    @ZuePhok : I'll make a video. But the field strip (for cleaning) is very quick. The 1911 is a very old design (over 100 years) old, so it is slower than my other .45 ACP, but we're still talking 15-20 seconds or so (for disassembly, for reassembly, probably add 5 more seconds). My FNX-45 Tactical on the other hand is so quick that it takes longer to remove the barrel thread cap/protector than it does to field strip the pistol for cleaning.

    :mrgreen:

    A more accurate description would be a 'tool'. :)

    Just happens that the tool is also a lot of fun. :mrgreen:

    More 'toys' from Xiaomi. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1451545841.608507.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk1451545867.276453.jpg

    Now I can monitor the air quality in my home. Kinda cool when you can update the firmware of your air purifier.

    Bought a whole bunch of stuff along with a friend from Taobao and this was one of the item. Then it was shipped by a shipping forwarder based in China. LOL. They even shipped things separately so we didn't get taxed with GST.

    Wow, another taobao fan. If only the currency exchange is better... I find it quite hard to find something I want, because there's too many to choose from! :haha:

    Not exactly building a new one, I already have the "pink" server for a long time, just moving the whole RAID 5 array from my windows PC (it sits inside a linux VM) to this machine.

    Also this motherboard has 12 (!!) SATA ports so I don't need to worry about running out of SATA ports for all my "pink" HDDs. :haha:

    I still need to get a power supply for it, want cheap want good want many SATA power port, hard to find :lol:

    Not really a fan, I only buy there when I really couldn't find the stuff I want here, and yes unfortunately the exchange rate is shit now :( From my experience shipping is really fast and safe if you use the official forwarder, this is also part of the reason why I choose taobao rather than buying from other places online.

    Been thinking of doing the same too but with a much more lightweight SOC like the banana pi m2 since all I need it to do is host plex server, torrent and run as a file server.

    I have an angled grip at the front and am using a 30 round polymer translucent magazine.

    Upcoming additions is a light and a red dot sight.

    Should be loads of fun!
