FBM Build Thread (we build 3 FBM Spyders)

[OpusX]

Slowly these are still coming together. Added an Alamo City striker and Taso frame to the mix.

One of these days we may actually get these out for anno. Glad we waited as now ZaDeer is part of the build group. Also I was able to snag a Knuckle Duster frame.

It's looking good!

[scottieb]

We'll have to see ZaDeer's build!

I've a different FBM body and it's already anno'd. It just needs a VA but I'm having trouble sourcing one I like.

ZaDeer

We demands pictures and a progress update!!!!!

[ZaDeer]

Here's an update, need to pull apart a Spyder here to grab internals but coming along! Anybody know what the threads are for the feedback?

[OpusX]

Feed necks should be Angel threaded. Its looking good so far.

[OpusX]

Its happening! Finally getting packed for anno.

The BMC LPCs are cool and all, but KCCockerDoc did the real heavy lifting on these, which is usually how my builds go at this point. Lots of little subtle fixes like the location of the vert ASA hole, dual detents, and at least on mine, a top ramped 3 "o" ring bolt that has been adapted to work with the the AKA cocking rod and cage.

I handled the VS2/3 valve conversions on two of these bodies with his guidance.

[scottieb]

Oh man! I had no idea there was going to be a balanced valve in them. They are going to be such sweet shooters.

[Myrkul]

Yep! Mine and nobbie333 's are getting balanced valves. Should be super sweet to see how low we can get them running with all the extra volume from the LPCs !
