need more info on the milling mark! very cool!
Used very thin craft metal, cut the circle and used JB weld. Very simple, very easy. Then hit it with a file and sanding sponge.

I've been looking through my collection of V2 pics and so far I've yet to come up with anything crystal clear. However, the V3/shared stunt definitely has downward slanted cubes. Dan's 3d model definitely had downward slanted cubes (at least originally) and both his 1st and 2nd runs had them as well. When he started the unibody interest thread he stated they would be exactly the same as the previous runs with the exception of being solid. So, my guess is the unibody cubes were machined in error from the shop and are meant to have the slope.
Maybe we should ask Dan. I remember the post stating it would be the exact same, only a unibody, but also keep in mind, there was no mention of him having the uneven rings.
So glad he did that. Looks way way better. IMO
I'm not messing with the cubes. I was thinking about it, but I have to stop somewhere.
Mine is in the dishwasher as I type.
Will keep you posted with the results.

I think the list ends tomorrow meaning those who haven't paid go back burner and opens up the interested list.
Yes, I'm twisting your arm
Who you gonna call?
Round two or darkening. I used some liquid plumber and a small plastic tub. Emptied the liquid plumber , put the hilt in and covered with water till he hilt was fully submerged.
It darkened it up some. I let it sit until the entire hilt was black. Scrubbed with some scotch bright and washed of with dish soap. I'm going to put it back in the dishwasher again tonight and see what happens. I did keep the mixture in the container just incase I feel the need to do it again.

Thank you. I would have set it up and wondered why it looks funny. By then, it would have been painted, and a good chance of messing up my paint job.
Cudos Danny.
