Does Benchy frame w/ Wings fit Micromag?

[skyguy]

I just picked up a vert feed micromag body and need a frame. Will a benchmark frame w/ wings fit it, or only the wingless?

Thanks,
Sky

yes, micros are designed for winged frames, well cept the 09 version

Actually, Micro2000s are designed with a wingless frame in mind... That's why they accept emag lowers without any "slop" space that would otherwise be filled by wings. I will check and update this post, but I think that your body will not accept a winged frame.

I just double checked... The vertfeed Micromag (Micro2000) will not fit a winged AGD or winged Powerlyte frame.

I currently have a wingless R/T style Powerlyte frame on my Micro2000 and the edges line up prefectly, which is why I doubted that a winged frame would fit. That said, wingless frames are easy to come by, and wings are easily milled (though I advise against it since some winged frames aren't as easy to find as they once were).

Thankfully, most new(er) frames are wingless.

ah my bad, from the shape of the bottom i assumed it was like the previous generations (looking at that pic it does look noticably wider on bottom tho)

Good to know, thanks.

I knew it wasn't exactly the same, but like you I looked and thought "But... That really is close..." so it was worth checking for all 3 of our sakes.
