Its A Beast

[Bill Gruby]

Before this night is over we should have reached square one, the acquisition of the prints. The prints are being sent to me in PDF format via my email. Never give up hope, ever.

I have now got more than enough info to begin the process of drawing the prints for this project. I joined Bench Rest Central and those guys were and still are very helpful. I have already started the prints for the base and windage adjustment.

Yea, this type of project might be a bit much for my 'just wing it' style. One of these days I'll have to learn drafting in the digital age...

I don't do the CAD thing Bill, I am a pencil pusher for my prints.

Cool...then I don't feel to bad about considering a drafting table and protractor.

 

[Bill Gruby]

You won't hear me say no. I have all of that and a drafting machine.

The initial prints are completed. I an taking them to a Professional Gunsmith as soon as I post this. Do I have any doubts, absolutely none. If he gives them the OK anew thread will be started.

What kind of feedback are you looking for from the gunsmith?

 

[Bill Gruby]

Bill-- Safety issues for the most part and some strength places. I think I covered all the basesd but a second professional opinion never hurts.

I spent an hour or two with the Pro. He is satisfied nothing was overlooked. He gave this project his OK. He was extremely thorough and had some questions. I was able to answer them all. We have a go.

This will be the last post about the 'Mark I' in this thread. Time is coming for a dedicated thread.
