When it comes to doing up a Graflex, the innards are the only part you can get creative with.
I want to do a MHS or other fully custom build where the hilt will be the creative part, and the...

First lighting test. I still need to add more to spice up the CC look.
Blue looks nice.

Yes, I made the PCB boards myself. Had to learn a new skill, which is always fun.

Solved my own problem recently after having a batch of old HDD's to experiment on.
Simplest solution is to drill 2 or more holes on the outside of the drive case such that the holes will line up...

It would be 'very very very nice' if there was a system in place that allowed us reserve stock to fulfill an order.

I notice that all the JST connectors in the store are relatively huge.
I found some miniature ones locally in a hobby store which would be nice to see as an offer in here.

Graflex Brass Pin Tool
It would be nice if TCSS could buy and resell some of these pin tools to make for a one stop shopping experience.

This is what I meant. Technically its called a stator coil. But it's pressed on, and glued, so is very difficult to remove. I have managed but with significant damage to the part in the process....

Does anyone have tips on how to get the staters out of HDD's without destroying them in the process?

Yes to Canada Post, as you might expect. :)
$12 vs $40 is a no brainer.
And Fedex sucks, but all such companies suck if you are trying to deliver to your home.
I've seen them ring and run and...

Thanks RJ for the kind offer. As mentioned I found the spring from my second, more beat up Graflex, to use in my first build. The other Graflex will probably be simpler and not require one. The...

If anyone has an idea, great. But for now I was lucky enough to find my spare from a second graflex I had laying about. I thought its spring long lost, but with much poking about was able to find...

I need a spring to keep my hilt innards pressed up towards the blade, and was using the original big spring that came with the flash unit. But, sadly, I thought it was too tight/long so I cut it down...

Thanks SS. I'll have to wait and see what a new battery last for as I'm currently mid re-build, and have nothing completed to test a new battery in.

Can I ask what kind of usage you get out of a single charge on the 18500?
I ask because I posted a question here asking if it's worth it to use one in my build.
Thanks,
Al

I have the Nano Biscotte Sound Module V1, and the Seul P4 White, and a 18650 3.7 Li-ion battery which all works well enough.
But, working in a ANH Graflex chasis I really need space to work in a new...

I like it. Cool work.
Can I ask where you found or bought the perforated metal? Is it a tube or a curved plate? I've been scouring the internet for some to use as an 18650 battery shroud. ...

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever managed to incorporate EL Tape into their hilt innards of a sabre to get a glowing effect. I know EL blades are covered in the forum, but I'm curious to try adding...

Sorry to belabor the topic :) but when you say cheaper, you're referring to non-fedex ground of some kind? And, to confirm, it be applicable for li-ion batteries. If so, I would probably order a...

Oddly, so is shipping anything to Canada. It seems $39/$40 is the minimum shipping estimate I can pay for anything from the TCSS to Canada.
