Introducing the Micromag 2009

A gap all the way around would look like butt .

How about continuing the gap from the body and ending midway at the bottom of the block with a radius? I'm not quite sure how that would look though. Good luck at figuring out this perplexing quandry.

How quick people forget about the MASSIVE gap under the innovative rotating breech. Lets all focus on the miniscule "gap" that can easily be filled in with Ultra Black once we receive it I, for one, would be more than pleased to have that show up at my door.

I discussed extending the bevel with Russell yesteday, and it solves one "probem" just to create another with what would appear to be a gap between the batt box and the front block... What look like a gap is just a very slight bevel. If there was no bevel on the non-E bodies it would literally be a flat sharp (sharp) edge which would be really bad... On Dust Black bodies I doubt that you will even see it - with polished bodies it may look like a bit of a shadow at best. I did ask Russell to try a front block with a reveal that looks more like this one, but we'll have to see how it looks. The difference between what you see in the photos and in person can be very different...

This idea would only work if you could slide the front into place and I have NO idea how hard things are to machine.

But what about two "fangs" sticking backwards to fill in the beveled area.

I can imagine they would be incredibly fragile but would fill in the "gap" and make people happy. Again, I have no idea how hard this idea would be to machine.

Its not a gap , its a radius meeting a flat edge .

The top of the battery pack is still covered .

[Mindflux]

Its not a gap

[TheePsycho]

Personally I'm okay with the gap.

You know, there is an easier solution to this: Custom battery tops, cut to match the emicro frontblock and bevel, etc....

Wounder how many bottles of Advil PTP has used during this project (see the bottle in the back ground)

[ZoomZ@PTP]

Lol , there are 2 left , haha

now thats a good idea, i would pay a bit more for this option. if it opens up more design ideas

Sounds like a good job for Luke when his hand gets better ~
