The Pineapple Body

Sometime around mid/2006 while I had some spare time, I spent it drawing a 2x123 E-series compatible body inspired by this unique piece:


I've shown the results to some friends and they liked it, so I posted about it in the CPF, the crowd spoke and I made it happen.

Here is the evolution of the project:

The Pineapple


The first CAD renderings

Machining the first prototype

The first prototypes
at this point I asked about which one to make, the votes were favorable to the second prototype, which was also my choice.


As a plus I offered to add tritium slots to the body, but after making the prototypes I discovered that the tritium slots left thin walls at the sides thus making that part of the body fragile, I apologized and that feature was removed from the final production units.


This is the first finished prototype

And these are the first annodized ones

This last image shows all the bare flavors offered: Brass, Titanium and Aluminium

The production of the anodized units finished succesfully
