After so many years trying to complete this Chewie Bowcaster prop for my personal collection, looking for parts, doing research, looking for collectors and members that offered and did some of the parts but other parts were missing and no clue where to get them, I have decided to go further and produce a CNC aluminum frame based on the Horton Safari Magnum. Thanks to Jawajawa827 (Timmy) who produced the rest of parts needed to complete my build and other members builds, I decided to 3D scan the Horton Safari Magnum crossbow and the same time I did the 3D Scan for The Force Awakens Bowcaster, which is here at the RPF in another interest thread. The crossbow frame, bow and trigger will be made of aluminum in a 3 Axis CNC machine. The spheres and rear clip for the sling/strap will be made of stainless steel, and I will also offer all the knobs and discs, some of them made of spincast pewter and other out of urethane resin and will come with all the accurate screws. An aluminum plate where the knobs and discs are attached will also be included and will be designed after the first aluminum frame is made. All these parts will come in kit unpainted. Jawajawa827 will do a parallel run for the remaining parts which will be the scope mount, the barrel with block, brackets and front sight, cleat and the coil wires that goes on the sides. I will put together a Bowcaster all assembled with all the parts attached painted and unpainted including Jawajawa827 parts for reference. Here are some pictures of the 3D CAD files and some of the parts. People interested please ad your names. I still don't have a price jet. One of my local machine shops in town will do these parts for me so it doesn't interfere with the other two projects that are being made in another machine shop.
Here is Jawajawa827 thread: Limited Run - Bowcaster Parts Run (Front Sight, Barrel Mount, Barrel Support/Hinge, Trigger Cover, Scope Mount, and More)
Thank you in advance,
