I need info as well.
This is the big thread, so to clarify: I can get a hybrid direct thread adapter and end caps from him in titanium and significantly cheaper than the sico parts correct? |

Hi- Any chance I could get the machinist's contact info? I'd really like to get an asr blast shield or 2 when he starts making them. My 8" 300 blkout is crazy loud b/c I'm using the asr brake to preserve the can. My 12.5" 5.56 isn't nearly as bad. I saw someone say that SiCo is really good about working with people that wear out their baffles, but I'd like to preserve it for a shtf situation where that wouldn't be an option. Thank you!

Created an account after finding this thread. Please PM contact and ordering details @BigWaylon. I'm in need of a 30 cal endcap and 5/8x24 direct thread mount.
And of course in the new black finish he's using. Originally Posted By BigWaylon:

You're welcome to ask him that question when you contact him. |

Update from the machinist.
"The end caps are $45 each shipped and the direct thread adapters are $70 each shipped. I am making more end cap and they should be back from getting coated in a couple of weeks. The DT mount is in stock." His response about tool compatibility. "The end cap was designed to work with the 3 pin wrench for the sakar and omega." |

Anybody have a good idea how to break red loctite loose on the threads? I have a heatgun and a vice available. Heatgun can get up to 480F. I was thinking about putting a wet rag around the steel parts, and apply the heat directly to the threaded part to try to expand the titanium part while keeping the steel part from expanding.

Just got my hybrid in today. Just curious if there is an appreciable difference when using a 5.56. 308, or 9mm end cap as compared to the factory 46 endcap? Which are worth buying?

Got a reply back: Right now I am turning a 300lb piece into a 20lb piece. I will have about a week of programing and then another week of machining to make that one part. I started making more 3lug wrenches Friday should have them done this week. I have a lot of custom work to do and feel bad for taking so long to get things complete. And yes, I told him I needed before & after pics of whatever the current project is. 
As far as parts you may be keeping an eye out for, he said: I still want to do the blast shield. I have worked every day since the middle of April on this project for work. It is going on the airplane Thursday morning to California to race this weekend. Looks like I will not go home until Thursday. I will have pictures for you when it is done. I plan on getting back to finishing some custom projects next week and will see what I can do with making YHM mounts and the blast shields after that. Been talking about making the YHM and shield for the last two years now, time fly's by to quick. I know people have give up on me and just want to say i'm sorry for not being able to complete orders. So, I know y'all have been happy with the Omega/Hybrid compatible parts, the 3-lug wrenches, and probably some one-off stuff...but sounds like more to come. |

I just had visions of titanium parts for my Z. But I can't afford to go down that rabbit hole.
As for the Omega mounts and such I don't mind waiting for quality I can afford. |

Best I recall he ended up being charged per piece, not per batch, so he doesn't have to wait and send hundreds at a time. |
