Hey I wanted to throw out for you hose clamp option the bands and the pliers to install them for a CV joint on a car front axle. It wouldn't be easy to disassemble to clean your buffer tube in spring but how often does that really need to be done. The bands are really cheap they're stainless steel and they should hold pretty good but I don't know throwing out an idea here

I'm sure you already solved the issue with the brass ejecting. If not, I would think placing the brass deflector back 1/8th of an inch (.125) and or change the angle of the deflector. You also might need some heat shields integrated?

Try a seamless transition from back of bolt opening to deflector as one solid ramp out instead of the bolt opening, hard angle, then deflector, does that make sense?
@HoffmanTactical3 күн бұрын
Yes! This is actually what I did with later versions of the design.

Nice project, the ATF will appreciate you being into this. When you're back to HT stuff I have a thought for you. I inherited an Arisaka Type 99 and its on a sporter stock. My brother, the previous holder of this family heirloom wanted to restore it to it's Imperial Army configuration but the stock is hard to find or pricey. Can it be 3D printed?

Never understood why people say A poly upper and a poly lower aren’t equal to aluminum When 99 percent of handguns have a poly lower (zero pressure points) And the poly upper is the same thing because there is no pressure on it either The barrel is the only fixed part that’s under pressure extreme pressure and the bolt is also Now for a bolt action is a whole Different ballgame because all the recoil is absorbed in the chamber and in the bolt and in the stock So they need to be made stronger than there semi automatic AR15 cuzins 😊

Was there a video showing your techniques for modeling these custom supports? The theory behind them is excellent and well presented, but modeling them in a time efficient and precise way? I'd love to see that.

It depends so much on the part it could be a tough video to make, but I'll think about it.

@@HoffmanTactical Aah. So basically something like a non-manifold layer (sheet of paper) and then a shell modifier? (3DsMax term. But basically, makes the back faces "real" and turns it into a double sided real object.) I'm assuming that thickened surfaces is the solidworks name for the same process?

If you're still looking for a better desiccant, calcium oxide (CaO) is extremely powerful and easy to diy. It reacts exothermically with water to make calcium hydroxide. It is easy to make- just heat up limestone/ marble/ eggshells past 850°C with a blowtorch or electric heater. To regenerate it, heat it up a little past 500°C (that's how strongly it bonds to water). Also note, that a sufficiently strong desiccant will dry cold filament in a sealed container as long as it's not leaking. It's just really slow.
