  3. Thanks for the info all! I am going to attempt the green stuff tonight. What's the worse that can happen? I clean it off and try again. Here goes nothing....
  4. Thanks for your work on the reference and thanks for your reply. <br><br> I did make a spring and all, but im still wondering if you woul just apply the green stuff straight to the cap and shape the tabs? Or do I fabricate the tabs and glue them into the end cap? <br><br> My spring isnt that strong, but the end cap is fairly loose and I need to tighten it up regardless.
  5. Wow I wish I saw this before I attempted mine. This sounds like the perfect solution. Maybe I will do so and try to recover from my attempt. Thanks for the links!
  6. Hi everyone! I started a full resin doopy doos E11 blaster kit a couple weeks ago. I will post my build soon, but wanted to get some content together first. I have been following most of the mods on the reference post. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/32111-fisd-e-11-blaster-reference/(which is awesome by the way!!!!!) I have recreated the internal bolt and spring, but now have to work on the end cap. In the reference, they mention building up the tabs and carving out the grooves so there is a reinforced end cap to hold the spring pressure back. I see the pictures of the tabs being built up with "green stuff" putty but have a question about how to do so? Does one just put the putty directly on the end cap, let dry, and then shape? Or is it build the tabs from putty and then glue to them onto the end cap? Anyone have any pointers? I assume I will not want to glue the end cap on since I have moving parts inside and may need to access to repair at some point.
  7. I see. Thanks for the advice all. I understand better now kit is in hand. I was thinking that sight block was much larger then I thought. Makes more sense now that I have my hands on it. Here goes nothing!
  8. Greetings, I am about to start a doopy doos E11 kit. I like the idea of recreating the front sight. The Reference thread mentions using a carved block of plastic. I have searched my scrap stuff and the local hardware store, but I can't seem to find a chunk of plastic like that. Anyone have any suggestions on how/where I find myself material like that? I assume I could use wood...and metal isn't really something I am equipped to work with easily. Anyone have any suggestions?
