[Dr.Verylong]

Great, enjoy

Edit: Sea Mail takes six weeks.

you wont have a assembled watch in a week, but you'll have a lot of fun

 

[Bonesey]

No, but i bet i have a few dis-assembled ones

 

[notreallyreplica]

That looks like a lot of fun!

Modding always is less daunting with the proper tools.

I've ruined many a crappy rep with my eyeglass screwdriver and mini mallet lol.

 

[Wiz]

You'll have a lot of fun with these mate, congrats!!

 

[boostin20]

Congrats!

 

[Fortey]

take some in-progress project pics, I'd love to see how it goes. I'm really tempted to get some tools myself. I was about to order from Watchbitz but then I remembered that I'm in NYC and the diamond district is closeby.

Enjoy!!

 

[acharria]

Lovely...
I want a mat too...

 

[Bonesey]

Unfortunately my work space is less that optimal. But i've tried to get a surface that's quite tall so I'm not hunched over a lot. Think I need to get a decent stool though rather than my PC chair.

 

[murklemark]

I need to get all that shizzle so I can do some basic modding. I think I may have to clean out my office first though.

 

[revhrd]

congrats bonesey now on to break, I mean mod watches...

 

[Bonesey]

I need to get all that shizzle so I can do some basic modding. I think I may have to clean out my office first though.

Just spent the last 4-5 hours doing just that. Completely re-arranged it. Got rid of the single bed in there and moved in like 8 quadrillion books from the other room. Also changed where everything was. Damn dusty as well.

What it looks like now;

 

[Wiz]

Nice office mate, now be prepared to spend half of your time hunting every particle of dust!

 

[Bonesey]

I would really like to get a small desk at the right height for working on watches. You can see the cutting pad on top of the bookcase. It's at the right height but it's a pain to sit at. As you can see, however, there's not much room left for such a desk :/

 

[Bonesey]

Quick question, on the hand removers should both of the white pads depress when you squeeze the outside??

 

[Wiz]

Yes they should, no worries

You need to use that presto hands remover very gently, because it's very easy to damage hands with that type of hands remover.

 

[Wuggy]

the frustration begins

 

[d4m.test]

You're all set to go, B.! Hope to see some of the results of your work in the near future!

Congrats and good luck.

Lots of goodies. I've wanted a self healing mat for years- why I don't pick one up is beyond me.

The mancave looks like it's coming along nicely. Is the wakizashi a live blade or just a bit of decor?
