    Making Your Own Slug - Of Elves and Pixie Dust

    Alright, say I have a CAD drawing, a 3-D model, and am ready to go shopping for a machine shop (or am lucky enough to have someone offer their services )

    Can someone tell me what the oft cited impossible to acheive tolerance on Mag bodies is?

    A little less of the sarcasm and a little more data than in the slug thread would be appreciated.

    We DID license slugs to two companies and neither one got them right. Sure, EVERYONE can make a part to the right tollerances

    So, what was wrong with those attempts? Which tolerance was wrong?

    I was wondering the same thing I was planning to machine my own body this fall in my cam class but I don't want to mess up my Aluminum doing it.
