This project will be my Mecca until I finish my aluminum thrower. I have the gunbox from save1pilot and a real R701 clippard to start with. Now I either have to learn how to weld or find someone to do it for cheap. Keep it gents! Awesome stuff.
Thats great news!
This is much needed craftsmanship in the community. Great job so far
i second that
I don’t know about “needed”. There seems to be a ton of talent here already.
Ooooh. I also received my tubing today. The green looks wrong though.
Wow!
::nerdgasmed::
Great work! Excellent welding!
Gah! Trying to embed YouTube video from my iPhone.
I’d love to have one of these throwers god its beautiful.
The center pair of holes need countersunk to receive the V-Hook.
There is no load on this item that will break the rosette welds. The time it took to water jet 6 sets of these and weld all of them was done in the time it would take to machine one.
Yes I will add the countersink holes later.
“Everything you are doing is bad. I want you to know this.”
Are you machining the knobs urself? Just wondering cuz im starting my aluminum thrower build.
I bought some of these and they are incorrect. I’ll change them out when I get around to it. There are people online that sell the aluminum knobs and things though.
The positioning of the small knob looks incorrect which transfers over to the hole for the green lever. I’m going to adjust it up toward the corner for the final version of the body.
Awesome. I did see franchesky having for sale a thrower knob set. Lookin good! In gonna be using this thread as my guide as I slowly get my parts
This is the difference in the position of the knobs.
