OH they're staying climbers and compacts.  Just a straight up conversion.

I keep finished brass parts in mineral oil.  Then when I build with them I buff well with a soft cloth and it gives them a nice shine.

Coming along nicely.  Brass is such a lustrous material.  I just don't love the smell.

I accepted a SAK mod job from an architect firm to do a bulk job SAK mod to Include their logo on the front.  40 saks, 30 will be brass and 10 Ti. 
I was assuming I could do the job in 2 weeks or less so we will se how that goes.   :whistle:

Looks like you did not quite make the two weeks :whistle:    :D

Gotta say I don't think much of their logo - Especially for an architects' firm - Would have expected something much more creative 

Finally done!  This job almost killed me... but its good to be finished.
Anyway well done - Into the recovery period now   ;)   .... And no doubt catching up on all the other jobs!!    :tu:

Machine then anodize for each color in descending order of voltages.   Anodizing a lower voltage won't effect color from a higher voltage.
