aac Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hello members, I'am new on this forum, and also quit new in the Airsoft world. The CBC is a unique initiative, and i would like to join it. Since the only airsoft-aspect i 'am mastering is "Gunsmithing" What i'm will (trying) to do, is building an MK18mod1, By making as many part's, as possible by myself I make al the pieces, and plan's by "old school" techniques, conventional, drawing, lathing, milling etc. I'am started with the Daniel Defense RIS2 -first i spend many hours on google, searching after reference material/pic's, and then i made the drawings, whit only the foto's as a reference ! -After the plan's where made, i began machining the RIS (lathing,milling,drilling etc) -The upper en lower half are made out of alluminium, sand blasted en spray painted (i found anodizing to expensive) -The bolt up system plate is made of steel, and finished the same way I will post the progress-pic's in order of manufactering Link to post Share on other sites

bettyblue84 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hello, thanks Do you mean the Bolt Up System Plate ? and what did you do ? to make it into scrap ? Yeah the bolt up plate. I filed the part on the inside where the barrel nut keeps it secure. Now when I screw the barrel nut on the bolt up plate slides over the top of it and off. Link to post Share on other sites
emp3ror86 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 At first I was like. Then at the beginning of the pictures. By the end of the pictures. And in the end: That is the most outstanding airsoft project I have ever seen! Congratulations! Link to post Share on other sites

SEAL6_95 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Is the build quality of yours better than the madbull one? Link to post Share on other sites
MRF Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Is the build quality of yours better than the madbull one? With all respect to AAC's work which is impressive, let's not exaggerate. Link to post Share on other sites
Manxmadman Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Well it has the hole for the gas tube unlike the madbull one does And depending on whether you luck out or not, its probably closer to 1933 spec than some of the madbull ones which are oversized. Link to post Share on other sites

That's true, but I'm pretty sure that AAC's intention was no to race with CNCed products . Which is really, really hard, if ever possible, using hand tools. Or "hand controlled" tools, to be more specific. Link to post Share on other sites

aac Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Is the build quality of yours better than the madbull one? i don't know ? never seen in real ife, like i already said in the beginning of this topic, the plans are made with ONLY google-pic's About the quality, don't forget Normaly the DD Ris is a computer designed, and made part, it's impossible to make it identical to a cnc part, using conventional machinery, so it's my personal challenge to make an cnc piece using old school techniques.
