Want better screws for the control box. edit: ah, the kill switch is a tiny drawer knob? I forget... had to bore the hole out to fit the plastic nub which kinda hurts and is for sure as hell hard to get out with just your fingers. Used some left over epoxy ... it set crooked but I just needed something to get the damn thing out quickly. Glad I got that version of the kill key. Honestly I think it was the only one left in stock lol. Title: Re: Reaper mod. Post by: Darth Nelo Angelo on April 05, 2016, 06:31:02 AM That looks awesome dude.. Love the activation box.

I had to cut that part for the switchbox out; which was crazy. Went to town on that piece though and learned a lot. Weathering seems like some fun. Grab bag may be in my future, distant future... My wifes over it. ;) Title: Re: Reaper mod. Post by: RevanReborn on April 05, 2016, 12:08:31 PM Awesome!! Stunning job :). Yeah I'm also a big fan of that box, great call- great call on all the pieces actually, everything really goes together/ flows beautifully! Very clean/ pro assembly. Point awarded.
I think the additional swapping for brass would really set it off too. The ones in the box are cool IMO, though I can relate, I always prefer button/ square/ hex etc., basically anything that looks more like a rivet as opposed to Robertson or Philips (square/ star) or slotted- dunno why though lol. Title: Re: Reaper mod. Post by: Bulvoy on April 05, 2016, 12:12:37 PM Good job on the box. Looks good. By the post I assume in the back of your mind your thinking on ways to make things more smooth when in use. Have you considered flat head screws and counter sinking them vs the brass button heads? The nub you could always create a cone housing

Wiring in the LED was easy but tricky. Had figure that one out. Gonna work out a chassis system for my next build. Title: Re: Reaper mod. Post by: Caedyss on April 12, 2016, 09:58:51 AM Dude. Thats sexy as hell! +1
