Thanks guys. I like how the T-tracks turned out. I had some time to sand the butt stock. This was my first time using the green stuff, and it's safe to say I used way too much. I have sanded it a lot, but still have much more to go. As an intermediate I put some bondo to fill some cracks and primed it because it really shows what needs work. Here are some pics, but more sanding is in the future for this piece. I also filled some holes on the gun.

All communications have it shipping sometime in December. We shall see if it holds true. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

While waiting for the butt stock to fully cure I decided it was T-track day. I went with plastruct to make them. I made the base 13mm wide and the T 10mm tall. Shaped the end of the T and used some E6000 to glue it together. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

It's looking real good. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

Here is my crack at the buttstock. Used some left over PVC, the BYOB butt stock and some green stuff. Once it dries I will sand it down and see how it comes out. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

Very nice.

You will be fine. You got the skills. I was thinking about just using a piece of wood for that part and not going all the way around. Just doing the "bump" side. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

Take screws out. Have 2 small holes. I am good with that. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

I love it!!! Looks awesome. The sharp pulls look good to me. I am super excited. Can't wait for it to come.

Wow! Very shiney! Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

Awesome. Very nice detail.

I primed than sprayed the inner tube flat black. The picture makes it look gloss but it's not. I also tried my hand at making some T-tracks. Aside from the top not being entirely straight, what do you think? Should I make them taller? Overall shape ok? I made them out of plastruct, base is 13 mm wide and T is 7 mm tall. Also started on one of the sights. Using a piece of walnut that was laying around. Painted it white to use some contact paper to transfer the shape to the wood. More to come....still thinking about what to use between the blaster and but stock.

Nice. Will you be able to share the files for others looking to print certain parts?

Looks pretty good.

Had a few spare moments before work today. I finished assembling the outter barrel. Next I will be cutting the inner barrel to size and painting it.

Thanks!!

Quick question. I may have missed it, but what was the diameter of the cocking handle?

Very nice detail. You look at all the details.

Yes it's 3/4". My plan was to paint before I assemble the outter barrel.

Made some more progress today. Cut some pipes and sanded/cut pieces to for them together. Also glued some pieces together, even some that didn't need it. A little E6000 never hurts I guess. Once everything dries I will test fit the outer barrel so I can cut the inner barrel to the correct size.

Wow. Beautiful! I don't think I can get mine to look like that. That was above and beyond.

I hit them up on Facebook asking the same. They replied yesterday that the newsletter will drop shortly. So no idea....

I used the contact form on their website. If I remember correctly it was only a few days for them to contact me. If you have waited longer than that or need help and can try to get you in direct contact with one of the member liasons I have been talking to.

I am in the same boat as you. I live on Long Island and have a kit ordered. I have contacted the empire city garrison and they have been great. They got back to me pretty quick.

Where in NY are you located? Reach out to the 501st garrison closest to you.
