FBM Build Thread (we build 3 FBM Spyders)

[Myrkul]

Mine is with KCCockerDoc getting fitted for an AKA bolt cage.

I was going to try a shotgun cleaning kit with a drill to clean up the insides. Probably should be really gently sand blasted at some point too.

I think we are waiting on BMC to do a run of LPCs for us to, but he just moved so it got pushed to the back burner.

Updates on this?

I still need to just submerge this thing in about a gallon of CitriStrip to get the internal paint and other small areas cleaned up.

You absolutely should. You've done some fantastic work for us and it keeps getting better!

The hole for the vertical Asa is blocked by the low pressure chamber

What do you mean "redrilled the vasa?"

[OpusX]

Omg he lives !!

[KCCockerDoc]

I guess now that I'm finally on here I'll have to see if I can put together a thread of all the work I've done for you guys. Gonna be a fun build! Dual detent and redrilled for the vasa.

[OpusX]

He did a damn fine job

[Myrkul]

Thanks to KCCockerDoc My dual detents have been completed!

Well I haven’t really built anything in several years now so I wouldn’t consider my stuff a benchmark by any means, but thank you for the kind words! If I finished up the 4 different projects I have right now I would go broke in ano costs alone. Lol.
I have 2 FBM bodies now, my VLM, and my VLM SBM. I’m also stupidly enough I’m chasing another VLM, because I’m apparently not done with collecting like I thought I was. Sigh.

[scottieb]

The Bob Long frame looks right at home on this body.

To inspire you with a Spyder build would be high praise.

[GanonsGrin]

I got 4 of these from the same person as well (2 for me, 2 for a buddy), so I will see where you all go with yours to find inspiration.

Subbed because of new Spyders!
