It wasn’t built like this Sonix is - it’s been sold and resold and modded as it’s traded hands. There isn’t a specific thread tracking it.

[MountainDewFKR]

Ah ok, thanks.
I thought there was a build tracker or something

Got the body cut up, and had to smooth the back of the bolt out so that brings me to 3.
I didn't do the window around the hammer because the test spider body I had laying around ended up in the scrap ... Didn't want to take the risk to scrap this one too 😅

This is before deburring and smoothing things out.

[lhamilton1807]

Wow this looks so cool!

[XEMON]

Thanks
I'll take a picture with it re-assembled for record

[lhamilton1807]

Is the Somix on its way to SETHZILLA?

Already shipped 👍

This is how it shipped:

Not quite finished, but can ya pickup what I’m throwing down?

A stroke of luck, my millenium frame wasn’t playing nice with my victor spump, but found a better home here anyway. Gonna use the HPR so we can put in the softest hammer spring someone else included.

I love the 3d print feedneck but I had a spare sconi one that a new player can do new player stuff with haha.

I seem to be last in line, but I feel like we need more input, so I am gonna tell the fellas at the local field to bring parts to our next meeting on January 11th.

That will give me a good chance to test our little Frankenstein in battle and shake out any potential issues.

Then I’ll clean and degrease it as much as I can, and send it disassembled to KMDPB

If you want to help out without getting your fingers dirty, it could still use a nice ASA, some panel grips like hogue palmswells, or a meme bolt

[KMDPB]

Good taste in hot sauce

[lhamilton1807]

I love it! The single trigger frame looks great and the metal feedneck is definitely nicer than my printed one 🤣. I only have spare non-nifty ASAs.

Did SETHZILLA! get a crack at it? He’s on the list but didn’t post any pictures.

[Jsc5150]

He sent along some e-frames and an upgraded valve I believe.

I was originally going to add a rocker trigger frame but that one seems to have disappeared.

But if someone is actually gonna use this I figured the bob long frame would be better than dealing with 9.6v batteries and no eyes

[lhamilton1807]

Does the millennium frame take regular 45 grips? If so I can probably just print up a pair.

Like these?

[SETHZILLA!]

Yes sir I added a locking feed neck, new spring kit, E-frames, and a valve. Since the body had already been milled, i figured it would be just good to have spare parts options. didn't take any pics, since i didn't end up modifying it at all.

This community always does the coolest shit, you guys rock 🤟

[Jsc5150]

Need some input guys.

I’m having a hard time getting our girl to chrono above 255, even using a red main spring, softest valve spring and the magna valve.

I have an inkling that the body cut might be letting too much gas past the oringless bolt.

Anyone got a spare spyder bolt that has orings so I can test this theory?

I’ll test the stock valve just in case, and maybe my 2012 victor valve if it’s different.

[Jsc5150]

Impactfour Good lookin out !

If it’s got orings I’ll pay for it’s ticket to my door

[SETHZILLA!]

I'll check my parts box for the 10+ bolts in it. If i have a o-ring one i can get it in the mail today. I'll let ya know

[Jsc5150]

@SETHZILLA!

Awesome!

[Impactfour]

Apparently I can't read, as this bolt is o-rings less, lemme know if it still suits your needs, though I imagine it won't if you need o rings...

[Jsc5150]

No worries, thanks for trying!

[SETHZILLA!]

Here is a few I have with o-rings

[Jsc5150]

Bottom seems to be the best choice

[lhamilton1807]

So where did we end up? I hope the velocity issues are taken care of Any help needed still?

[Jsc5150]

Still with me, got a little busy and haven’t messed with it.

This weekend I’ll switch the valve and see if I can get good speed. If it doesn’t, let’s try an oringed bolt or maybe I’ll get my buddy to drill out the valve port since the body cut up anyway.

[lhamilton1807]

Ok gents - winter is over. Where’s this stand?

[Jsc5150]

Sorry I have been dealing with some personal stuff the last few weeks and have totally blanked on this.

I got it shooting ~270 with a red spring and the stock valve, I’m not totally pleased but it’s functional.

Would anyone else like a crack at it before sending it in for anno?
