Making that Bullet Collator

[TylerR]

Just posted an update. I added a main body for the JGY-370 motor. The center hole has been enlarged to 15mm to account for the various shaft coupler options people are using.
I also added the rest of the drop tubes. 6, 8, 9, 10, 12 and 13mm are now in there.

I do have my doubts about the smaller motor working with the larger feeder. I will be interested to see the results when someone tries it out.

I just printed out a new 45 acp brass plate with the pivots and it came out perfect. Really makes the process a lot easier.

I increased the height of the wall for the main body by 1". It has been posted.

For anyone interested.

Tyler, printed your adjustable mount, can you give me pointers on what you did with it to get it to stay clamped so you can adjust the angle?

[TylerR]

I used a 5/8" bolt, two washers and a nut.

Any chance you can post a pic of it installed? There is a pretty good size gap between the base and post mount and I don’t want to break the pla.

Not really sure how this is going to help but here you go. Mine fit up pretty tight. Did you change the scaling when printing? If there is excessive space maybe try adding a washer.

Thank you. I changed the scaling to be taller but not wider. I will ad a washer on the inside of each side and then one on both ends to see if it helps. Thank you!

I did a thing today. I could not find an adapter for the JGY-370 motor. So I made one with my hobby lathe. I am by no means a machinist. Actually I am a chef by trade. But had a little bit of time today. This will work with the original pieces unmodified. Slips right over the shaft on the motor.

I posted a few changes to the drop tubes for anyone looking to print them.

Hi Ed,

You have to go back to the post on page 44 and click the link. Every time I replace the file google generates a new link. I kind of like it that way anyway.

What is everyone using for the down springs? Now that DAA will not sell them to anyone?

[Pro2A4life]

DAA still sells them:

Here is my problem, I am in Canada and DAA will not sell them to me. The other 3 places don't ship to Canada with out it costing me my first born. I was wondering if anyone has found a place in China to get these?

Hi,
I ordered these from AliExpress (good link.) Don't let the term "Express" fool you...I ordered these back in April, and the expected delivery is in July. I already have a working set up, and these are for backup, so the delay is not a problem. I just wanted you to be aware so if you're in a hurry, you might have to look elsewhere.

Sorry,
I thought it brought up the product page. Here's a link that should work.

That is a nice find Ed. I spent a lot of time searching for different diameter springs when I was first looking for them.
