DRSD work in progress

[rosnik]

Hi,

I get started two weeks ago to get same moods to my two years hold DRSD replica.

On the first I get the holes for Gen spingbars.

To do it and to be sure to get same 1.4mm perpendicular holes, I build one wooden support to hold the SUB on the correct position and to void same tropic failure.

Than I reduced the case shape near the springbars area.

this because it was 26,62 mm and this void to 'see' the GEN sprinbars on the holes.

So I get one measure from one GEN sub and reduced to 25,60 mm .

Than I polished all the case.

Here you can see the final result , the bars are just were they have to be.

Next steeps are:

1- To replace the crystal with one with the correct DOME shape.

About this, your suggestions, and were to buy it, are welcome.

2- To correct the crown and the case crown area to the correct shape.

about this I see one great and interesting 3D from tribal:

UPDATE:

I get the extra work today.

I enlarged the crown area to the correct 8.0 mm , I remodeled the two CG to the correct shape and than I brushed and polished all, case, bezel and case back too.

Unfortunately , leaving the bezel, my plastic tropic is gone!

That's the pictures.

I hope you get your opinion about.

cheers

Hi guys!

Tomorrow I'll get new updated pictures.

I get one new gen. tropic , gen. tube and crown.

To get the new GEN. tube I holed the case to 2.8 and get the correct screw thread .

Cheers
