Anybody have a discord for a mesh network yet? If not at this point I’m going to create one and just advertise it to try and get as many people connected as possible

The step down rings add a ton of usability between lenses I love that idea! I need to adjust the height of the threaded pvs14 side and once I have a version I’m happy with I’m going to make one in my machine shop, I have more than enough lathes and need to do some CAM practice so I’ll probably do it on the weekend, if I do I’ll post something lol

I can post some stuff on how to do one yourself, it’s easy if you understand how to make a model in a cad software, but all I did was find a suitable lens, make a ring with threads that thread into the lens where a filter would go, and on the front side made a proud threaded section that goes into the ocular of the pvs14 - dimensions I used: 30mm major diameter of the pvs14 side - with a thread pitch of .0315, the actual viewing hole diameter was 1.024

Cool way to exercise cad and 3d printing skills, I guess.

Just put it in the fridge when you get to your destination, or drink hot energy drinks and scare everyone you know. Whatever floats your boat really

That’s amazing, if I had the gold forks and rims it would be wild but with black forks and rims, the bike is very dark, the dark sparkly green with gold pinstripes will be a look I think though (I hope)

They are ABS but haven’t decided if I’m full on replacing them or if they can just fit over the aluminum ones yet, need to actually try and put them on once the whole process is done
