    What did you make today?

    Hello y'all,
    As a counter part to the 3D printed thread:

    Like the title says, what did you make today?

      It was Saturday, but I made some alterations to my single shot PGP.

        I assembled and glued up a "14 Dye UL Black/Silver acid washed barrel for a Phantom (2nd one) does that count as "make". It is pretty easy now I have my jig built to assemble glued barrels straight.

          Like the shape of the stock. Did you make the lever,and would like to see a picture of your lower mount plate and pivot, if it's not too top secret? Are mounting a Sheridan in it?

        Thumbscrew setup for my pump build... took a P-series bolt and installed two CCI 10-32 threadserts where the pump arm goes, then threaded some 3/16" brass rod and added a knurled thumbnut on one end, with the other end turned down a bit to fit the pump arm.

          Really like the brass contrast to the black. Do use the knob to unscrew the brass rod when you want to remove your pump arm?

          That's the plan... I had a PPS bolt in there but wanted to use a Sheridan bolt instead.

          It's a kevlar string for high abrasion resistance ...
          I got further than I thought on it today, but I may not have much time in the next few weeks, so I'll probably start a build thread somewhere

        Pirate stock and stick feed for my PMI Pursuit. I might put the stock on a diet - it's pretty chunky still - but for my first from-scratch stock it turned out decent.

        Hockey tape grip or no? Can't decide.

          I was tired of messing up threads in the 3 jaws and tired of swapping to the collet holder, so made some slotted sleeves ... But first I needed a holder for my skinny slotting saw 😅

              I only own 1.5 acres, and about one acre is heavily overgrown. This is after picking away at it for the last 3 of so years. It's my woodsball/ mini mountain bike course. It's basically un-useable during the mud seasons. I need to get truckloads of stone to start firming up the pathways so they don't get so bad. It's good enough for the boys.

            Tried to make copper Sheridan grips ... Next one might have the hole at the right place 😅

              That's what I have on hand right now, go a hold of some good casting aluminum so that might be next.
              The texture is rough, but got a charm 😁
              The core plug I use for the hole seared off and moved a bit, I need to use a different sand for the cores ... Say tuned 😜

            I started assembling another Mag-Ion hybrid. I need to make some detent covers and mount them, fill the eye holes in, and paint the breech - but it shoots.

            Got some cosmetic mods planned for the rail.
