digging through some sterling parts boxes i came across these... Good find ill use these to make some copies... There is about 60 so ill put them on the sites for sale also

working on finishing the greedo flash hider wing nut

Sending the front plastic cover to my injection molding guy,,, should have that back and ready in 30 days.... mean time ill work on replicating the coil.

Doing a good bit of work on finishing my Hengstler large eagle counter... completed the rear cast first ,,, many months ago and kinda forget to do the rest ... the internal box is being machined with the likeness i can do . Will probably cast that after a laser scan.. that will take several months to complete so im machining one to get started. [/u ]

alum parts comparison looks really good ,,,I am super happy how the alum casting come out... all the details have been captured ..

Have no fear the trigger group is already under way,,, i have post some o fthe cad drawing already. I am planning to layer the pieces like the real frame with an interal machine profile.. This will enable some switches and a function safety , with the ability to screw this thing to the bottom with out welding.

I don't have a great way of taking that pic right now(soon ) ,,, I had a spring manufacture copy the coils and length of the vintage springs and guides. Should be like the real thing other than it will be a lighter rate and load on the spring should look and compress the same.. I even put the tapers on the spring so they lock into the grooves on the guides

Finnishing touches on the sterling support...

Steel can get into more legal issues with the tubes and internals..... it would be easier the weld than alum but/////????

Headed to the laser

Extractor for the e11

My next aluminum Casting project is ready for the mold process

Got some more of my aluminum casting sam ples today.... They are dead on , just need some deburring and bead blasting...

Getting there

M19 part going through its operations

mystery disc

I found a really great piece of history that you guys may or may not appreciate ..It is one of my Favorite Mechanisms ............. Intricate and elegant...( only trumped by my love for the Luger) Im going to model a paintball frame from this eventually.... the heavy blaster guys should love this thing also.. Notice the E and the D E= "einzelfeuer," semi-automatic fire, D= "dauerfeuer," full automatic fire the operator had the option of fire modes ,, the full auto was released by the lower part of the trigger...Notice the extra safety trigger on the bottom half..A lot of modern hand guns use this as a safety now...Glock ,HK ,walther ect

empty periscope port

twnbrother i see your time in Germany you have found a sherman,,,, Sorry the tank did not still have the periscope....
