Title: [FS] Sand Cast Zinc MX Cap
Post by: nubbinator on Wed, 31 July 2013, 13:58:24

I'm putting my second sand cast prototype cap for sale so that I can afford to buy more zinc to experiment with.  I plan on trying to make more zinc and zinc alloy caps.  It works perfectly and sits straight, but a little tall.  That's something you can easily fix if it bothers you.  It's my second sand cast prototype and the first truly usable one.  Asking $30 + shipping for it and with that you get some little extras like with all my other sales.  If there are multiple inquiries, I prefer it go to the person who will use the cap and not a collector or someone who might try and sell for a profit in the future.

I was going to take it, but your project would be such a cooler use for it.  :)  I hope you get it.

Lol, in the exact same boat here.  I'll defer to Bunny on this one.

And it has been sold.  It will soon be making its way across the Atlantic.
