there is defiantly something to be said to making it with your own hands have you tried grinding down the spot welds the filling them with some body filler so you do not c them
i wish i was good/patient enough to make something that engineered and that good looking. mine look like crap and after they are painted you can still see the spotwelds which hold in the baffles but what the hell least i try to do it myself.
Think i paid about £16 for the last (32mm ballend) cutter.
Never much more than that.
The problems the collets. For somthing that big i have to make a holder. Although the collets are only around £5-6 bellow 25mm (1″ to you metric denialists)
I love e,Bay. 😀
Blod – how much does one of those cutter’s cost?
Blob,
There are better lubricants then your man juice 😯 Lube first then the fountain of love. Not the other way around 😛
that thing looks great!
I fuck up all the time. Even with “proper” tools.
It half the fun 😕
But i try n only do it once.
Nice work…… wish I had the tools to make one
Another bad case of envy, pretty soon I’ll have to buy me something cool.
painted and on the SS
That looks great.
I have CNC and mine still took a long time…. slow feed rates and constant watching = mind numbingly boring. I almost wished I was at least spinning the handles – ALMOST….
and for your ? sam it is not as hard as it is time consuming the stock had to be turned from 1.75″ to a little over an 1″ on one side it took a long time just to get it down to that size
it’s a china Central Machine 9×20 and the mill i have is the central machine 2 hp mill/drill combo sure would be nice to have that cnc machine though program and sit back

i thought about it but my rifle is by no means a show gun im gonna see how it works before i go any farther with it. if it works well i will probably do just that incase i get pulled over and the police see it if they see spotwelds and an endcap it is a definite giveaway. i dont even know if its illegal to have it on there or not. with all the ppl who make them and sell them on the net and all the rifles that are sold with them i cant see it being illegal.
