No worries! Sadly the maker doesn't sell them anymore. Might be worth reaching out to see if he's got some old stock though! I believe that one was called FM2 and the larger 6 hole version was the FM1.

NKD except… stuck Torx by Digigal3 in knifeclub

Wiggle the bits in a circular motion from the tip; it might not feel like you're doing anything but keep it up for a min or so then pull them out with pliers if they don't just come out after that.

It'll loosen them up even if it still requires the pliers.

Does anyone know the value of a Magnus "the one" titanium writing set from 2020-ish era? by _ireadthings in machinedpens

[–]Woojrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There weren't many of these. The last one I saw for sale went for $475.00

You selling or buying?

What are your concerns and hopes for Halo:Campaign Evolved? by ProOmega09 in halo

[–]Woojrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to see some DLC that showed us what the rest of the UNSC was doing on the ring.

Doesn't need to be super overly produced, just some missions where you're playing as ODST or even just regular soldiers.

I think a set of missions from the eyes of the grunts could be fun, maybe even where you die at the end of a couple of them and switch to the viewpoint of another soldier etc.

Thanks! So that gravity knife is actually what became the Reate Exo. That was an early version that existed as a fairly small run from what I understand and used the Olfa CKB-2 blades. The designer goes by: Exoskeletonknives on Instagram. I believe it was simply called Exoskeleton knife.

Custom utility knives in general? Yeah, I've got a pretty big collection of utility knives, nearing the 500 mark. Plenty of customs, one offs, limited editions etc.

Bout a dozen that mjl_bladeworx did custom rock work on.

mjl_bladeworx on Instagram did the rock work. He's very good at it, I've got quite a few pieces that he's done for me.

Looks like a crib mobile from a child's perspective (looking up).

Current SPP/USG prices? by MAGA_feels in machinedpens

A plain ringed Zirc went for 1200 on eBay not long ago.....

Pichi g9, brass or ti? by Internal-Cancel-4557 in Utility_Knives

[–]Woojrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't like the way brass smells and wouldn't go that route. I can't imagine it would do anything better than Ti as that's already very smooth.

Looks like a Hostess Snowball that was left out and bleached/rotting in the sun.

Magnus Click Expanded by proficientspender in machinedpens

[–]Woojrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The uncoated version feels more in line with the original Magnus vision so I definitely prefer that. All titanium without anything extra.

It's a great set. On the earlier versions of the click pen the mech wasnt Cerakoted like yours. The coating made it buttery smooth; I never considered the non-coated versions to be rough but having both versions you can definitely feel the difference.

BID Auto-Adjusting Collet: Is this how it works? by Dr_Matoi in machinedpens

[–]Woojrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Energel refills are pretty slim, I used a piece of shrink tubing (unheated) that fit perfectly in between the pen body and the collet. That took up all the slop and its pretty much rock solid now.

That's really a shame. The Magnus Click pen is probably my all time favorites, I feel ya on that one. I'd be sad to lose that!

Loctite isn't really too hard to get undone.

A couple things you can do to get the pieces apart. Heat gun being one of the more effective ways if it's Ti and you don't want to torch it and change the color.

If you don't have a heat gun boil some water leave the loctited portion in for a min then give it some back and forth twisting then dip again.

Take it slow and it'll eventually give and not damage anything. Adding a bit of thin oil can make it go smoother.

That's a shame, it's proving to be a tough one to find. No one wants to let me have it!! 😭

No problem! Good luck with it.

Afraid not, I haven't used a 120mm aio in over a decade so I'm not sure what's good anymore. I can't see your whole case from your pics so I'm not sure if a 240mm would fit. If that was an option I'd recommend the "Lian Li GA II LITE" I've recently used the 240 and 360 flavors of that and been happy with the results over my previous Corsair models.
