March 7, 201411 yr Copper in its natty state is looking at what a blow job feels like.Just awesome. That blue patina tho!
March 7, 201411 yr I will take Nordson anyday over ITW!We are about to do some measurements for them.
March 7, 201411 yr Blah blah blah doesn't matter just trying to snag your attention Neal. Neal I know you know metal, so how do I make this http://www.ebay.com/itm/45mm-Copper-Long-Neck-Drip-Tip-for-Vivi-Nova-510-EGO-Atomizer-/380845652670?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58ac2b7abe look like the Copper above?

It could be done on a lathe, you would just need to be careful. I would start at the deepest cut and work my way out to the end. then just use emery closth to smooth out and use metal aging cream.

March 7, 201411 yr Back in 2000 I helped them redisign their high pressure recirculating system on their ATS melters and I believe they still use it.
March 7, 201411 yr My damn hands don't want to work and ach today. Spent 10 hours rebuilding a vector glue head and it sucked!I'm so sorry and know that feeling way too well. Thank you Matt. Some jobs have way too many little parts that have such a tight tolerance to contain the pressure and meter to persision and it seems I am the go to guy.

Why would you want to put a lot of time into something you can buy for $10-$15?
March 7, 201411 yr Because the mod definitely doesn't cost 10-15. I got to make the 12 dollar part match the $200 part.

Why would you want to put a lot of time into something you can buy for $10-$15? Unless, you could fabricate that tip yourself out of pure copper... aged.... for a reasonable price. I could always mail it to you to copy.
March 7, 201411 yr Because the mod definitely doesn't cost 10-15. I got to make the 12 dollar part match the $200 part.Guess that answers my question. $200 for that piece, is that retail or a deal?
March 7, 201411 yr Neal,He is trying to match that eBay price to another larger piece. He is hoping to get a similar finish on both.
March 7, 201411 yr #sexyasfuckart Well shit.... maybe I could... but I'd... God damn it Matt.I know right?You would have the ONLY one. To get blue patina it's a bit more involved than just vinegar and table salt, but definitely doable.Then lacquer the thing and be the baddest son of a bitch in town.
March 7, 201411 yr Neal,He is trying to match that eBay price to another larger piece. He is hoping to get a similar finish on both. Ok sometimes things go right over my head. I am sure it could be made, but dimensions would be a must.
March 7, 201411 yr Neal,He is trying to match that eBay price to another larger piece. He is hoping to get a similar finish on both. Ok sometimes things go right over my head. I am sure it could be made, but dimensions would be a must. The tip is a small 45mm high piece of copper plated aluminum I'm sure. It's not going to be solid. My best-case-scenario would be someone being able to fabricate the $12 tip out of solid copper, and blue patina it. Edit - And fuck you Matt for giving me another involved and spendy project to work on. LOL. My wife's going to be pissed. Edit x2 - Neal I ordered the $12 cheapie, so if it is possible to do and I can afford it, I can send it to you to "clone" as it's known in the business. Edited March 7, 201411 yr by gprestonmoto
March 7, 201411 yr Can you get me a drawing and I can see if I can make something out of aluminum on our lathe. Something that small might be a bit of a challange on our large equipment.
March 7, 201411 yr I will take Nordson anyday over ITW!We are about to do some measurements for them. Which plant?I think CA. It is only a $8k service so I don't really pay much attention. My role forces me to know about the big ones though

March 7, 201411 yr Applied for tech support position for the decommissioning work at Knolls Atomic Laboratory in upstate New York. Would be interesting work for sure. Edited March 7, 201411 yr by Penguin4x4

I dunno what you mean by a drawing. All I've got is a picture. Should have one in my possession in about a week. @Seth, I wanna do the blue Patina now, out of solid copper.
