Let's try to finish this GB, look at the feedback from people, and see if the product is good enough before we go full FJEII.

:)

im ready to order my fjeII right now

But don't you already have an FJELL??

Raw cut not finished yet. We will try both sandblasting and mirror polish for the brass plate and go with what works best.

brass plate finish will match the brass weight finish, correct?

Those parts are very different and requires different methods to look good. The color will be close but the finish might look a little bit different.

Stoked for either sir, at the end of the day it's a plate so will be near impossible to polish once built, whatever finish you choose it'll tarnish and patina beautifully right away and be all the better for it

Looks great LeandreN :thumb:
I agree with you on the deeper cutout for the MekanisK logo on the weight.
I do have one question though, will there be any 'branding' on the outside of the case?

Any updates on when the GB will move to the manufacturing stage?

It's been over a week since invoices are due and I am curious to know what the timeline is looking like since you received the manufacturing sample.

The pictures are from the factory. As stated in the mail, I will approve the manufacturing as soon as I get this sample next week.

Oof, that looks great. Is this the first black/dark, dark gray one? I don't recall seeing another one this color yet.
