MadDog Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Yeah We have a hell of an order planned, going to give our center lathe powered tooling, and then put a milling bed on the back to give us a mill/4-axis lathe setup. Thats if it all works Link to post Share on other sites
rolling-thunder Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 This last set of pix & up grades was almost as good as the build.It will be interesting to see how smooth it fires afterwards,not to smooth i hope because its character needs that Agricultural feel & sound to it{not to much in case it rattles to pieces}. You've done another good job,i just hope you are keeping all the notes & plans so when it's finally finished you could go into production making cracking guns. RT Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Cheers Plans? Notes? What are these? lol honestly we built that thing on the fly. I'm sure that it's (working) existence defies various laws. It is more a proof-of-concept/prototype though. Though we do have some plans for a 2nd generation full-stroke blowblack model but that's a long way off as we're redesigning the entire thing. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but once you've finished with the construction the gun could be stripped down & measured & plans drawn retrospectively you have the thread to act as notes with photos that are easy enough to understand{easier i would imagine,if you are the people who actually built the gun.} I like seeing things being built.I can appreciate engineering even if i'm no good at it or have no space to try myself.When the end result is as good as what you have built then i take my hat off to you to acknowledge your skills.

aeviv Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Jeez that thing is scary Even i wouldnt want to charge that . Just curious, whats the ROF on that thing now with the new springs? Link to post Share on other sites
L4byr1nth Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 This is awesome! Can't wait for the new video! Ben. Link to post Share on other sites
m4matty Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 wow great project! am starting to but some bits together for my own m2hb project (aeg bassed) where did you guys get the dimensions from ? or did you make it on the fly ? Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Well If your going to GroundZero this weekend you'll be able to see (shoot?) the M2 Sadly I won't be there because I'm QUOTE gay UNQUOTE, lol. We gave the M2 a lick of paint yesterday as it needed a bit of touching up sadly the spray gun was out of action so we had to resort to brushes Fingers crossed it looks good for GZ, though I have no idea how the guys are going to carry it around as the whole set up weighs and absolute ton m4matty: sorry we didn't keep any measurements we took but some of our research data is available from here.

wideload Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 yep i can confirm that he's a massive bender but dont worry the real men of the Isle of Man will be there (but not me, as i'm going to a tea party with catman) Link to post Share on other sites
