    [QUOTE=blueridgedog]What do you mean sliding doors?  I have done a fair bit of stabilized wood skins on a metal frame, but the door issue is always a PITA.  Love to see what you came up with.  Great looking mod and though I have made all my current vape gear, I would love a PM if you decide to make a batch.

    looks like a sliding batt door. could be wrong tho.

    Thank you!! Aluminum sliding door, indistinguishable from the fixed case side. Think "BB" style, there's some intricate machining going on here. THIN, but incredibly strong. Noted, will PM when I run. Best, Wick

    Wick.. that is butiful.. i am realy into that kind of thing,, i have a sheet of bur walnut been sat under some books since last year, i need to find someone with, i think its a cnc machine to grind a gbox sides so i can inlay the same, awsome work..

    Thank you!! Yes anyone competent with a milling machine (manual or cnc) could machine a recess for inlayed wood panels, as long as theres some thickness to work with. Best, Wick
  4. Agreed! So true they look way blue'er in pics, it was nearly impossible to capture the more "white" one (more purple hue compared to others). Had to put them on a strange angle, and it still didn't do it justice. Many pics I tried had them both just looking blue in the photo. In any case they are both very acceptable colors, both nice, both clean. Would not have noticed anything if I didn't have them lit side by side. Wick

    [QUOTE=xevape][QUOTE=FireBALL][QUOTE=xevape][QUOTE=FireBALL]After looking at xevape's Hammond 1590a mod,  I decided to make a face plate for it and also a oLED holder.  It will be available on shapeways in a day or so


    I get a few free right, ya know for the idea...   ;-)



    of course ;)[/QUOTE]

    You should add a little + and - under the buttons[/QUOTE]

    Shapways version has two buttons, basically with and without[/QUOTE] Dido on this?
  9. Keep meaning to ask this... I've noticed a significant difference of the screen "whiteness" between sample boards and Opus200 screen. The opus is a hell of a lot "whiter" than both the two sample boards from Evolve and the pair I purchased from a distributor. Much proffering the Opus200 crispness (lack of blue). Both are set to 100% brightness through Escribe. Brandon, can I get the "Opus" screens when ordering qty? Oh and how can I get a replacement screen or two? I killed one bending the flat wire, like an idiot, far too close to the screen edge... o_O Thanks, Wick

    Those are cheaper and use philips head screwdriver. The T5 strips pretty easy. [/QUOTE] Torx are way better than Phillips any day of the week for me... You want nice screws go for these: http://us.screwerk.com Best, Wick

    For the 3D printed where did you get the screws needed to attach the DNA to the 3D Printed posts?   I can't for the life of me figure out where to get the screws.    I do have one of these cases.   Also what did you use to raise the LED Display and keep it flush?

    thank you

    [/QUOTE] Screws: http://www.mcmaster.com/#thread-forming-screws/=ya8xst Screen: Double sided foam tape, to press it snugly against the inside front. That's what worked for my plastic... John ;) Wick

    I don't think the KSJ switches buy you any more room the limiting factor to how close to the case you can get the board is the USB socket and the outside face and on 1.6 mm thick case like a Hammond 1590A that leaves plenty of room for the on-board switches.

    1590A with 950 mAh

    100%... Unless it's the audible loud click your after, you can achieve the exact same look of the KSJ Series switches with machined ball nose actuators, allowing you an array of materials and finishes on them. It's been a while since I've looked at those switches but I'm confident in recalling that they did not compare mechanical cycle life wise to the last switches on Evolv's 40s (KSE Series), KSEs are rated for at least three fold the actuation cycles in comparable actuation forces. I would have to assume the new switches on the DNA200 to be rated similar or better than the KSEs of previous boards. Wick

    [QUOTE=Wick]Shapeways DNA200 Reference Case printed in blk. Just playing with plastic!!



    Just curious if you put a clear coat or anything on that print. Just from personal experience in the past I had my first shapeways printed mod in the dyed variety and I didn't put any coating on it. Eventually it started to show and I now put a matte clear coat on all my prints before assembly and they seem to hold up better for longer.[/QUOTE] No, but that is a great call.
