| Hey mongo . just saw the five slot FH you made for the H&K , nice job. just one question, why does it take 36min. per slot on a cnc mill? I've been a tool& die maker/ tool designer for 23 yrs. and made my share of gun parts, all on manual equipment. I just finished a 3 prong '' vortex'' style fh for a friends Rem. PSS in .308. made from A-2 tool steel. I think the whole job took about 1 1/2 hrs. start to finish not including heat treating time, using a le blond lathe , bridgeport mill & a 5-c collet indexer. I'am not doubting your skills in any way i just dont see why it takes 36min per slot. keep up the quality work! PATRIOT ARMORY class 07 manufacturer. |
In a round-about, round-about way, that's sort of how I got the nickname of Mongo for awhile. It actually had something to do with the quote - "Mongo is just pawn in the game of life."
