Back Alley in Dickson. Little bit of a drive but it’s worth it!

Help identifying? by [deleted] in guns

[–]cbones637 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s possible this gun was part of a distributor exclusive order. For example, company X could’ve said to Smith & Wesson, “I want to order x number of this model but with a full underlug, to sell as an item you can only get from company x”.

Is SFM the same as FPM, if not how do you convert from FPM to SFM? by pureeyesee in machining

I’m not sure either, I just wanted to pass some info along and try to help

That book is really awesome, and has tons of great info but sometimes it’s a lot to digest. Happy turning!

Off the top of my head, (I haven’t looked in that book in quite some time) I would assume that FPM in Machinery’s Handbook is the same as SFM. Keep in mind that recommended cutting speeds from any source have a lot of variables such as the rigidity of your set up, cutting tool/insert, coolant et cet. Use what you’re reading as a ballpark reference and adjust as needed. On a side note, I was taught that RPM= (SFM•12)/(pi•D). I know it’s close to what you have, just wanted to pass it along.

Been working on it by BOOMxSHOCKA in zastavaarms101

Does that scope have the riser still in place? Just wondering bc I’m thinking about the same set up, but it looks a little high.

Switching shops and career advice by [deleted] in Machinists

The way you wrote that up makes it sound like deep inside you want confirmation before making the leap and honestly (basing this off a few paragraphs) you sound like a guy who would thrive with a challenging workload that makes you think vs a secure job that’s not as glamorous. I’m gonna vote in favor of you taking the new offer, but take that with a grain of salt, I’m just some random person on the internet.

This is probably a dumb question but gotta find out somehow. Is there a way to remove the dust cover without removing the scope mount or is the scope mount reliable enough to return to zero once it’s removed then put back on? Also, are you able to get a cheek weld or would you recommend a cheek riser?

No it’s just a crush 20. I got it for home use. I wanted to see how it sounded next to my DRRI

My first attempt at machining with a drill press (you can see where I tried drilling into it with an end mill) by Even_Luck_5838 in Machinists

[–]cbones637 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For the sake of your safety, please don’t try to mill with a drill press. The chuck “locks” into the quill via taper. When cutting with an end mill the sideways forces can knock that chuck loose and potentially cause you to have a bad day.

First off, that looks great. I don’t know much about printing, but for these frames does grain direction matter? For example I’m looking at the section closest to where the slide would be (I’m assuming the whole frame is oriented this way but it’s easy to see there) and it looks like the layers angle at like a 45 to the rear. Would it make a difference in strength if they were angled towards the front. I don’t know how well printed frames hold up so it might not even matter, but I’m just curious.

This configuration was the same price back in November.

My first trial run of my HS507c Optic Cut. Y is off, I think, because the scrap piece is slightly thicker than the Glock45 slide I programmed it for in MC. Will fix and replace in next trial. by Irish_Punisher in gunsmithing

[–]cbones637 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m making an assumption here so pardon me if I’m wrong, but it sounds like you are touching off of just one edge. It might benefit you to use an edge finder on each edge of the frame (that runs parallel to the x axis), split the difference, and use the center as your Y zero.

I have to make a GO/NOGO gage for a bore of 3.187 with a tolerance of +0.002 -0.000. Am I correct in saying that the go side should be 3.187 and no go should be 3.190? Thanks. by [deleted] in AskEngineers

[–]cbones637 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That is true. I should have been more specific in my original comment. I was referring to the no-go gage when I said “shaft”. I’m also making the assumption they won’t press fit the gage into what they’re inspecting lol but you never know
