An eventful day in Marky HQ

Post by Marky610 » 12 Nov 2012, 19:06

Fixed the leaky fill valve in my FX Cutlass

Stripped down Markylight Mk4 for anodizing

Changed the led in the pill for a ir one

Blew up a 4" screen trying to modify it slightly :crazy:

Made 3 Watec DSA adapters

Blew up my battery charger anodizing the lamp :shock:

Anyone want a slightly grey lamp? :mrgreen:

Sounds like a very eventful day, does the lamp still work or is that blown up also: Dave

Be keen to see the Watec DSA's you have made.
I got the Pulsar Challenger DSA but it is very easy for the camera to be knocked off centre, ie. changing the point of aim.

Looking good mate!
So what's the package deal worth for the Watec DSA and the MarkyLight Mk4?
My name is already down for the light but I think I need this Watec adapter as well.

You do need a small milling machine though.

Sorry what do you mean?

I can throw one of the adapters in the parcel bud for an extra £15

Oh I meant a milling machine would be good for cutting the slots with precision. :thumbup:
Was just being silly really...

Put me down for the adapter bud. Very impressed.
