    As far as I know there aren't any cad files for a Xmag floating around online. And as always verify everything on a file you find online.

    Ive got one half in cad but havent gotten back to it and wont for some time.

    I do not. I was trying to find it also to finish my manik-e-mag modules. No luck as of yet.

    The original CAD is owned by the AGDE guys.

    John & Jackie Sosta along with John Bonich worked on the designs for the modular aluminum body. (Which they own the patents btw) Later, Simon "Manike" Stevens worked on the CnC version of the Xmag. AO liked the CnC design so much Tom Kaye decided to work with AGDE and create a run of 400ish guns.

    I would try to contact either John about it. I really doubt they want their designs floating out online for anyone to make though.

    i guess i'll try to find one of these peeps then... this file was for Cliff "CS900" from PbMetalmods, he says if i can get him the CAD it will make it easier (cheaper) for the custom work i'm getting done

    Bunny would you have contact info???

    I'm actually interested in the CAD as well so I will do my best to find it. I have 2 unfinished Euro Slugs that need it.

    I could model it up for you but it wouldn't be free. I see several (or more) hours of measuring & modeling there. Then a few hours double & triple checking everything.

    Also DO NOT take files you find from the internet and use them without checking them. Ive looked at many files posted all over and found that a large amount are not correct. Often close but not correct. Last thing you want it to find that out while cutting a xmag.

    I check everything even when it comes from trusted sources.

    For sure, personally I could easily burn up at least 2 days engineering that, but I tend to be pretty picky on getting everything exact.
    I agree on the free files floating around, I've gone over a few with sad results. I generally find it best just to start from scratch.

    that's what im doing with all my parts
    I have a way less expensive way to make prototypes, then most here on the forum.
    so I guess im lucky in that aspect.

    I had a feeling this would be the case...

    Due to recent events I might not be able to go through any projects for a while, I'm feeling lost I guess

    That's all retaliative, my prototypes cost me little in monetary terms too.

    We never had the cad models over here. Sosta and Simon did all of that in England.

    Lol, no worries. But yea, paying a shop to do it for you is pricey, if you own the shop and are making parts for yourself it's a different ball game.
