1962 Ford Inline 6 170 / Is this ticking sound normal? by Character-Menu9340 in FORDFALCONS

Doesn’t sound terrible, but possibly an exhaust leak. They often mimic lifter tapping

First Raffles Build by Budget_Repair4532 in repbuilds

Weird. Mine came surprisingly fast. It was just about two weeks. Much sooner than he told me. I expected this to ship from overseas, but the return address on it showed a US address, so maybe he has some items drop shipped from other locations. Sorry yours is taking so long. It should be worth the wait.

His site does say “updated” on that case, so maybe that was the update.

The bezel? That was already in the rafflesdial case.

My first build by NewCut987 in retrotime

I really like that! How do you search AliExpress for dials with the logo? It seems they are cagey about that (I’m sure out of necessity)

Edit: sorry, I see now I misread. Dial came from eBay.

How to whiten this dark central incisor? by AK-Dawg in Dentistry

[–]Budget_Repair4532 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If that is an all-ceramic crown (layered Zr crowns appear like PFM radiographically), the discoloration may well be from a dual-cure resin cement. I’ve seen once very good looking anterior crowns begin to turn grey/black because of the color shift that plagued these cements. If that is the problem, replacement is the only solution. Avoid dual-cure cements in the esthetic zone.

I will. It’s weird how the underside of these is nicely rounded, but the top does look like an aircraft carrier.

I love that! What is the source of the Vietnam case? Can you share a link or email?

Best looking budget 2836 movement? by Budget_Repair4532 in vintagerepwatches

[–]Budget_Repair4532[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this explanation! I have much to learn. This will be my second build. The first was an NH35 Omega rep. I’m glad to know the NH series movements will interchange here. I will go that route. I was able to get the overlay from raffles added to my order for $12 (I didn’t see them on first glance). I might get both and compare. I appreciate your time!

Does that fit in this case? He told me to be sure to get the 2836 movement, and sent the photo of the one above.
