I Guess ill have to make two stamps for that , no worries . The builder can choose , Good catch !Thanks I do have one of the small ones somewhere,,,.

the real ones were probably not something you bought off the shelf in the 40's... more than likely they were custom for the application. That is why no one has found them in other equipment. I've decided to make them in both sizes 5mm x26 and 26.5 ... Ill have both if someone has a pref. Did you send your address yet??? send to [email protected]

Getting the color right is going to be the challenge,,,, we paint them black anyway maybe i won't get crucified?

I have both kinds,,, i can do them both! http://www.warmachinepaintball.com/2016/07/30/201607302016073020160730hengstler-counters/ Henry what your thought on the metalmite size 5mm by 26mm i think there slightly longer. Scaling them pictures of the radar manifold they could be 26.5mm ????? what do you think? You sent me your address yet i want to send you one?

Yes I did see his molded parts,, they are very nice . I have broken the counter down into 16 parts....The rear housing i sent to be cast, the inner housing will be laser cut and machined. The tumblers turned and machined on the 4th axis , the mechanism will not work but from the front view should look perfect..print a few labels you can have whatever number you want. The front is being molded with the od radius plastic bezel.. The push button and inner solenoid with printing should be easy..... The weight should be close to the real thing and hold up very well . Should make a great kit......................................

I started the single point scope, Making a mold for the clear front , as soon as that is complete i can machine the rest

Your the right" Aaron" ,, ill drop it in the mail . whats your address.. If anyone else wants to try one ,Brain, Michael,Aaron, Jim ,,,Sean You can email me direct [email protected] I spent alot of time on the contour of the 5mm meatalmite capacitor... I have a pretty good collection of the caps, in all sizes. They are all a little different, even the pic in 83# those tcc are all unique just like my vintage metalmites. They were hand machined, hand assembled and probably hand crimped. In my newest version ( Batch 4) I evolved the ends to reflect this , hopefully they capture the essence of the real ones. ill let you guys judge. As i refine my manufacturing the prices get better! yeehah SOMEONE FIND ME A M19 LOL/crying

The price of the real vintage items will increase and not stop... More interest and more movies equalls more fans.. Most of these relics are lost to time, whats left are carefully controlled... Believe me finding the real stuff to Copy and preserve is most challenging. On a different note , ive got another batch of metalmite caps coming off the machine today. Made some slight changes to be even more realistic... These little things get alot of attention... Hell i should have set up to foil and plug them. I had a vintage electronic guy wanting them for his tube amp ... He thought i was crazy making a look alike that doesnt do anything Lmoa . Ive been buying up all the vintage resitors for that cylinder build , those 40, 50s old carbon resitors are getting harder to come buy too. Send me your addresses ill send you one to look at Brain, Michael,Aaron, Jim ,,,Sean i get everyone in this threaad lol>>>

Henry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what a find, i emailed him hopefully its not gone..... Do you talk to him much? Finding the stuff is almost as much fun as building it

Found your stuff Brain ,, Great work

Where are your kits ,, love to see them... Where do you sell? The large front ring has very fine threads , I have to be very careful when I QC them . if they are damaged in any way they will not thread in ... I had a few customers cross thread them at first... I started threading them in here before I send them now. This project is over 100 different parts for all the assemblies I am doing. People really love the metalmite stuff . Those power cylinders have been a hit. I am still working on improving those... Wish I could find a real e11 from the movie.... You got one of those ???? LMAO I also got a lot of requests for the dl44(broom handle mauser ) duh... How are you making a mold??? I am a very good mold maker!!!!!

Great pictures Henry, I understand not wanting it out of your site... I draw in Mastercam , its the cadcam software I use on the cnc machines. I would put it in a laser coor measuring machine it get the all the radius and fillets perfect. It would be a lot faster to draw and program this way . If you change your mind about selling or loaning please contact me directly... I would take care of it better than my own stuff. And would probably owe you my soul LOL The casting on the counter should be back from the foundry in a month or so ,,, the plastic parts I can do here in my shop. I will make a tool to stamp the logo . I don't think I can engrave it , I will experiment on some blanks when I get a chance. Thanks Henry the electronic links are just what im looking for

Fantastic!!!!

I love this project,, its growing everyday... The Hengstler project is going very well also , I am having the rear housing cast in alum and the plastic part injection molded. The counter is a tough item to find I was lucky to have these to copy . The counters were on all the looms and textile equipment. I gathered them up when I was younger... I'm trying to keep my blog up to date, It is a lot of parts to keep everyone informed about. I posted a lot of new parts today.. ( warmachinepaintball.com and tshirtgun.com) I need to locate a m19 scope to replicate, I have several m38 scopes but the m19 seem to be as hard to find. If you know anyone who has one they would sell , loan ect I would be very app ... I would draw it up for the cnc You know anyone that make some good electronics for blaster sounds? Thanks for the HIGH praise, IT means a lot HENRY I hope to get my armor from RS prop master this month , I really need to join the 501

Very nice work,,, keep it up

bought another at gun show today ,,, there not cheap but they have collector value in the gun world too......

I got the one on ebay??? should not be to hard to repro

Ive been online researching this ,,, Your totally right theres nothing any good . This gun seem to be neglected. The replica grips and frame im making will help , i will have to do more research to see what else that gun needs. Got to find a scope to copy----priority one everthing else i ccan machine from pictures.......

Your right,,, got to look into those. What scope is on that gun?

Nice collection!!!!,,,, ill use this model to get some measurements , should not be to hard to mock this up nicely.............. might grab a master replica to figure out the mounts?

vmusicstore is ebay store,,, sorry for the confusion i build alot of fun stuff it ggets scattered...

Got very lucky this week and found a vintage k98 sniper scope.. I guess i'm going to make a solo blaster LOL http://www.warmachinepaintball.com/2016/08/12/rudiger-scope-han-solo-blaster/

Thankyou ,,, means alot . Ive learned this group has an acute sense of detail... I love it

Should, they are 48 threads per inch if i recall................................

Cant wait to see that SeanTX ,,, post pics...... I thought about putting a small camera in the front/(back) of the scope and a small display... Not screen accurate but could be cool. Ill let my electronics guy look into that.
