The title says it all... "I would like to pay my condolences to the capco body that sacrificed it's life" As some of you know i bought the Kanotex globe with the broken base. I will post some pictures of it now that i have patched it up. First pictures is a before shot.  Second and third pictures are after i cut up a capco body i had gotten from the great people at Vic's place and epoxy it on. Next picture is after a little paint. I added the epoxy i used to do the job. This is after it done and lenses installed. Now... it's home with it's brother! IP: Logged |

I'm curious as to how he's managed to spare these 5 globes from the certain death countless other globes have suffered in his posession? Getting soft in his old age or just waiting for the right moment? Ken  IP: Logged |

Great job JJ. Wes I think you may be right, he has transfered the jix to bodies, hopefully just CAPCO bodies. Don't let him touch any glass bodies, the jinx has been transfered. Richard IP: Logged |

What happens if the epoxy fails and the body ripple separates from the capco base and tips over?? Lens gets broken?? Lets hope not!!! IP: Logged |
