  1. Soooooo... Update soon but no shipping until the end of December. Anyone holding their breath for shipping in 2015?

     

    Let's hope this is not the start of their infamous "shipping delay spiral of doom"!!!

    I just hope all yall who ordered in May will be receiving soon.. I gave up hope up that mine will come this month since they originally said Late November/Early December... I ordered in September, so I probably have a while before it shows up.

  2. That is a huge update, Aaron. Just your clearing strip on the inner bolt seems a bit wide to me. Would suggest to check the cleaned Sterling parts in the gallery chapter. Correct width is about 6,4mm.

     

    Are you going to do some fine-tuning on the front sight guard and the hole in your folding stock front?

    Yeah, the strip does look a bit thick, I'll be making it smaller.

     

    And yes, I will be fine tuning the sight and the hole. I'll take some more photos of them to get your input. These are also just rough starts on the parts.

     

    I hope to work done soon, but one of my sisters is getting married this week, so I probably won't get much done. Hopefully Friday will bring more updates. :)

     

    And thanks for all the pointers Tino! They are really appreciated. :)

  3. Here is my progress! Please note that I was working and I got in the 'zone' and forgot to take photos...

    Folding Stock - needs sanding.

    And this is where I did not take photos... Here's what it looks like so far.

  4. All righty! I was able to work a bit tonight. Here's my progress. Also changed the photos to be smaller, better for viewing. :)

     

    I finally found a way to look at references by putting my iPad in a plastic bag. Happy day, no nasty resin! I brought the thickness of the flash guards down and the sanded down the gluing side.

    Next I replaced the fake screw with real ones.

    Then I worked on the trigger. I used a spring from a pen that was graciously donated by college recruiters. :)

    Chris, your suggestion worked wonderfully! I was able to get the proper size for the hole.

    Getting the selector and the d-ring thingy fixed for the proper d-ring. For the selector I sanded a bit to much so in the pictures below I used foam to build up the height, later i found a washer of the proper size that I will use instead.

    Next came the folding stock. Then drilled the holes out and cleared out the resin and fitted the pipe insert.

    That's as far as I have gotten tonight.

  5. Nope, according to the email, ANOVOS says it comes pre-built, as does the belt/holster:

     

     

     

    I suspect that this means the TD might also be actually bolted to the belt, which means relocating the TD clips might expose holes in the belt. Not sure about this, though.

    Too bad. It would be better for both parties if it came incomplete. They would just send us the pieces and we put it together. Oh well.
