Speedbird_666 Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 25 minutes ago, mightyjebus said: That's awesome. reminds me of something I'm messing around with currently Gotta love a G11 - and all the other '90/'00 'space guns' for the ACR/OICW programs. I'm starting to gather reference pictures for a Steyr ACR - mainly to test my surface modelling skills with more complex shapes. Gonna be a pig to model with my limited 'skillz'. I'm also taking a crack at the original HK XM8 concept art (by an Audi designer!) when they figured that the G36 wasn't sexy enough for the yanks. It's batshit bonkers - but I like it.

mightyjebus Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 The ACR is going to be a tough one to model by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Anonymoose Posted December 8 Popular Post Share Posted December 8 Little bits and pieces yesterday Modifying my G3 scope mount to delete the rail and lower the scope as much as possible. Bit of milling, drilling and tapping and got it 95% how i want. Little more needed but i'm happy with it. Then a quick job with some spare brass and delrin; a Mini Tamiya terminal remover.

Popular Post LMKipper Posted Saturday at 19:49 Popular Post Share Posted Saturday at 19:49 Well one of the reasons I got my recent Tanaka was that is had a Spartan hop but for some reason, the standard nozzle. This meant it didn’t seal well with the Spartan hop, with inconsistent fps. Long out of production, someone sent me the correct length of the Spartan unit. Measured the Tanaka stocker, then whizzed this up on my lathe in 20 mins. Let’s see how it tests!

When you have a lathe, a mill and a welder, everything is whatever the hell you want it to be. Tackle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I miss my old job, as well as my own workshop I had access to 4 others, correction 5, & pretty much every tool under the sun, cnc mills to plasma cutters to mini diggers, & everything in between.

It's nice to be able to go into the garage and fix or make anything. (Shame i don't own the house. ☹️) Ironically, what tools i have at work fit in the boot of my little Peugeot runaround.

MistakenMexican Posted Sunday at 12:02 Share Posted Sunday at 12:02 So not necessarily gun related, but gear related. Printed this ornamental skull and stand to put an old facemask on 😃 Got the idea from an American company doing them. ButcherBill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
