Dad's Old B2K Revival!!

[RustyShackleford]

I plan to cut the tray down the best i can and mount the frame to that- I stock frame doesnt give me much room so i may get an old promaster frame to use- not sure just yet. I am open to suggestions though!

Solenoid has been ordered- now the waiting game

Pilot holes drilled for eyes and mounting screw hole! I used an old eye cover from my buddy George to help figure out where everything had to be

Solenoid is here! 3D printed eye covers look like they will fit good

63VDub - I see exactly what youre talking about here. I think i will go the route of filing a notch in the fitting or drilling/dremeling an air pathway here. I think i have a 10/32 thread die at my work so i can check the threads on the fitting i have to check.

Let me know how it works for you.

Thank you 63VSub! Did you have to do any work to your ram to coax it to cycle or did it rock right away? did you experience any troubles with a project like this?

[63VDub]

I had no real issues. Because your air path is longer, you may need to bump dwell by a ms or two

Here we go, notched, i used a coping saw to start the notch, then i used an endmill to bring it down and a die to clean up the threads! IMG_3565.jpg IMG_3566.jpg IMG_3567.jpg
