Done / Completed Graflex Conversion Blade Plugs ** FINAL UPDATE 5/13

Re: Graflex Conversion Blade Plugs ** COLLECTING PAYMENTS 3/25

Hey guys, just wanted you to know that we've got all orders that have been paid for shipped out! We're now finalizing all weathered plugs and getting everything ready for our second half of the run being paid for and sent out as well. International shipping prices have changed so I'll be sure to update all of you through PM's and the like for when your individual orders are ready to be shipped!

Sorry about the long wait guys! This turned out to be a bigger project than either of us expected in the time frame that we decided to make it.

Thanks again!

I know those of you waiting on your weathered plugs are probably pretty tired of waiting, but I figured I'd throw some pictures around. Here's the GBA in blue and a 2.0 in green!

Great news!

The weathered ones are 99% finished! Here's proof for all you none believers :p



We're just working on 4 more, but the rest of them are now finished and ready to be shipped. I'll shoot PM's soon for payment and then shipping!

Thanks for your all your dedication and for sticking with us on this run!

Did you put the acrylic tube on a lathe to sand it so it's frosted?
I bought a tube for my Graflex 2.0, but I don't have a lathe so I'm thinking of ways to make it frosted

Yes, that's exactly what we did. Do you have a drill? You can set a drill up like a mini lathe for frosting purposes by chucking in the tubing and running the drill, and then holding fine grit sand paper to it.

Hmm, the OD for the tube is like 3/4" though, I don't think I can fit that on my drill.

I've also thought about wrapping an acetal rod with sand paper and attaching it to the drill, so I can sand the inside of the tube.

You definitely could do that. If you had a piece of wood of something that could fit inside of the tubing pretty snug, you could drill a small hole, run a nut and bolt through it and then chuck the nut on the drill. Sanding the inside might look better though, since it wouldn't leave that rough outer texture
 
Re: Graflex Conversion Blade Plugs ** NEW PAYMENT COLLECTION 5/4

Oh man that might work too. The tube is like 6' so I can probably cut it in half and do it with both methods. Thanks for the ideas!

Still have not received an invoice... Will you be sending out PMs with payment info for the weathered plugs

Yes sorry I thought I'd have them in by today but my post office pick up closed at noon, so I couldn't retrieve them. I'll pick them up when I get off shift tomorrow and start sending out PMs for payment
 
Re: Graflex Conversion Blade Plugs ** NEW PAYMENT COLLECTION 5/4

Still haven't got the shipment yet, so tomorrow is looking like the day!

Getting ready to ship, just waiting on a few more people to respond for payment!
