MACHINE Putters Picture Thread

[weaver93]

Hey Guys,

 

I hope everyone is having a great week :) I wanted to share these pics of this MACHINE Prototype-ART Putter that was just completed :) This is Prototype #1 of our new MACHINE 4.0 Models :) This MACHINE Features a Prototype M2A Converter Head with a Stainless Cavity Medallion, a Fat Back Nibble Back Flange and a Twisted Long Neck in 303 Stainless :)

 

The Head, Neck and Flange have all been given a Custom Torch Finish :)

 

The Bumpers have been melted for a softer look and the Topline has had a GIFF Cut Milled into it :)

 

More details to follow soon on this new model :)

 

Enjoy the pics :)

Not sure how to properly emphasize this, but friggin' sweet...

 

+1. I usually zip through the pics pretty quick but i had to stop and stare at this beauty. So simple, yet still amazing.

You always miss the good stuff on the road. LOL

The grip is pretty cool In the years I have been with MACHINE I have never seen one like this

When I talked to Dave about the grip, he said it is a 1 of 5 prototype with the old M-Star logo

I'll have her in hand today and will take some more pics Actually typing this on my laptop, sitting by the front door waiting for Santa in the Big Brown Truck to Arrive. LOL

I enjoy looking at artwork as much as anyone, while the head of this putter is very nice the neck is the worst example of a twisty I have ever seen
you can clearly see from address it is not square to the top line. I am a fan of Dave's work but this is not his best.

[attachment=702337:MP_M2A_PT_4pt0_CRH_12ad.jpg]

[choeppner]

That's due to the way I need my necks. I need something that when at address it is not perfectly square. I have a....Let's just say very unique stroke. LOL I need to have something that will give me slightly different look to compensate for it. It's also been bent to a 1/2 offset from a full and then the neck was bent again to get to the toe hang I wanted

I know it's not the "Normal" Look and not perfectly square, it's just what works best for me. LOL

That would be about 2 clicks for windage?

[choeppner]

Close. LOL I can't setup square. Just doesn't look right to me. LOL LOL LOL

[weaver93]

Snipers!!! What do you do with them!

I don't think Dave bends anything he doesn't mean to!

I saw the bend to the center line. How close is it to face balanced?

[icreate]

Very nice putters lately (including mine). Really like that stocking stuffer of yours Chris! And that's one cool grip to go along with that nice stick. Here's to wishing everything an early Merry Christmas! Stay strong Machine Heads! Here comes 2011!

Hey Guys,

 

I hope everyone had a Safe and Fun Christmas :) Sorry for the delay in posting. Went to go visit the in-laws and got snowed in for a couple of days :( That was interesting to say the least. LOL

 

I wanted to share this picture with you of a Custom MACHINE M1A Fixer that a Husband on here ordered for his Wife :)

 

This is one of our new 4.0 MACHINE M1A Fixers milled from 303 Stainless with an Alloy Cavity Medallion :) The neck is the Standard Length 303 Stainless Plumber Neck.

 

As you can tell....The Customer wanted ALOT of stampings showing his wife how much he cares for her :)

 

This MACHINE will be finished in a Custom Torch Finish :)

 

More pics as this MACHINE Progresses :)

 

Enjoy the Pics :)

That is something I would absolutely love to put in the bag at some point...

 

How about a right-handed version...
