My CNC Mill is getting delivered on monday (4 axis!!!). If I can manage to get that sucker up to my second floor walk-up, then you’d best be holding on to your hats, ladies.

😆

Excellent work.

Which mill are you getting?

I love the guys who post questions (veiled as brainstorming) on how to do something, then when they get a few answers not to their satisfaction they dismiss everyone for not being creative.

It’s like me asking someone for a copy of their term paper to copy and then admonishing them for being lazy when they don’t provide it.

synopsys doesn’t represent TAG, he just shits on a lot of posts, it’s what he does….

We appreciate new ideas & new directions. I think most if not all of us realize that our hobby is at a fantastic place. Technology and ingenuity are enabling advances in accuracy and performance. Although the AF rifle platform may…Read more

When I use Chrome (older version, new one seems to work) it would say copied but nothing was in the clipboard. I just manually copied it from the box after it flickered (CTRL + C).

Think how it would be here if they quit shipping gun parts, accessories or ammo here in the US. Surely they…Read more

I figured it was going this way when the Government banned mail order sales of Airguns a couple of years ago.

I actually hate the stock color, was supposed to be OD Green…. One day I’ll respray it.

No one else has a chance in these threads once tofu and rob start posting…. 😀

Audrius Regulator (100 shots at just under 20 fpe)
Adjustable Cheek piece
Quick release Picatinny rail for PS-22 and IR Illuminator

I’d seen the 150 degree temp, my concern was due to the small size of my safe the rod would only be an inch or two from the back end of the stocks. I guess I’ll make a plinth for the guns to…Read more

quote DeutschKSK:10 round clip limit there too? I don’t feel alone now.. 10 round limit here too in the shitty state of Mass! yay! I hate this state with a passion.

Saw said his M4 is a .22 – There is no 10 round limit on .22LR magazines. Nor any other caliber if you have an LTC. I assume you have an FID only?

Oiless Air Compressor – 89db
Shoebox Compressor – 73db

AA410 Xtra at 20fpe – 103db
50 fpe shrouded Talon – 97db

I checked wikipedia, Tandy was bought by Carephone warehouse in 99.

Does Tandy still exist? They were the same as the Radioshacks in the US (same parent company or something), but last I knew weren’t doing to well in the UK.

Maplins is much better anyway, but Tandy should have the…Read more

I place the meter 1m and off to the side 90 degree’s to the barrel when measuring, might be a factor if you put that one closer or more infront of the gun?

All decibel meter’s? I’m sure there are pro quality db meter’s that can record very accuratly the spl of both airguns and firearms.

But since this post was originally about an inexpensive meter from Radioshack I will repeat what I said after some testing.

I read them, but figured I may as well try it anyway…decibel meter for iphone – Here is a screenshot of it from my phone

Nearly any relatively loud noise (anything above 80db measured on the radioshack meter for example) will pin it at 105.6db and thats the highest it will read.

Maybe android app’s are…Read more

I do like the look of that one.

I’ve been on the fence about a daystate for ages. Going to England later in the year so I may get one then and bring it back with me. Used prices over there seem much more favorable than I’ve seen on the classifieds here.

You know you can just get 1″ fender washer’s and use some pipe or spring’s as spacer’s for the washers in the empty frame space to quieten down a Talon SS right?

Column isnt as stiff so it vibrates like crazy for bigger cut’s.

LOL

The stock mount’s suck (scope is marginally better). I dont throw much away, but they went in the trash.

I have a centerpoint and leapers mounts(from roachcreek – thanks) on mine which seems a good match.

Definitly One of my more…Read more

Sorry to hear you might be out of business (hopefully its only a short while)

Could even combine it with a bipod mount or something…. Like this – but with an extra hole drilled and…Read more

The combined height of spacer and mount –

The QR rings are 9.35mm as measured from top of rail to bottom of scope.

Plus spacer height, 3/4″ spacer is 19.05mm

9.35+19.05 = 28.4mm

To get my measurements from the PS-22 I measured the “exit” lens cap and divided it by two

43.43/2 = 21.715mm

Then measured from the base to the…Read more

If I shoot at any distance less than that then the error caused by my scope/ bore being offset issue is going to be somewhere between the offset and zero (at 20 yards it will be half the error).

So if my scope is off 1/8″ (probably way more than it really is) Were talking about 1/16″ of an inch at 20 yards.

I’m…Read more

Home Depot/Lowes sell the grease in tube’s (designed to go in a grease gun) or Plastic squeezy bottles. Bottle is easier to use. ACE or True Value will likely have it too.

I have a particulate filter/Water trap attached to my compressor and…Read more

Like those silly AR “pistols” that still have a large protusion but no stock because they need a buffer tube.

I fill to 3000psi.

I could adjust the regulator for a higher pressure to get fewer higher powered shot’s – I think people who do this get around 65 shots at 30 fpe with the 410extra. Not sure if mine would do that.

The pot contains two chambers – one for the spring and one is supposed to meter air.…Read more

I totally forgot about that wallet in Pulp Fiction until I saw the picture… How about a picture of the watch??

Right after he took it out of the hiding place…

There is obviously an error… the black one SHOULD be longer… or so I’ve been told.

Do you want to win a schoolyard fight or have people realize that your argument is valid?

Just wondering because doing the former is a surefire way to lose people on the latter.

I didnt go down as far as I could because I wanted a large margin of safety so I didnt drill into the valve seat.

And with the valve spring retainer installed you can see how the air can now bypass it.

Dollar –

I just filled my 410 again and checked the temperature after it had ran for about 24 minutes without stopping – cylinder’s were much hotter than last time, but my non contact thermometer still only read about 80 degree’s (shiny aluminum might be the problem there)… My hand…Read more

Video showing how fast the gauge moves. Looks a little odd because I had to use after effects to stabilize the image.

And video with both compressor’s running for the first half and then just the shoebox to compare noise.

Dollar hunt – those are flats for a wrench. Mine ran for 15 minutes, then was shut off while I fixed the leak on gun for about 5 or 6 minutes (guessing) and then turned back on for 17 minutes or so and was in a cool…Read more

Good buy on that $40 compressor.

Just a few questions, if you don’t mind.
What was your Target fill pressure and was It easy to determine when to cut it off?
Would it be easy to cut it off at a lower fill pressure?

Thanks,
Edmund

I was filling to 3000psi (I should have mentioned that in original post)

Thanks for the link JFK. Still hoping to find something at least 24″.
