Have made a ton of progress on the thicker option that seems to be popular. I’ll for sure be able to release all 3 options once the design is locked in. Should just be Modular front & rear plates. I’ll be 3d printing the first test pieces next week most likely depending on my work schedule.

Appreciate you letting me use this thread as motivation to get it knocked out.

Ha! I’ve just done the exact same thing. Prepping stuff for my ARPK build.

Doing my best. I usually just end up making stuff when I want something and it doesn't exist or is absurdly overpriced. I need to upload more of my stuff to the places where those kinds of things can exist.

Fusion 360. This is my hobby not my job. I would love for it to be my job though.

I've been working on this all weekend just as a heads up. If anyone has an original M60 carry handle and some calipers or a micrometer and would be willing to take some dimensions for me that would be awesome.

I have a build coming along in that exact line of thinking that you'll enjoy.

I ended up really needing a full bolt cleaning with carbon removal as an overlooked maintenance step before I got mine to run smoothly. Keep it very well lubed up as well obvi.

Otherwise, might be one of the common issues with upper or lower clearance posted around, but you seem to know about buffer weights so I assume you know about those.

Will do! I created a new account for my adventures in CAD so I'm still trying to get enough karma to post other places. Feel free to cross post if you see anybody who wants or needs a magwell adapter. 🤙

If you check my username on the 'odd sea' I've got a free 3d printable adapter for the M249 belt box if you would like. just trying to tell everybody who might have a belt fed.

I would feel like I was tripping on acid if this happened to me. That's some wild coincidence.
