So I guess this is Version FIVE.

I went with MPS#6 to keep the "smooth lines" theme, but I was also able to break up the boring with the painted ribbed section (black epoxy, cured) - which IMHO seems to work perfectly. Brand new CF V4.1, down-sized to 14500s more comfortable fit inside. Also, it's freshly wet-sanded and re-finished to give it that "fresh from the temple" glint.

That's a nice, low profile switch. That flawless, satin looking aluminum is damn clean.

Great work as always Eastern. I'm digging the epoxy in the grooves. I agree that O-Rings aren't the greatest

grassy, chaps! I'm pretty proud of this one - probably because it's the latest of a constantly on-going struggle with my own critiques. ;)

But I appreciate the words - right back at you, gentlemen! :D

Mmmmm... Shiny with swoopy lines. It looks so comfy it could almost give a message.
