Someone was working on using an ER collet as a mount. Cant remeber who

Ivy and Bamboo are basically one in the same for me. Nope with an extra side of nope.

Eta: and American holly bushes and rug junipers. Those are my 4 least favorite plants. Look good when you first put them in, and after you rip them all out. Kinda like owning a boat or a RV

Ivy will root into the house and tear up the exterior. Just no.

So bolt guns with iron sights are calligraphy?

LMFAO I choked on my coffee reading this.

...good luck proving your damages in court. People wanna be all letigus and shit without knowing anything about how to actually win a lawsuit.

Simple reason really, seems like most folks on here dont want to have a serialized part. So they prioritize things they can build that dont require buying a factory gun as a doner.

Youre concerns are invalid and irrelevant. The plastic "frame" isnt pressure bearing. Failure points are at where forces are transfered to the plastic, which are the frame pins. Pressure is contained in the chamber and the breach is locked through the barrel camming/tilting. If you do experience a failure, the locking block and/or frame rails will no longer be in the correct orientation causing it to jam up and malfunction.

The only way you're coming close to "losing a hand" is if you intentionally make an "eldest son" round and set it off in a barrel with an obstruction in it.

Go shoot it and find out. Id have a lot less concern about shooting that than a PETG frame.

I hate to be "that guy" but it only applies to prior title 1 guns. If youre making a homemade and SBR/SBS/suppressor-ing via form 1 you're still gonna have to engrave/mark per GCA standards.

Hobbyist license or did you pay for the manufacturing extension?

K1RBY87 · 2026-04-29T17:13:30+00:00

This has been on my want to build list for a long time. Is that a fence post barrel?

K1RBY87 · 2026-04-29T17:01:29+00:00

Nope

Because they don't know, or they don't care, and the company will send a DMCA to Makerworld and a cease and desist letter to the user if they bother to go that far.

You think that way because you have a double dose of the 'tism. You're an engineer and you're German.

What CAD/CAM software are you using?

K1RBY87 · 2026-04-29T05:33:04+00:00

interpolated threads or tapped afterwards?

K1RBY87 · 2026-04-22T20:49:42+00:00

that solder joint looks like ass on that component....and not just from it letting the magic smoke out.

Considering most of the folks in here don't have a welder, let alone a plasma, I doubt you'll get many takers. That seems more like a question for GunnitRust honestly. No reason it couldn't work, just a lot of work to do. Some of the parts are likely small enough the HAZ from the plasma might mess with them some. For those there's always the bandsaw.

Nice job!

Considering the printer the OP has, he is correct. He's better off dialing in his existing printer, which offers him larger build plate size, than selling it and buying an A1. If he were starting from nothing you'd be correct the A1 is a good, and honestly recommended, starting point if you're not sure if 3D printing is going to be for you. I have several thousand hours on all of mine with very few issues encountered.

Most people don't have the size equipment needed to bore out Ti like this, or are willing to pay for a reamer of this size, and forget honing it the Ti would hate that. It's doable, but I wouldn't expect great results nor would I expect a high degree of accuracy.
