What did you get in the mail today?

[lhamilton1807]

Parts for 40 DIY durable colored arm bands. I figured everyone could put one on each arm. These should last longer than the cheapo thin elastic ones with Velcro and cost about $1.20 each. My mother did sewing with nylon webbing when I was a kid and will help sew them up for me.

10 yards each of 2” poly webbing and a bag of 50 tri-glide sliders. Ladder lock buckles will arrive in a few weeks.

So much better than single use surveyor's tape. Can nylon webbing be sewn with a standard home sewing machine? I know it requires a certain size needle, but I wonder if the motors in cheap, consumer sewing machines can handle it.

[lhamilton1807]

Yes, nylon webbing can be stitched using a rinky dink home sewing machine. I found this guide when doing research. He goes over sewing nylon, poly, and cotton webbing/straps.

I didn’t get nylon, though. The polyurethane webbing is much more lightweight and has a softer feel. It’s also cheaper. I figured these won’t bear any weight and might be against someone’s skin, so I bought poly webbing instead. Again at less than $1.25 a pop I’m sure they’ll get many years of use. They’ll probably be lost before they’re broken.

Got my diy walz kit today!! Still trying to get the valve to fit the lower tube, but I am up to the challenge of making it work!

also went to a junk bonanza got this horn. I was hoping to solder it to a pgp, but not sure it necks small enough. Also got this brass widget. I think itll make a mighty fine front sight for the walz project. . Ill cut it down some before use. Hope I can solder it on.

[JeepDVLZ45]

Nice! And you beat me to it. I was going to add a brass horn to my PGP pirate! Now I need to come up with a new idea…

[BrickHaus]

Nah, go for it. I think Ill try to mount a reg and an asa to this so I can bring a battle air horn.

It'll be hard to make this horn work on a pgp. Plus the idea just hit me today when I saw the horn. Lol

[DavionGuard]

Feedneck came through.

[scottieb]

The single trigger looks so good on there.

[DavionGuard]

I removed as much of the tacticool crap I could, but kept the mock suppressor, I kind of like the look of it!

[ChuckLove]

Thanks to latches109 for the Dye Slide Frame & Factory MacDev Springs. My Sonic Resto-mod build is finally done!

[Alexndl]

I love the chrome and red theme!

[ChuckLove]

DavionGuard Alexndl Thanks Guys! I just made some small adjustments at the chrono and she's shooting perfect. 👍

[WALZ]

Today i received the masks and clips from Brickhaus and they are in great shape.. thank you brother...

along with the masks were these surprise gifts..Three Fine wood cups with super grain and they are so thin is amazing...

Joanne is using the big short one as our new candy dish and the two tall cups she is putting in her China cabinet..

She says to tell you a special thanks from her...

Thank you much buddy....

[BrickHaus]

Im so happy you guys both enjoy them. I had a good hunch you would like them Walz, but making the misses smile.... Thats icing on the cake!

Its a small token of appreciation buddy. You deserve them and more honestly.

Thank you for everything.

PMR grips from the bay. The acrylic ones that came with the gun are super chunky and IMO look hideous.

I also have a CP 2k5 ASA I want to add to my PMR - it came with the gun originally but needs a plunger and oring. The one I threw on there from my parts box just doesn’t fit the gun’s profile I think. Julie from CP is sending me the parts for free because it wouldn’t be worth it to charge a card for the transaction. Super service from CP!

Bottom line adapter and velocity adjuster arrived for the AGg-MG. Now to start chasing leaks.

[scottieb]

No drop forward?

[DavionGuard]

Only Billy Wing was allowed to use a drop forward after 2005.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Friends don’t let friends use drop forwards.

[lhamilton1807]

Ladder buckles (the bigger ones at the bottom). I can now start making durable adjustable arm bands - 20 each of red and blue. Will write up a how-to when I’ve had a chance to build these at my mother’s place.

[ChuckLove]

After four months, both my Rasta & Tigerstripe JT Straps have arrived. Here is the Rasta on my ProShield.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Looks good on there. Who made those.

[ChuckLove]

Chuck E Ducky Thanks! I thought the black strap would look good with an all black mask They're Jt straps from Paintball Retro.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Oh nice I don’t see them must have got some new stuff in.

[BrickHaus]

I technically picked this up locally from autococker04 on Monday, but I officially paid the gent last night, so I'm sharing now.

I got this recent town bike train wreck of a stroker project. I believe its been bought and sold 3 times on the forum since Janurary, and I see why. Seems to be an early PPS hack job, or someone tried to seal leaks after the fact. I hope to get rid of the epoxy and get it holding air with out such measures.

Hope to make a pneumatic assist lever pirate if I can get the base gun live.

[Relief]

This is also true. I think they use it on the back side of the LPR’s or something.
I don’t think slopped on the threads of air fittings?

[Jordan]

PPS uses red loctite way too much but I've never seen them use epoxy, other than maybe on the vertical ASAs. Interesting.

[BrickHaus]

It could have been an end user that did this, but I have a buddy who works on pretty much every local pps gun. We had another mutual friend who sent a gun to pps for a rebuild. He got it back leaking. When my pps guru friend pulled the valve it had epoxy behind it. We assume a pps tech did it, so naturally I assumed this as also a pps deal.

As the mailman is coming up the road * insert Borat voice here* My Wife tells me, " oh the mail man has something for you.."

So I watched the mailman bring a box to the front door and walk away... inside was this! She ordered me this limited edition bag of Northern Lights Coffee with a limited edition insulated cup. Man she a cool lady.

Im going to press an espresso shot right now just to try it.

[waffles2]

I really enjoy small batch coffee roasters. We have a place here in Atlanta that blows me away every time.

[BenoitOWN]

Did I inspire her to get you limited coffee from your multiple orders? :P

[BrickHaus]

Im not gonna lie Benoit. I think she really just wanted the cup for herself. And got me the limited set to steal the cup.

She got an email about this set, as she usually gets me a coffee advent from this roaster.

But I see her.....

[Menso]

oDm makes the beautiful pump handle to bring it all together

[XEMON]

[Menso]
