TOO many freaks and NOT enough circuses

Me want!


That is all:)

[IMG][/IMG]

The Rest is more Pleasant to do, Lol.

Grant.

30 years since i was around machining, but if i remember correctly, isn't making threads a major pain in the bUttocks? a very exacting process?

later

If you do it often enough it gets easier. There was a time when I found Screwcutting scary.

Grant.

I would Knock out enough Brass Wing Blanks for a Dozen Wings to Attach to a Blued Steel Body. I prefer the Steel Threads for Strength.

[IMG][/IMG]

[IMG][/IMG]

Grant.

will be too cool .that is why your bits are a cut above everyone elses,always thinkin'.

TOO many freaks and NOT enough circuses

i feel another girlish scream coming on. just like the one when i got my shorty. %^)=)

Brass is beautiful. If I had one with a 2250 extension I could swap out my Art Braden cap for yours to go with all the other Stace parts on that gun. Breech, bolt and handle, trigger, safety, wide barrel band and brass rear sight all by you on my 2250.


http://crosmanairgunmods.blogspot.com/

Just got to Give it a Bit of a Polish Up and make the Spacer.

I rang about the Blueing on Friday, but the story is that the Guy that does the Blueing is waiting for more Salts, Sigh!!. I will let ya know when I get that lot back. Should be this week with a bit of Luck.

Grant.

Thanks for the update Grant. Not much you can do when he has no salts! Kind of slows down the bluing process a bit LOL.

I know you get extra busy this time of the year. When you get to them you get to them. Gotta pay the bills first!

http://crosmanairgunmods.blogspot.com/

I would say that's "Pretty... Frickin... awesome!" ... I might even say it quite loudly.

Pride of workmanship...there's nothing like it.

Gippeto

I think that and most other STACE items rate at least the:

Craftsmanship appelation!

shootski

If He comes acrossed any less freakish than the rest of us, that's only because it's tempered with a bit of acquired Wisdom... ;^) Please note that I used the word "Wisdom" NOT "Maturity"...Not nearly as Profane on this board !!! LOL.

A pivot band?

A few pictures of them in this old post. Its the Band that goes on the end of a 13XX or 22XX Pumper to support the Barrel, but also act as the Pivot Point for the Pump Arm. These are Steel ones, the original part is Plastic.
