I’ve been pretty exclusive with the Hanimar 55mm F 1.7 mounted to the old Sony NEX-3 – the colors it renders are very vivid and nostalgic – but I still do the quick & dirty shots with the PowerShot A710is.

  1. Wow, those look fantastic. Just tried casting some rubber feet for my Royal KMM this weekend. I had some feet that were not too deformed and rock hard. Did a cast from one of those. My question is how hard/soft were the feet originally. I cast them with a polyurethane rubber that is shore A60. Not sure if those will be too soft. They seem like they are firm enough. Full cure is 7 days so will see how they are then.
    Thanks – Brian

  2. Good looking feets. When they are ready I’ll be getting some.
    Next up some for the 3 versions of the H3k?

  3. Fashion feet — the new fantastic fad for Franklins, Fords, and Foxes!
