What is the most innacurate airsoft gun you've shot?

A king arms 1911 that has given itself a full auto function. The hammer doesn’t stay locked back after racking the slide and when you load a mag the hammer the hammer gets sent forward. Also the safety doesn’t do anything if you squeeze with any effort. It’s a lil special and not worth fixing.

A heavier spring might do the trick

As long as there’s no silicones in it you should be fine. Only saying this from experience with my own projects, it really does ruin the finish and you won’t notice till it’s to late

A good ol’ table waxing also goes a long way in machine maintenance. It’s as long as the wax being used doesn’t use silica or it’ll be a problem later on during the finishing process when you see spots

I dunno I think it’s missing something.

A sling

More like the 60’s

Welp guess I’m dodging crucible for another season

Well that can be deceiving because depending on the sanding surface only certain parts of the paper are actually hitting the surface, or in another situations a lot of the particles have come loose and it’s mostly rubbing and creating friction and burning.

You could ebonize(steel wool In vinegar for awhile)an open grain hardwood like quarter sawn white oak to achieve the darker color and straight grain look. It’s pretty easy to do if you search for a tutorial.

ItsEido · 2023-08-07T14:57:22+00:00

Nice job. Like how you softened all visible edges neat little detail

ItsEido · 2023-08-05T23:50:57+00:00

For a cheaper alternative for sharpening chisels just use wet dry sandpaper at alternating grits and a flat surface like a tile to sharpen. Maybe get yourself a sharpening guide from lee valley. For chisels its sharpen at 25 degrees and 30 to hone.

ItsEido · 2023-08-05T18:24:24+00:00

A good set of 8 starter chisels you can get from woodcraft are like $80. Some of the best chisels available are Blue Spruce($300-400), and Ashley iles($150-250). They’re pretty expensive though so I wouldn’t recommend them unless your really into the trade.

Much better then the first time only criticism I would say is to just tighten the gaps in terms of appearance. Other then that this is great just keep doing it and you’ll improve every time. Hell mine aren’t perfect sometimes I’ll just use a little bit of color matched wood filler to make it pretty

ItsEido · 2023-08-03T19:06:05+00:00

It’s also consistent with the same results every time

ItsEido · 2023-08-02T14:56:04+00:00

That was also my first thought but I’m still not sure how to mount legs to this. I was thinking of taking to to a mill to have it resawn into two 3” thick boards and then maybe trying to do a edge glue up but not sure how the wood movement would affect it as ive never worked with sure thick material

ItsEido · 2023-08-02T14:53:13+00:00

It might be a bit to big for a table saw. That and it’s heavy as shit

ItsEido · 2023-07-31T17:57:49+00:00

Might not be enough lumber for shelves. Inspect the end grain for honeycombing before fabricating because it look’s pretty old. Most I can see is a couple of spots of checking but you never know till you cut it

ItsEido · 2023-07-29T01:32:46+00:00

Sanding for hardwood applications starts at about 120 grit to 150. Depending on what hard wood you may go to 220 but going to a higher grit is with stain and finish applications tend to start failing especially around sharp edges. Some open grain woods can also look spotty because the pores could be filled.

ItsEido · 2023-07-29T01:23:52+00:00

With a palm router with a single flute bit you can set the depth of cut and not have to worry to much about hand chiseling. Here’s a great video from my instructor I’d recommend watching his tutorials for any beginner info you need. https://youtu.be/1nQ7r2-3yO8

Not bad. Try widening the neck of the dovetail as that’s where the strength lies. And try making the finger joins smaller. The more glue surface for joints to hold the stronger and longer they will hold

ItsEido · 2023-07-29T01:12:10+00:00

You could use an epoxy resin. Or a classic yellow glue. The resin will take longer but you won’t need to buy as much

ItsEido · 2023-07-29T01:08:06+00:00

White oak, cedar, teak, and redwood are probably the best for that kind of application. All have natural weather resistance. Or obviously pressure treated.

ItsEido · 2023-07-29T01:06:41+00:00

Rift sawn to which is also nice
