        lines up great.
        need to modify the mating surfaces that the top shell sits to the bottom.
        the surfaces arnt totally flat.
        which makes sense dye wouldn't want things easy.
        but i do have a contour that fits.
        just small tweeks and ill move from there.
        once its solid then ill start the full shell contour and then the position of the tube to the box rotor internals.

        it looks good.
        very pleased.

              Same. I'm trying to up on this consistently. It's just hard.

                        Wouldn't it be easier just to make both halves and only worry about the specs to make the mechanical parts fit?

                          not sure what you mean? oh fit the rotor guts to my loader design?
                          i lose the nylon premade proven bottom of the rotor if i do that.
                          but yes i could go that direction.
                          its a direction this could go if i need to.
                          dont really want to.

                          but who knows maybe that is the direction the design goes on this.
                          and just my opinion but for me personally they would both be on the same scale of ease to design.

                          my biggest difficulty now and i know you get this as well, but finding the time is rough.

                              Yea, just design the upper and lower halves to your spec so when you print the shells they fit together perfectly. Leave out the features you dont need like the original feedneck on the bottom (And whatever else, I never looked at it, but you would know) You could even design it to use a standard Warpfeed bracket if you wanted. The only spec you need to worry about would be the fitting of the internals, design the rest to your spec and it will make it MUCH easier in my opinion. I would imagine your burning some design and printing time trying to replicate it perfectly (As would be expected) all that effort goes away if you just redesign it.

                              I have another idea I'll share in a PM if you decide to go this route.
