  1. I used a sex bolt for the rear pivoting connection of the folding stock on my build. It was scary drilling all the way through but the end result was well worth it. As for the front.... That was a little more difficult. I ended up just filing down the area until my stock snapped in place. It is metal on plastic so it could easily break one day. But for now she works perfectly. I may have to look into adding magnets as a fail safe hold! Thanks for the idea Aaron and Brian I'll be waiting lol!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. That is another awesome mod!! Your skills are amazing!! Please take my money when your ready to sell your sights!!!! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Thanks bud!! Be ready!!!! My RTMod kit is only a couple months away. Your going to be on speed dial lol!!! Thank you, it wouldn't look that good without your help and many more others help and guidance!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Yep. Started small and just kept changing drill bits until I had the right diameter hole to fit my sex bolt. Thank you Steve! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. Hmm will have to do some more research to verify the correct position. Thanks again Tino. Your input is invaluable!!! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. I do have a question. I have seen some Hengster counters with a single brass screw on the top off the counter. Is that something I should add? I do believe I was given a spare screw from blue Snaggletooth for that purpose but I was not sure.
  7. Thanks Tino!! Yes, I definitely will take my time with the sight mod!! I am going to slowly make the sight part first and then and only then will I measure my dovetail cut out. Actually scares me thinking about cutting it out already lmao!!! As for the brass screw, I will add some wash and paint to darken it up so as though it's not so shiny. I did use a matte finish to protect the paint job but just touching it up still works it just may have to be touched up every so often because there is nothing protecting the newly touched up area. Thanks again!!!!
  8. Thank you Germain!!! Yes, after seeing Bulldog's dovetail mod I decided I would eventually use his idea. I honestly am going to take that mod the slowest just to make sure I do it right. Phenomenal idea I just hope I have the skills to not screw it up. As you can see I "cheated" often and used real parts instead of sick mods that I could only dream of completing. This was my first build and I do have a second Doopydoos kit ready to build so maybe I will experiment more on that one when it comes to more mods. As for the brass screw... I considered that my first screw up lol. I noticed I glued that in the free position literally minutes after it was glued but was afraid to try to fix it. Minor flaw lol!!!
  9. Special thank you to Steve/Gazmosis for his folding stock upgrade idea. I loved adding this to my blaster! I did attach it differently then you did but the idea was yours and awesome. I used sex bolts and grommets that I filed to shape. This is how they looked from the hardware store - A grommet was filed and put on each end to fill the gap and hold the sex bolt in place. The sex bolt was the perfect length no adjustment needed beyond adding the grommets on each end.
  10. I figured I would put this in the proper section now that I have finished. This is a standard Doopydoos kit with some upgrades. Thanks goes to Blue Snaggletooth for my Hengster counter and m38 scope. Thank you Evilboy for my one piece scope rail. Thank you Gazmosis for your clip. Thank you Karin for your end cap ring. Thank you to all the builders before me that inspired me to finish mine! My own garrison mate DM101, Dark CMF, Gazmosis, T-Jay, OsotheBear, SIMPixel, I could go on and on... Your builds were all used at one point or another, Thank you!! Hopefully very soon I will add a PlayfulWolfCub power cylinder and I still need to finish my sight, but other then those two things it is ready to go. I hope you like!!!
  11. Masterful!!! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  12. Evilboy one piece scope rail. Thanks guys! I'll take better shots when I finish touching it up. Still need to make the t tracks flat black and a couple other small things to touch up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. They were out when I tried to order initially. Only took 2 days for an email stating they were back in stock. The wait was nothing compared to other items I have had to order for my builds. I just finished building my first of 2. Was a great time! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
