Lamp ^^^
Will last for ever. 2 thumbs up.
Don't get a shit one from the pound shop; the Chronos one is good.

**andy_con** · 02-23-2011, 04:23

only cos Chronos is your favourite shop!!

i was tempted to mill a lamp up

but ill probably end up getting that one.

ok loving DRO's, every mill should come with them as standard. they make milling so much quicker and easier, i dont have to stand there like a dick with a calculator trying to work out how many turns of the handles i need to do.

photos for ya dan

only took about an hour to knock this 3 diode holders up, so much quicker than before
