That's great work. I'm sure people will want to buy 'em if you want to make 'em. How long does it take to make a set?

well, the set that is already spoken for ;) took about 4 hrs start to finish (machining) plus color finish. I might be able to turn out 4 every 2hrs with my set up but that may be pushing it. These would be some pricey nuts. :D

Matt- about 4hrs.....but I think he was slackin'....right BC? Something about bad files and manuals or somethin'....hey, wait what about my parts...umm I have issues......need plates
Seriously BC, those are way cool. Remember to polish off the anodizing later....

Those look great, I love the lockout. I'm sure the scale guys would snap these up!

Those look KILLER!!
I am going to have to get a set myself. Those wheels don't look half bad either, we will have to get you a set of our new tires to complete the look.
I know Matt H. We have to get you a set to review as well. :)

Matt H,
I had them colored but am not happy with how they turned out. I was thinking of stripping them and re-coloring them black. Let me know what you think.

The look dialed. The red came out a little weird, but the color is very much secondary to the overall cool design and details.

Matt,
I stripped and re-colored your wheel nuts, can't have blotchy parts in a major publication. ;)
