    There's was some discussion early on with the eyes, but I haven't seen much lately. The biggest problem is that the breech rotates. I think that I have figured out a way to do it, but it needs some more R&D and probably some guidance from a few of you e-types. Honestly no easy way right now, but possibly a retro mod - or a feature for a future body (now that we've spent 1,000 hours figuring out how to build them)...

      The breaches need the detent holes and the bodies need the detent reliefs .

      I wanted to make sure everything was working perfectly with the front blocks before doing those . Those 2 ops will run out in one day this week .

      The Emicro fronts will go on after the micros fronts are done , using the same tooling and setups.

        Nah, he meant were there any pics of the Emicro parts...

        C'mon, no props for the Henry Flagler lesson? I didn't even use a search engine!

          Okay - good job on the Henry Flagler jeopardy question - your answer may have been a call for the judges, but I would have given it to you... For all of you that like hanging out in the Keys or South Beach ol' Henry is what got us there - everyone has heard of John D. Rockefeller, but poor Henry gets the "who" treatment every time... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Morrison_Flagler

On top of that within the next few weeks I have a big military contract coming in. It would be in your best interest to make sure you are paid in full soon. I will pull all paid in full orders first and get to the rest when I am done so not to cause myself any confusion and try and avoid any mistakes.

              Sorry reposting this!! I don't want anyone to miss this post. I am really trying hard to make sure this ends smoothly!!!!

                I e-mailed you about this last year. I also mentioned it to Tracy and she told me to shoot you an e-mail,... she did say you have a rather LARGE spam folder


                Ive been playing with possibles for this,.. I have 2 solutions I would run by you and see what you think.

                Biggest hurdle for me was the Break Beam eyes,.... Bounce beam seems to be a more simple solution.

                Tracy has my contact info,... give me a shout when you can Forest.

                  I personally bought two breeches, so that in the future I could possibly make one have break beam or something.
