Wow, love them. Do the Omegas only come in chrome? The brass would look nice in gun metal.

Terry I agree Gun metal would look good, but as the brass darkens the chrome my look well

James you have gone from brush finish to smooth this time using brass I went to a local firm that does powder coating for a project using brass for a pen to complete some time and he ran it through at no charge he was quite intrigued. I have a reaction with brass and it tarnishes real quick, Les Elm in Canada makes from brass cartridges by the many hundreds and dip varnishes his the method used is in the library on the IAP when you go army ie no finish it then is your choice what the heck or future polish following my Army Service my choice is easy.
You have done really well what name has the model makers lathe? I have two American Taig Lathes and A Hercus I use for metal and yes I use the wood lathe for finishing.
