Some pews just try you, don't they?

Boneyard M14. 

I've learned a LOT repairing this beastie. Only I've just snapped the reciever clean in half on the last knockings of putting it back together. 

Ping. 

Feck. 

My YouTube history goes like this::

M14 gearbox

M14 switch assembly

M14 why did I do it?

M14 screws like wtf?

M14 working

I feel your pain but I'm thinking I need to get myself a boneyard something just to take apart! Just to see how it works and to see if I can make it better. lol

Oh if you can do it it's monumentalally satisfying. Only sometimes you just have to suck it up and spend more on parts than buying a new one! ??

Well....JB weld to the rescue. 

Never used JB before -ive used loads of 2 part epoxy resin types just not this one - and so far she's holding up. 

Got some bits coming from a lovely guy on here so hopefully she'll be ready to try out soon....
