Adversarious1 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Looks great, Shen. I need to do the same with my Arthas. Looking a little worse for the wear. shen_long86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthling789 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Looks good Shen! I polished up all my Copper and Brass mechs before putting them away... it's amazing how fast they oxidize even when you haven't touched them in months, lol. I like a "little" patina, especially on Brass, but man, the Copper starts looking rough if you don't keep it shiny shen_long86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just used the same stuff the guy at the shop used, had to put some elbow grease into it. I dont mine a lil patina either but after a while it starts to irk me....lolSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took an old RDA base that couldn't be repaired and welded a broken 1/4" hex wrench to the RDA base where the posts used to be. The 510 threads were still good. He would insert the RDA/hex wrench contraption into a drill chuck, screw a mod onto the old RDA base and let the drill do the work for him. Sadly the shop closed down. Might talk my brother into doing something similar for me if I ever come across an RDA base that can't be repaired. shen_long86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
