Cool let's give it a go Vince and see what happens?

Got it, now just to wait for a shortened version of the hesh to finish printing and I'll give it a go.

Phil
I was going to do ammo container (shortened) according to your diagram but you did not specify the length of the container. I was going to the single and I guess if you wanted a double you could glue two singles on top of each other. What do you think?

I reckon 50mm for the shortened container, and yes I can make up multiples of to get the different sizes for the various turret stowage areas.

Do you reckon you could produce a shortened charge bag container from this photo, those holes would be around 120mm? Shortened to 50mm again or I won't get it to fit on the turret basket?

Made 3 sizes of electronics panels. Left the fine details in your capable hands.

Wonderful!

I'm having trouble with the printer right now, the bed temperature is fluctuating but I'm getting there!

Some more ammo containers.

Superb!

just sending the breech for you to peruse.

Just did this:

50 mm long. Not sure about the covers. They seem to be hinged transparent covers.

Phil, received the line drawing of the breach. As I have never seen a breach in real life I am trying to make sense of it. Hopefully I will eventually get there. Regarding the front face of the breach, how do you intend to fix it to the Armortek barrel?

I'll send you some photos of the real thing! Boy it's been a busy day, big thank you to Vince, his cad work is just great. I'm tweaking the settings on this 3d printer and it's printing better and better, you have to dive right in and change the settings until it's producing a quality product.

Any help? Keep up the good work.

Just great Stephen, they are beautiful drawings. Vince ref the triangular bin, that looks fine, I can tweak the length on the software this end.

OK. That's great. Surprised the filament crossed that gap without support.
Thanks Stephen. I can imagine it better now. Never seen one in real life so was a bit not sure about how to go about it.

Vince

p.s. Must be running out of filament by now.

Progress so far on the breach.

The pace of these CAD drawings and subsequent printing is quite breath taking. As are the results.
Great work guys.
