I'm on the list and hope that there's enough interest to make this worth Aurich's time. It looks fantastic!

Quoted from Aurich:

Cool, thanks. I have several reasons for not showing things in progress, but definitely part of them is that shit just takes a while. You can see in this hammer thread, it's already 3 weeks old, and I don't have much to show since the first post. And yet I've put a bunch of time into it.
Delays happen. Or, like in this one, I come up with a better idea half way through it and just scrap hours and hours of art to start clean.
I know some people dig being in on the process, and following a project for a year etc. I prefer to just do it until it's done and then do a reveal. It's the Stern model vs the boutique one I guess.

Yeah, just don't go all JPOP on us Aurich! I'm kidding, of course. Take your time...this is going to be one sweet mod!

Here's the Refinery mod...

Quoted from Aurich:

Hard to tell from that pic, but did you have to drill a hole in the back of your hammer to route the wire?

This came pre-installed on my Refinery edition, so I'm not sure how Gio installed it. I'm pretty sure he must have had to drill the hole though.

Came home for lunch and the mailman was delivering my hammer. I opened it up to check it out and...WOW!!! This thing looks amazing! I knew it was going to be impressive but this has exceeded my expectations. Great job Aurich. Thanks for your hard work on this!

Quoted from Aurich:

Sweet, I was hoping I got them to the post office in time for next day for local folks. What number did you get?

Back at work now...but I believe it was #26. Don't tell my boss I'm checking Pinside!

Quoted from Aurich:

Wow, sled dog delivered too?! Glad you're enjoying it.
Does anyone have a cliffy on their magnet and the captive ball? Someone thought they were getting some bouncebacks up into the hammer, and I suspect it's the cliffy + captive ball causing air balls, I've heard of others having this problem.
Some people took the captive ball off. Personally I'd remove the cliffy, I don't think it's necessary myself.

I had the cliffy around my magnet and was getting tons of airballs off of the captive ball. I removed the cliffy and no more airballs.

Quoted from Cliffy:

sorry it didn't help anyone I try hard to make only useful protection. I'm leaving it on my own game since it only airballs into the captive block and would rather keep the wood around the mag protected. But I can see others not liking the effect on gameplay. If you all do remove it please soften the adhesive with a citrus solvent. slinking out of here...

No need to slink, Cliffy I currently have, and have had, more cliffy protectors on my machines than I can count. I love them and the protector for the Metallica hammer magnet is the only one I've ever had an issue with. Thanks for the tip about the citrus solvent, I'll remember that in the future. I used a hair dryer this time to heat the protector and was able to get it removed without any damage.
