Some comments
Hello,
I am puzzled about the color ( hue ) variation Tony is discussing.
I am assuming he is ( or was ) expecting the color we see in his avatar.
Of course as I said before we the readers are looking at the rendition of our computers and monitors.
We are not seeing the exact hue that Tony is seeing in person.
I went to post #599 and observed the color differences I see between pic #2 ( center of top line ) and pic #3 ( right of top line ).
I understand that those two pictures were taken with the same finish showing the plastic exhaust tubes.
Of course the observed color depends on the content of the source of illumination and to some degree on the illumination level being reflected.
We as readers would have to be beside Tony in his shop to make any judgment so we can only respect Tony's opinion and reports in his postings.
Post #599 is sure interesting to observe.
