I made a lot of progress on my project. I'm linking to the post on the air gun machining forum so that I don't have to rewrite the text and upload all the photos again.

I'm almost ready to hang out my shingle and start making custom bigbore air guns. I'll probably start by advertising here until I get my own website up and running. I'll also offer misc. services such as roof repair, electrical work, heater repair(seasonal) and custom trailer interiors.

Please do not interpret this to mean I am competing with Gary, I absolutely REFUSE to sand anything!

Looks nice Lon. Good job.

As for your business model ... pc. of free advice: make everything identical. The repetition will bore your brain to jello ... but the alternative is the flowering bouquet of individual drawings, boxes, bins, tubs, and tubes full of one off expressions of creativity. I must walk outside to change a thought. No room in the shop.

no one would do a complete run of prototypes and never do a run of the finished article ,,,,, would they ?????

I've completed the construction and started testing.

I did a sound check this morning:
