K3 shot of some weldments · 03:44 PM

I take a lot of product and "work" shots. I am loving the K3 after using the K7 and K5. This lens is one of my favorite still life lens for sure for clarity and color. planning on posting more photos and reading up on more tips to improve. These are some parts I welded up last week for one of my products.

Good one. Impressively technical, yet attractive.
Thanks for sharing.

Hope there's some stress-relief planned for those components. Look at those colours!
What are they for?

Regards

Thanks guys, they are an offset bearing housing for a steering connection. If you know what an inner tie rod end is, these replicate the same function using a larger bearing. I will try to post up more pics of recent items, good motivation for me.
