Damit I ment 3/8th Drill!!!. Too much thinking fuzzed up my brain..Originally Posted by huntnman
Can't wait to send payment. I know once that is done my AS/2 (Absolutely Superior / Automatic Sizer) will be prepping for its long journey to US(me). Don't rush every day this package is sounding better.I hope the 5/8'' drill is only needed to mount to bench, isn't that hole approximately the size of a 62 caliber muskets bore?

Did metrics get you screwed up again?
Har Har if it had been metric there would have been no confusion

Its the Queens birthday long weekend here in AU, and Wife and I have taken off north for the 3 day break. Was hard to walk away from the shed and work I was doing, but now I am sitting under canvas awning out in the country I am glad I came.
We are visiting friends in a country town 200 mile north of Brisbane.
The fact that he is the president of the local gun range and invited us up to shoot for the weekend had nothing to do with my decision to come, honest!!.

Enjoy! We all can use a break from time to time.
I do love watching genius in action, keep up the good work.
You aren't out at Dalby for the IPSC Nationals??
Hooroo.
Regards, Trevor.
Australia
no Trev,headed up to Gympie for the weekend, the have western action match on tommorow, they always fun to watch. Besides i use a blackhawk leg holster and IPSC nerds dont like them.

As I do not load for 222/223/224 would someone be so kind as to drill a 1/4" hole in some scrap wood and check for cast fit please, it needs to drop in easy with enough fee space to allow for small casting irregulatities, but at the same time keep the cast upright.
BTW I am back from the holiday break...

Hope you enjoyed your holiday. Did you get to do much shooting or was it more of a spectator sport this trip?
shooting, just for giggles we spent 6 hours on the 90meter rifle range, with just our handguns.. quite interesting

Got to love AusPost, I see a few of the options show 20kg, could you package 2 or 3 together and get one of the guys in the US to forward them. Might save everyone a bit on postage cost if its doable.
That 20kg means that service will only cater to that amount as a maximum, not that it will take up to 20kg for that cost..
I think it stinks personally.. The price of postage for anything is rediculous, UPS in AU quoted me $375 for the 6-6.5kg package... I know everyone works for a living, but near $400 from UPS.. Really??
I think the 2 week boat trip option is the best..
On a less stressful Note, I 99% finnished another today.. just got to make the slides, they are a PITA to machine, there is a cloud, not unlike candy-floss every time I cut a few thou of thickness off the slide to make it a nice fit... I can tell you a mans workshop is NOT supposed to look fluffy inside!

SSG Bob,
your 1st machine is finished and in its box, the second is done except for the slides, slides are cut and faced just need to be tweeked to fit. The 2nd unit has all 3 slides. It will be finished tomorrow.
Finister
Yours is done and in box, Blue + the 2 slides. Tested and packed.
Huntnman,
Yours is done in the box, tested with the +2 slides.
Redwoode,
your frame was painted today and is drying haven't made the slides for your yet.
Pretzelxx
your frame is done, waiting for arrival of some more ball fittings, which should be here Thursday.
I *think* I have that all correct, if I have missed something please let me know ASAP.
Sorry it has taken a week longer than I thought, but I am on these everyday to catch up. The assembly and testing takes a fair bit of time, but is nessesary to ensure you have zero problems.
Mike.
All units come with the 9mm/357/38 slide at standard, so when I say +2 slides I mean the small and the large slide. If no one else wants one I should have them all done by weeks end.
Don't worry about life, no-one gets out alive.
Does that include every thing from .224-.452? Would that be 3 slides?
Small Slide = 1/4" hole does up to .2500
STD slide = 25/64" hole does up to .3906
Large Slide = 13.5mm hole does up to .5310
Those should cover all that is required, the only other thing I can probably do is make a Blank Slide, with just a pilot hole where the casts drop, and you drill to your own needs.
You will have to die grind a wipe ramp from the hole to help unload the second cast waiting to be sized. Not as complicated as it sounds but required.
Don't worry about life, no-one gets out alive.
Do you have a photo of the wipe ramp?
Tried to but white on white has no detail, it basically is a area just before the hole that starts of the width of the hole and tapers to a point towards the drop tube.
It is not hard to make one and the ramp on the slide that comes with the feeder will show you what's nessesary

Sounds similar to a flute on a revolver cylinder but changes depth too?
YES! exactly, and yes it is deeper at the hole end and tapers up to the surface of the slide.
