MMM2026 Finished builds

[Heavens Eagle]

Post your finished builds here. I have a package to send to one of the folks that finishes their build in time. I will post some photos once I have assembled what I have in mind.
Here is my build finished.

Today is March 20. There are eleven days left to the end of the month.

Thanks for keeping MMM running Paul. Great finish, sorry I fell out this year but let's see who else brings it across the finish line.

I have a goodie pack for one of them. So far Chris is the only one that is in the running. If there are more I will put the names in a bucket and draw a name during our next video meet.

Chris isn't the only one running, I have one going too and I'm getting close myself.

Paul, outstanding job on that, it's amazing to me that you got such an incredible masterpiece done in so short a time!

Here are the CA pallets I have made. If you want one, or have one and want one of the "fancy" ones in addition to one you might already have, get busy!

Whats a CA pallet Paul ?

You place a drop or two of your superglue on it and use an applicator to dip into that drop to place small precise amounts of superglue (CA cyanoacrylate) where you want it.
I am calling it a pallet kind of like a paint pallet. I know Bob and Saúl have each been using the ones I gave them. The sapphire crystals are fairly inert and thus the CA doesn't set up on it, but will sit there in a puddle until it does set up.
Then as it is a really hard and flat surface, it is easy to take a razor blade and scrape it off perfectly clean. I have one at work that I use to mix small amounts of epoxy to attach crystals to some watches. Then once the epoxy sets up I scrape it off.

Dspiae makes this platform to do the same thing.

Ah thanks for that, i have some small alloy dishes for paint mixing i use and wash them out with nail varnish remover.
