Just finished building this one a few days ago. It has already left to it´s owner in Finland.

Specs are; 1mm Titanium shell, COB tube lugs, COB 2.3mm hoops, Dunnett strainer.

Nice! How much for one of those puppies.
Next time you make one, could you post a few sound clips?

Love it! What is that finish a sponged finish or some sort wierd aging technique?

Thanks for the kind remarks.

The finish is in fact "no finish at all". To be exact it´s the raw titanium sanded with 1200 grit water paper. No coating. I´m a hobbyist builder but I have built a few of these and more are in the making due to requests.

Here´s one more; also 1mm Titanium shell with vintage Premier lugs, 6.5x14:

I like that it has almost a faux finish type of look.
