining HF and Noob parts.  Most of the time was spent on modding the cg as close to gen as I could get.

 

Still working on the movement, so will post more pics when that's done.

 

Re-polished every part except for the case back and cg.  Necessary SOP for most SS PAM reps.

 

A couple of phone pics for now...

 

 

 

On top of my favorite PAM coffee cup...

 

 

 

Sharpened the engraving and gave the buckle and tang a re-polish...

Looks very good there. The attention to detail is spot on. Once the movement is in, it'll be nigh-on indistinguishable from a gen!

Looks very nice. I am looking at a 111, but seeing yours a bog standard ver 3 may not be good enough. 

 

projectologist, what polish and Tool do you use to get that Glass like finish?

Thanks! 

 

Here's a link to the compounds I use ( thanks to member w0lf for the recommendation! )  This one in UK for you...  http://www.thepolishingshop.co.uk/acatalog/Guide_to_Menzerna_Compounds.html

 

I use 8" cotton buffing wheels and a bench buffer.
