I’m still fitting. The rail needs some more grinding on the top of the ends and the grip needs to be polished. I’ll post pics tomorrow

I’m going to spend tomorrow polishing the grip.
The action received 2 brass pins epoxied in place as a mechanical means of holding the halves together, much like in knife making. Very solid.

So i’ve been busy this week experimenting with a new product, and am SUPER stoked about how its going.
about 3 months ago, while perusing facebook, an ad came up for printable rubber resin, i figured “what the hell” and ordered a litre.
It arrived just before New Years, and i got started on Monday.
So off the bat, it took some time getting my settings right, as there were no starting points i could find online as it is such a new product.
i ran different orientations and support locations
and after several failures due to inadequate support diameter, i finally got it.
Absolutely perfect! Every detail was captured.
Plus it is rubber, and authentic to the original prop.
I’m modelling the batch file right now, and then will start printing them all. I already ordered more of the product.

It does look interesting but I wonder whether the printable rubber will not become brittle and break over time?

I hate to be a spoil-sport, but that is a concern of mine as well.
Interesting remark and maybe gummy over time. I know the plan was to go with printed resin at one time
