needmoregolf Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) So, I've been on a bit of a copper craze lately, and while I'm not trying to buy everything in sight that has copper, it definitely piques my interest whenever I see something. I think my goal is to have a nice spare bag filled with all things copper at some point, but as the adage goes - haste makes waste - and seeing that there are now a lot more copper options for refinishing (a la TSG's sweet new refinishing service), I think I'll take my time to find the right pieces and finish for the makeover. In the meantime, I do have a project that has started all the copper hype for me, and wanted to share. Thought this might be a nice place for all us TSG members who share an interest in this lovely finish to share their goodies as well. So, without further ado, here's my current project (pre-build)...Tourstage MR23 CB's | TT Monaco X -- in COPPER!! I'll update w/ new pics once these beauties get built. I did a search and found individual threads on copper projects people had shared but nothing that collated them all for us to view and enjoy. Hopefully you guys will jump in with me and share your prizes as well!! ;) Edited September 5, 2014 by needmoregolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Still up in the air with those buddy, not even sure if I will keep them, pretty to look at but not much fun to use for my art af hackerness....If that is a word ;) They would look outrageous in copper or baron red fill though In baron with black KBS.... if darth vader had golf clubs those would be it.

Mob Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I think the new Epon Personal 2.0 would look spectacular in copper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I have a bunch of Epon Coppers. My favorite set is my AF301's. I head down into the dungeon every month or so just to wipe my oily sweaty hands on them in an effort to get them to darken, patina. I'll snap a couple of pics off but the camera just can't do a copper finish justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needmoregolf Posted September 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I think the new Epon Personal 2.0 would look spectacular in copper I agree!

1dirtypanda Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I wondered if anyone else was going to put Monacos in a copper head! Chiromikey I have a set of 302s with Monaco's X flex SS1x as well. I'll have to find pics and post them. Most will be shocked that they're my backups to my Personals. After my season is done i think I'll have to break them out again and get them dialed in.Where'd you get those ferrules???!
