jonniemac Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Don't think I've posted this one over here yet. Main body is machined from 6061 aluminum and then cerakoted graphite black. Buttons and side plates are sunspot pearl Kirinite. Uses the Evolv 510 connector and a Turnigy A-Spec 1300 mAh battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_nm Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Wow! Those buttons are really nice, jonniemac. How do you like the Evolv 510? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonniemac Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Thanks! The buttons are machined from Kirinite which is an acrylic that is typically used for gun handles or knife scales. They make a bunch of interesting colors and patterns. The Evolv 510 is really nice ... but ... it can be a bit of a challenge installing the small inside snap ring.

chris_nm Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Interesting material. I have been looking at micarta blanks, but can't decide on a color/pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started down the CNC path about a year ago by taking a 4 day class at Tormach. It is far more complicated and expensive than I ever imagined. After 8 months of owning the machine I finally feel like I'm making some good progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

blueridgedog Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think "BB" style, there's some intricate machining going on here. THIN, but incredibly strong. Noted, will PM when I run. Best, Wick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nykademos Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 It was James Dean, but when i went to cf wrap and put better up/down buttons, i shorted the chip. I've decided that hard-wiring batteries is a no-no. I'm now using the venom 1300 35c (85*30*19.5mm) in this mod and in my copper 1590g, perfect fit for both and a better battery than those squishy turnigys, wrapped the battery to match the mod and have an extra sliding lid that you can change out.

I ordered a Turnigy 950 Lipo just in case the 1300 don't fit cuz it's tight! Can you get the exact measurement in mm of the battery? I will be ordering the same one and need to know if it's any bigger then listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VapingBad Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 The community spreadsheet includes real battery dimensions it would be great if you have ran the analyser to add these, it also has many categories of resources.https://forum.evolvapor.com/topic/65816-topic/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djvanlandingham Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I don't have calipers so it's unscientific but i came up with (in mm) A=73 B=34 C=20. The websitehttp://www.buddyrc.com/glacier-45c-1300mah-3s-11-1v-lipo-battery.htmllist the size as A=70 B=33 C=20. I read somewhere on a RC forum that the Glacier battery's were very reliable. I googled it and found the site above and saw that it was one of the smallest 1300 so i thought i would give it a shot in a 1590g case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plangco Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks for the measurements. On another website it listed it as 70x33x26, which is to tall to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
