Looks fantastic! Doing lume smoothly, without metal plots is very difficult. You've shown extreme talent. Some of the best lume I've seen, for a secondary lume job. Congrats!

Thank you sir! I tend to be a perfectionist and detailed so I try to translate that into my work. I'll admit it's not always perfect but I damn sure try to make it that way!! Haha :) I need a stylograph that would make life much easier... But $2,500 from Tritech is a tad crazy!!

Forget fast the Stylograph Bro ;)

1. That TriTec Vacuum Machine isn't made by Tritec
2. The Stylograph Pen that you need is Patented by TriTec and they don't sell it.
3. If you work with an Stylograph Pen you need much much more Lume Powder as by Hand

The Machine self you can get much cheaper...

At the Skeleton B&R you Lume only the Hands right? Not the Dial?

But all in all You get better and better :) go on with that Bro...

If you want an really nice Stylograph write Franck Muller and ask them if they send you there Patented Stylopen :D
If they sell you one order directley 2x of them :D

This PEN would be an Dream... Not working with these unhandleable Needel sh..t

I spoke to Elisabeth and all of these things are for sale. She sent me a price list/documentation and you can buy all parts Necessary to use it except the air compressor. Which I already have one. ;) So the Zeller Stylograph is indeed for sale!! I'm mainly interested in the pen as I can source a cheaper EFD in the USA. 220 CHF or about $230 usd for the pen and 6 nozzles.
