Never thought I would say it but I like this better than the black GT Knurl and that's saying a lot. This design is just so pleasing! How long does it take to build a blank?

Hi Terry the last lot I did I made 4 of them in a day and another day just to drill out and turn 3 of them with stops to allow for the metal to cool and repairs as bits broke loose this was the last one today what made these harder is all the aluminium I used in place of the white plastic I never had one of the original design come apart with the white plastic and just the box aluminium

I agree, the blank is superb and top notch finish..

However, you know there is always one with me..:winking:

I think you need specsavers, push the cap in square, it's on the skunt:wink:

Just between the clip and the body mate.

Otherwise it's an absolute stunner and is def a keeper, I would too.
