Limited Run RUN CLOSED * DL-44 ESB Blaster Machined Parts Set * RUN CLOSED

Depending on which photo you look at, and even its orientation, it can change your opinion. But I agree that the "006" image looks good :)

(these images from our discussions)

Just wanted to echo other peoples 'thanks' for all Boba's hard work on this run .. again if it wasn't for the few people that actually take on the hassle of dealing with us "public" and doing a run, I wouldn't be able to own any of these "highly accurate" replicas, and all we'd be doing is talking.

..and lets face it we're on a public forum here

Never-mind, just re-read the first post and see it there. :thumbsup Appreciate your work on this BobaDebt.

A lot of members are posting similar thought so I just selectively quoted one person as a way to respond to everyone.




new drawing looks great!

This isn't a new drawing. It’s actually one of several I created for the original parts thread.

The discussion started on Post 174 of this thread http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=230129&page=5

In post 208 I put the discussion on the back burner because Scott was going to post additional info and make some samples.

I purchased a disk from Scott and it had the 50/50 split so I went with that and posted the info to the first post of this thread




I'm willing to yield to group consensus, unless there is additional cost then I vote leave it.


I can’t remember if I made this decision unilaterally after I received Scott’s disk or if it was via email vote but if there are any costs associated with changing the drawings and code I will eat them.

I doubt the shop will do that since they had to halt production on this part and it is fairly simple to draw and code.



I know it was brought up already, and again has nothing to do with the current topic, but I wanted to throw out a few photos that I took of My MR Han blaster before I sold it. Shown are some of the incorrect details.

Coincidently that disk design is what my first ESB Active Project came up with.


Here is a picture of the parts from that project

I´m sorry, but after the ANH parts debacle i´m no longer interessed in posting any what or why, to improve other peoples sales.

Once i thought it´s about sharing, but i learned that most people hold back their "super secret infos", and are majorly interested in getting sales numbers. Or maybe to feel more special......


I would see it different if every outcome/measurements from such a group effect would be completely displayed to the community that helped to get them - but i don´t see that happen. It´s usually more "let us all work on it - and then i start a run" thing.


I hope you don't seriously think that this applies to me or my Active Projects.

The transparency of my projects is unparalleled on this forum and was unprecedented when I first joined the RPF in 1999.

I can not post the work product of my shop but I provide enough general dimensions that people like you can figure the rest out.





What's 006? Did you guys get an email? I didn't get one. Was it posted here?


I sent an email and posted it here. Email me at bobadebt@ec.rr.com with your current email address and I will make sure you're in the group.

No, off course not, don´t worry. I´m sorry if you felt it was directed towards you.

It was more a general statement regarding why i don´t take part anymore on such "community efforts".

Oh, ok.

I was about to book a flight to Germany so I could beat you a sock full of brass M-19 scopes


But it's all good now :)
 
The new drawing looks good. My prototype is Generally how I think it should look except slight bottom half needing to be slightly thicker. Very slightly.

Again we're all just guessing at this point. I made my best guess. I think I got the general look and angles pretty decent.
 
Scott, can you stop by the other thread and look at Danns second Sample. It is only .002 off from my drawing and it looks too thick.

Sorry to get off track on the knob subject, but I have been looking at it on my wall and decided to scan it tonight. It's from my OP 11x14 photo. My apologies if it has been posted previously. From looking closely as possible at this photo I see one of this distributor pieces, but I do not see anything covering the Mauser logo. That doesn't mean something didn't fall off though.

another rare photo of R2 switches on his skirt!
 
I think the 006 drawing looks good. Proper knurling on it will complete the look. It does seem to be a fairly thick part in the reference photos (thicker than many older replicas for sure), so I think those numbers are reasonable.

Thanks for all your hard work on this project!
 
Great work and effort Bobba, I am grateful, I trust in the 'Force" of the RPF. Scott has a great eye for the detail and has my respect from past discussions on other parts also.

I am sure I will be happy with the outcome of this project, and 100% accuracy is almost impossible from photos, they can be very decieving at times.
