So me and my bro in law decided to get handy today and build a mech.
We took a Mokor (Afrikaans for hit hard) axe handle and converted it to a beaut of a mech! Still not finished, need to patina the copper battery sleeve, polish the wood etc. Will upload the finished pics later.
So it's a very basic mech mod in wood. Uses an 18490 battery. Its a wood mod Bartho maade with a Copper battery sleeve with a stainless end cap I made with a springloaded insert for the negative side. At the top we pressed a aluminium spacer into the wood. Drilled a 6.5mm hole in the spacer and tapped the 7x0.5 thread. Got a teflon spacer with a screw inside turned into the 6.5mm hole for the positive pin. Drilled a hole on the side going into the aluminium spacer and screwed in a springloaded copper plate to be used as the switch. When the small copper plate touches the sleeve it activates.
Very primitive at the moment but this is our First try and the next one will be better.
Oh the name is that of the axe handle (Mokor) and its made by BarHein which is my bro in law (Bartho) and me (Heinrich)
Here's a couple of pics so far with a Trident on.
Figuring out the switch
Thats an 0.4Ohms Duel nano dragon coil
Trident sits nicely on the Mokor
Bartho testing the Mokor
IS WORKING!!!
Switch it fastened and you can see the top needs to be leveled out a bit
Nice clean retro look
Switch in safe mode
