gmg_3 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 I'm glad this attempt has met with the collective's approval! Serial number requests can be accommodated and although my "purpose in life" (thanks, M) has been a decent explorer I can probably do other models as long as I can find some examples. I do foresee problems making some of the vintage engraving looking hand done, though... This case is not perfect but I think it's as close as I can get without making it cost too much. It would be really nice to have a nice $20k CNC machining center that would take a chunk of 316 and turn out a finished case with the touch of a button! I would donate a few benji's to the cause. How bout a kick starter fund ? 1
jmb Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Posted February 7, 2015 I appreciate the enthusiasm but getting a kick-a$$ machining center would be the easy part, finding somewhere to put it would be something else altogether!
ww12345 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Haha - just build on an addition to the house! I'm sure swmbo would be good with that...
Frazzle1 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 I love these updates from you Justin and your strive to continually improve your case set! Although I now have a ready made SpaceDweller with your bezel, installed I think I will have to invest in one of these enhanced cases with the lug and case back engraving.
Champagnesky Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 I would donate a few benji's to the cause. How bout a kick starter fund ?i dont think it would be hard to collect 20k from the members for a good cause.
Ssouthall6 Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 One of these that can house a 3135 would be a fantastic addition to the portfolio JMB! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
jmb Posted February 8, 2015 Author Report Posted February 8, 2015 I dropped in a yuki 3135 and datejust dial and although the movement fits the stem height is wrong...
jmb Posted February 8, 2015 Author Report Posted February 8, 2015 Haha - just build on an addition to the house! I'm sure swmbo would be good with that... Unfortunately there is no 440/3 phase in this neighborhood...
Rudy4010 Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 Awesome I see myself sending some PMs your way ! Congrats on the accomplishment! No easy feet! Sent from my Rolex thinking brain!
StoneP Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 Excellent Job as usual Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
AKTime Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 If you could set this up to do the 16610 subs, that would be awesome and I'm sure more work than you could handle
kidcreole Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 I've got a sterile st3035 case that could do with some 16800 engravings! Great work.
