Constantine: Lighter Project *UPDATE 04-09-2009 - Pics of brass parts are up*

Re: Constantine: Lighter Project *UPDATE 11-29-2007 - MASTER FINISHED!!! +PAINTED RES

I will try to keep it around $250. The new foundry i am using is a lot more expensive than the one i used before (for my omnis). But there are a lot of advantages: they are in the Netherlands where i live, their quality standards are very, very high, they use a much higher grade brass and they cast in a vacuum. So the results are nearly flawless.

all good things to those who wait.

Foundry has been very busy, they are currently molding the pieces.

Actually... I'm a bit glad about this delay, as it meant that I was able to jump on something else and still get money enough for this piece when the time comes. :lol

Call me a necroposter and I may have missed it, but is there any news about this project?
 
Re: Constantine: Lighter Project *UPDATE 11-29-2007 - MASTER FINISHED!!! +PAINTED RES

no news so far as I can tell.. I wish I had jumped on the resin one.. just to hold me over until the metal one came out. :love

Hi peeps,

Waiting for the first parts to get back from the foundry, they are just a 2 man shop and have been flooded with work lately.

As soon as the first parts are in and i know how much it will cost per lighter and how long they will take to finish, i will start an interrest thread.

cheers,

Marc

Re: Constantine: Lighter Project *UPDATE 05-18-2008 - Time to sign up for BRASS!!!!*

Noooooooo... this couldn't have come at a more terrible time for me... waaaaah :cry I'm moving next month and therefore have no funds to spare. As things are now, for me, I can't sign up for this.

I take it the 2nd run will happen immediately after the first one?

Good luck with the run.
