Very very nice pictures everybody!
I hate to do it, but I have to cast my vote for the Spy (otherwise a superb concept). Reminds me of several different smoking accessories, one of which being a lighter. Just doesn't fit into my concept of an asthetically pleasing flashlight I suppose.
They are identical. In fact the pics Mac took were of a production light . . . your light 0202.
Nice pics!
I have noticed something though. These pics give a different rendering of the SPY 007 than the first pics that have been released so far.
I looks like the prototype has a more "industrial" look, with "sharper" and more shiny look. In comparison, in these pictures the SPY looks like it has been buffed with scotchbrite or something. Not bead blaster though, but more satin/mate, less sharp. Less reflective. Is doesn't seem to have the same machining paterns that the tools and grinders leave like on the proto pictures.

Dave is way to busy boxing and getting things all ready for the next batch in record setting new times. :thumbsup: So we dare not interrupt him to say the least. Although I thinking he must have literally hundreds of plastic? parts from testing sw on his machine and some of those might make nice pacifiers for us who are having un-relentless urges to caress one. :naughty:
...
I do not have any plastic parts or I would send you one. In fact I never cut a wax one either (I got STL parts made for Matt). I have such powerful CAM simulation that I just don't need to cut wax any more. I did cut wax on the first 005 but the first 007 proto was titanium. It is really more about figuring out tools types, feeds and speeds in Ti than it is worring about bad tool paths.
Cheers
Dave
:drunk: I got mine. Both the light and the pixie dust are unbelievable.
Words alone cannot describe the awesomeness of this creation. It leaves me speechless. All I can do is this :rock: and this :bow: !!
