ULE Body with snap on stock class feed tube?

[maverick13]

Nice work, man

[knownothingmags]

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

I home the problem is only temperary, 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.

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.

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.

[knownothingmags]

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.

[knownothingmags]

yeah
but there is a fine balance in strength....
meaning more taper the less the circle wants to stay a circle around the body.

but I sure can see what I can do.

my different material after it is left to sit get super strong im very impressed so I may take this design to its limits tomorrow and see how stiff it actually stays around the body.

So that they are tapered and get thinner as the reach the bottom of the body.

[knownothingmags]

Hard to say, I think the color is messing with me! lol. Seriously though, if it works... Is it possible to taper the "legs" so that they run back into the body at the bottom. That and the square cutout around the breach would look better if it had a radius in each corner. Not sure if either of those are really feasible.

anything can be done,
the radius is fesable.

the running back into the body I don't understand what you mean

[knownothingmags]

this looks like the design im going to roll with
for both the cram and jam and feed tube type feed.






so what do you guys think?
I can make a video to show how well it clamps down. let me know if anyone wants to see that.
or it there are any spects you would like me to test and video it.

[knownothingmags]

working on a functioning proto now.
who can test this for me ASAP?
I can do it but its around 0* on average, when I am able to actually test, so cold is not good for me

[sjrtk]

I would take on with either a cram jam or taking the 10 round tube directly actually would prefer the later.
