Raw Ti bead with the Alpha ICE Titanium and an Electroless Nickel plated bead to match the EN on the Alpha Carbon.

I was \u003cem\u003einspired\u003c\/em\u003e by my favorite flashlight maker, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/photonfanatic.com\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFred Pilon over at Photon Fanatic\u003c\/a\u003e. His work is INSANE. The most beautiful lights I've ever seen without question, and also the namesake of the bead. What, you didn't think I was some sort of creative genius did you? The Photon Bead is my homage to Fred's vision and I've started making this bead design with his blessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1356\/1883\/files\/10_24489a76-8b27-4074-850c-b28bc26bd9ea.jpg?v=1487161467\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text\"\u003eI also wanted to take advantage of my Haas ST10-Y's milling capabilities. The 30 grooves are cut by side-milling with a 3\/32\" 6 flute carbide keyseat cutter from Harvey Tool. This process is fairly slow and takes a significant amount of time to machine each bead. It's \u003cstrong\u003ethe\u003c\/strong\u003e longest run-time part that I make on the lathe.
