I Think I'm Gonna Do It! (Spimmy)

[Gunsmoke]

Hey guys I think i am going to buy a chep imagine or another cheap spyder and do the spyder to timmy conversion. I think i can get the parts pretty cheap. MY concern is that i might mess up and ruin the entire gun. So i might have someone else build it for me. Has anyone donr this coversion here on AO before?

[ojhspyro89]

do it man, just really make sure what your doing before u actually do it. Plan it all out even before you buy a 2 dollar detent. Make sure u know how everything works to, most of the time u can fix something if u know how it works.

I'd probably go with some sort of top-cocking spyder to build it from rather than an imagine, since you'd need to do some work to use a Timmy bolt on an imagine body

[Gunsmoke]

Top cocking spyders are the fenix, tl-x, and the pilot. They are quite a bit more than an imagine but i might just have to spend more money on a stock spyder.

or look for a used TES or"The One" body, theyre top-cocking

i was very serious on it until i realized it would cost atleast 200... thats 200 towards tons of other things, things.. other than a intimidyder

You won't get it done for anywhere near 200 bucks. If it were that cheap, everyoine would do it. It costs a least 400... You might as well buy a 2k2 timmy for 100 more.

If i can get a good deal on the parts i need i will do it. Otherwise i'll just buy a timmy. There was a guy on pbnation that did this coversion for a little over $200.

Cupseal 5$
Solenoid 60$
Clammy 150$
Inline reg 60$
alot of these stupid little pieces are pretty expensive purchasing by themselves

just to give you another idea of how much itll cost.

[meshaq]

to save some money you could also use a classic or GZ frame instead of a clammy.

[Gunsmoke]

Hw much will a GZ frame run me? I dunno if i can find all the parts right know for real cheap. I am lookin to buy a cheap timmy just in case if i cant find all the parts for cheap.

[meshaq]

i think you can find GZs for like $50 or less

[Gunsmoke]

Is there anyone here on AO that hast done this conversion that might build the gun for me if i get all the parts an stuff?
