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

That looks killer! Trying to hold back the excitement and be an adult about this, but I can't freakin' wait to put my Bespin Han blaster together!!
 
I can't remember if I got this new scope bracket or not to update my old one, but I feel like I should've hahaha.

Great work, the anticipation is building!
 
I was going to set up a Hoth Bracket test subject but the hardware is tougher to pin down then I expected

I found 3 sizes that are possible

2 Standard sizes #4 & #6 and a metric size M3

In my opinion I think it is an M3 because the #6 looks too large but the allen socket in the #4 looks too small. The M3 has the smaller head with the bigger allen socket hole so I think that’s the best option for this bracket

There is a #5 bolt but they are very rare and I have to special order them so I doubt that would have been used.


Please post your opinion below








 
The holes in both my real thorens discs are not on point so the real screws may hang over the inside edge a bit.

They shouldn't hang over the outside edge at all though. Do the M3s?
I'm voting for the M3s too, as long as the only hang over the inside edge

I'm thinking #4 too... but I'm torn.

Are those tests on a real disc or the replica?

I must say it's a very very close call. I can't decide for the life of me and at this blurry resolution it's near impossible to measure accurately.

This blaster was built in the USA though wasn't it? USA = #4, UK = M3.
 
I'm pretty sure it as the M3

In the photo the center allen socket on the #4 looks a lot bigger then in person.

When I just look at the bolts in person the M3 looks like it is the most correct.

Great comparison pictures.

For me, 2 out of 3 of the M3's look correct in the images, so I'm blaming the lighting for making that top M3's socket look a bit big, the lower two look very accurate.

M3 for me.
