My 1016'd 1601

I'll do a build thread once it's here with some more pictures. I'm excited, because it looked like this the last time I saw it ...

"...clone the Stilty ring."

 

I made a few adapter rings in a lathe using a thick brass flat washer and they turned out real good. I made them so the dial could be cemented to the adapter...this is the main advantage of the Stilty adapter ring. It takes quite a bit of time for me to make one though.

 

Stilty's rings were CNC machined.

I guess it is the summer of the 1016 - mine is going out for a lume - beautiful Whoopy dial and MBK case...

Sorry for the blurry pics - my d@mn shaky hands...
