    Gunsmithing Making an anti-fatigue platform for lathe/mill...

    You're a hoot Gunny! Smok'em if you got 'em. Wish I was sawed off enough to need a platform.

    Is anyone else worried?

    It saddens me to say it but I believe we are past the point. People are too busy with their Ipads, Iphones, computer games and such.(some even have jobs) Was at a bud's in his shop/garage and his wife sent him a text from the living room! ;-) Power to those that can afford to spend time...

    Gunsmithing Inletting for DBM

    I'm not familiar with Atlasworks but doing Surgeon and Badger I just precut the pillars .005" long and run the program. Biggest pain is setting them up. The holes never line up ;-)

    Gunsmithing Darex 90 help

    I'm not sure what model mine is but it looks like the 90 on their site. 3/16" plate Slots are .265" Radius looks like 2.5" centers of the slots are 7/8" at the farthest point. Guess you can base that off your hole spacing. Let me know if you need more info. ;-)

    Gunsmithing The M700 M40 Clip Slotted Optic Base

    Looks good Chad. Glad to see you are putting the machine to work. Is it my eyes or is the block to go in the clip slot wide and needs to be fitted?

    The Turd is Back ;-)

    It's funny how you yanks instinctively go off when someone touches a nerve ;-) Ever notice the uncanny resemblance a maggot has to a turd? I will hazard a guess and say that you don't! My bet is you look more like a basketball with 5 warts ;-) That guy is one badass with a knife!

    Gunsmithing My take on inboard and outboard spiders

    I like your idea of the chuck handle. I may try to make one and incorporate a key to tighten it. Also you might want to check out jonaddis's ? fixture to hold actions in the "how do they do it" thread. Pretty slick! ;-)

    Gunsmithing Rem 700 extractor type

    Rest assured, I've made more mistakes than the average guy has made attempts! ;-) Fortunately for me, I'm able to fix most of 'em. I am by no means bashing PT&G. Dave is a Great guy. His company and products are fantastic in the grand scheme. With the mentality of youth today it's a wonder he...

    Gunsmithing Advice Requested - Installing PTG DBM on a McM Htg stock

    I agree with all. The sensible thing to do is send it to someone set up to machine it. However, I suspect the answer RedRyder is looking for is this. Obviously you have the ability or you wouldn't be posting. I tend to prefer to do things myself instead of paying someone to do it for me. The...

    Gunsmithing Rem 700 extractor type

    Love the opinions here. Lots of good and bad to say about all. I beg to disagree with the Sako naysayers. It does create a chink in the armor like Militarybuilt says but if you reach that point, you shoulda stayed in bed that day ;-) I've never had a problem making them work with a factory dia...

    The Turd is Back ;-)

    Thanks shank. It's good to be back ;-) Don't think it would do me much good to read the Constitution. You know how us ignorant mofo's are. Even if I could grasp the meaning I would likely form my own opinion. Kinda like saul alinsky in reverse! ;-)

    Gunsmithing Why put bushings on a Remington bolt?

    This is an option I came up with that may be the best of all worlds and comes with a bonus. Pads leave plenty of running room for dirt but remove all movement when locked up. Bonus is the downward pressure of a couple of thou help offset the misalignment of the cartridge caused by...

    The Turd is Back ;-)

    Much to the dismay of many, I survived another temp revocation of my 1st amendment rights relatively unscathed ;-) Thanks Frank From now on, no more politics for me. I'm going to TRY to stick to kiddie pool topics like "who can inlet dbm bottom metal" or "need gunsmith in ________________...
