    Sooo...a little custom work?

    Hello there...I have a small project I would very much like to finish, it's quite a way from being done but I figured here would be the best place to start.

    I recently got this body:






    ...which is still fairly rough and needs to be polished and finished up a bit, but the other problem is that it has no matching front/back blocks to go with it.

    I was wondering if maybe Simon or someone else with some decent CAD knowledge could make me a set of matching blocks to go with this beauty. It also needs to have the hammer lug hole drilled through the top tube which shouldn't be too difficult ;-)

    once I have that done it's all heading to FX Anodizing for a fancy color...

    Whoa, a raw Wraith! I'm jealous

    I can't remember his name but the guy over at Acid Customs has done Eclipse backblocks for some of the guys on CustomCockers.

    John Huxham is the guy from ACID, I have loved his work ever since he did the red ACID cocker years ago...but I'm trying to not have to ship it to Australia...

    The barrel thread area is thin, I wouldn't like to fall on this one. I have another body that belongs to Dan Bacci that was a mill mistake where it cut through the barrel area and valve chamber but was JB Welded back together. This one is going to be a mechanical I think...probably want to put an eclipse hinge on it or maybe a Jackal that I have...or maybe a very nice milled out benchmark.....hmm.

    blocks first though!

    PM me I may be able to help with the CAD end of stuff.

    Ive design the Ripper Automag, Phoenix Automag, Shockwave Automag. As well as other things.
    I would need you to send the body to get the correct dimensions and such.

    Looks like a cool project, I bet Keith can get you hooked up nicely. I look forward to seeing it when it's done

    I think I'm safe to assume that Scott brought Keith here...heh

    I'll send you a message and we can go from there I assume Thanks guys! I'll keep this updated as the (probably slow) progress occurs.
