    Yeah I hear ya I'm trying to "glove" those contours.
    Different color
    Just for the ones who don't like the red.
    It I'm testing a print right now to see if I can get the fillets right.

      i just noticed that the angle of the rear clip looks like it's almost identical to the angle of the front body cut. It'd be only cosmetic, but it might be cool to make the front edge also follow the same contour, kinda like the old shark gill sight rails.

      Good luck gloving the contours. That looks like a not so easy task, given the multiple angles of fillet going on there. Do you have a CAD file for a ULE body you could pull them off?

      Where's the 3D scanner when we need it...

        yeah a "GOOD" 3D scanner would help a lot.

        no I do not have a ULE body with the contours. I have my body designs, but not one with the ULE contours.

          the 3D printer has craped the bed. im working on getting it fixed.
          but I have no idea why it has done what it is doing.
          this may be a fatal blow. not sure yet.

            Oh man......we were so close

            I hope the problem is only temporary, seems like you mentioned getting this printer not too long ago.

            I would enjoy two for ULE bodies, although haven't decided cram jam vs 10 rd tubes. I hope you can fix the printer.

              working on it more tommorw.
              I hope I can fix it, if not I have new nozzles coming in, so that should fix it.

              its a clog, just no support on how to fix this more than what I have found.

              the replacement nozzle should fix it.
              here is hoping.

                  I mocked up the mag I was going use a powerfeed version on. It was at that time I realized it wouldn't work. My feed hole on the body is on the right side, same side as the valve air port. it wouldn't have clearance for the cram and jam.

                  So, I'll have to do this on a ULE body after all. Please move my purchase intent from powerfeed style to ULE style.

                  thanks

                    I could always angle the tube up instead of parallel with the body?

                      Reverse valve?

                      Also, I would be interested in one for ULE as well if its available in black. Maybe red, but black definitely.

                        yeah reverse valve was my thought too.
                        I just ordered some black material
                        working on the final design. to get the fillets worked out around the feed hole.

                        this way I can be more ready when the printer is fixed.

                          no thanks, I prefer it parallel with body.

                            maybe I can design something to tailor to what you need
                            the base design is done.

                              maybe something like your snap on with a tiny bit of powerfeed action would work? that way you could bring the horizontal feed back to right on top, even if it dropped into a cut powerfeed body.

                                Thanks for the offer to design something specific.
                                But, I'm good with what you got going on so far. I'll continue to monitor your progress.
                                If you still need a beta tester, I'll be out at the field more often now, so I could report results in a timely manner.
