Excellent work, love the wood.

Thanks piper1, I think English Burr Elm is my favourite. It positively sparkles in bright light.

After giving a lot of thought to Ronaldo`s advice regarding seeing things within the grain of wood, I decided to check some other offcut pieces knocking about in my man cave.

Here is the first:-




Hmm, not sure if there is a rabbit or maybe a mouse there.




















I think you can see a monkey or maybe a gorilla ???
















Then the third one hit me and I couldn't believe it. You may have to look very hard but I swear I can see the QE2 or is it the Taj Mahal?

love the top two they are lovely pieces of wood I would sand them and see if they mature I think they might

As far as i can remember ..(maybe someone can verify).. 18350 batteries fit inside a CR123 holder which is a 16340, you might want to investigate...lol

If you have a look around im pretty sure you can get them with different outer diamentions and with or without wires, like i said above...investigate ...lol.. but im more than sure they fit from what i recal.. i have a couple of old single battery chargers for 16340's and 18350's fit in those also, .. pic below is 18350 flat top in the said charger.... Aw Imr button tops also fit ,

Neil, when is the next mod coming up ? looking forward to seeing it, it's making me jealous in a miss making them kinda way

My next one will hopefully be even smaller Jase. I did a trade with goneforagasper so I now have a Naturevape Mini. What a dear little thing it is, so I want to try and make a stealthy mod, (if there is such a thing in wood) that will take the recessed NV Mini with an 18350..............I am making my way up to a larger wooden mod with an SX350 board but just gaining a bit of experience first.

Sounds like a good one m8, really looking forward to your next one as they get more interesting the more you make one, not like me i make pretty much same old bland looking ones so seeing something not the norm is exciting

I had a look on "Wiki" for battery dimensions and there seems to be only 1mm difference in length, so with the sprung ends, I cant see there being too much of a problem

Just incase you didnt know and save you having to look up diamentions... the size of the battery is in its number... 18350 is 18mm in diameter and 35mm in length.... and thanks to Ronaldo the 0 means its round ....lol...

Thanks for that, although I was aware of the above, it was the CR123 that had me stumped.
