      Got the tool heights checked and loaded them in the changer this afternoon.

      Takes an even dozen (12) tools and 30 kB of chip munching G-Code ( :rofl: ) to make these covers and mod the rails.

      Gonna try to make some chips tomorrow.

      I've still gotta cut some billets, set the fixture offsets, and test the programs before that can happen, but unless I have a bunch of trouble, that stuff should go pretty quickly.

      Here's to hoping for smooth sailing.

      I gotta go rattle TAG's cage again, to see how far along the boards are.

      More news tomorrow night (hopefully).

          Got the first couple fixture offsets measured and into the control, and the eye cover program tested.

          Everything was OK there, ready to make some chips . . . . . . . . . . Aw damn.

          I had forgotten that the clear door of the enclosure had fallen apart when we had the table apart (to replace the X axis servo). Soooo, I had to enlist some help to clean up the parts, regoop them with silicon, and then rivet them back together.

          Its all done, but the silicon needs to cure overnight (at least) before I start slinging coolant on it.

          I'm all ready to jump on it tomorrow though.

          Should get half a dozen covers and one rail at least done tomorrow.

          I did use the down time to do a couple of other parts of the UEF project. I got one of the VA's finished, and I got my valve's field strip screw hole helicoiled (some ham fisted fool had destroyed the threads entirely, which explains why I got it so cheap ).

          Now I just need to get the ghettoriffic on/off switch resoldered (its been acting wonky), and the covers and rail cut, and then we'll be in movie town.

          It is moving along, slowly, but surely.

              The trigger return is done via a magnet, but the trigger itself actuates a micro-switch. No HES to deal with here.

              And yes, if you order one, you can specify what colors you want on the frame, the VA, and the trigger (different colors for each if you like, no extra charge).

                Got the rail and eye covers cut today. It all looks really good. I'm just too damned tired to take pictures tonight.

                The ULE body I have is going to have to go. It was drilled for the old eye covers that I used with the proof of concept marker. I had to move the eyes a little, and changed the way the covers mounted, so the body looks a little wonky right now. Don't sweat it when you see the pics, its not that big of a deal (IE the production models won't look like that).

                May have to put off the movies until I can get another body and some detents from AGD (yet another thing I had forgotten, I robbed the detents off of my Mag to get a customer's marker running).

                Anyway, the project is coming along nicely. Should be able to cycle it and at least check for fit problems while I wait for the detents and the body.

                I can say one thing for sure, it looks bad ***, even if I do say so myself.

                And man is it light. I'm guessing that we will actually see a decrease in weight over a stock RT ULE, even with all the extra crap hanging off the front. That just rules.

                  I must say, after reading all this, I am seriously considering buying a ULE mag just so I can get this frame. That or just a ULE body and gas-thru. I'm just not sure my wallet would like me afterwords...

                    I've been asked before about doing a whole marker from scratch, and the retail price I came up with was $950. That's with a ULE body, XValve, the rail milled, and the eyes installed.

                    The frame is $450, and the eye install is $125. So, if you can't gather up the individual parts you need for under $375, you're better off buying the whole thing at once (IMO anyway).

                    I'm sure we can find a middle ground if you want to supply the valve and body, or some other combo of parts.

                          I would only be able to supply the valve and rail. What would the cost be with just supplying you with those 2 items?

                            $450 for the frame, $145 for the body (or whatever AGD's retail is, my price list is old), and then $125 for the eye install and covers. So, that's $720 + shipping.

                            If the EMag valve still has an EMag On/Off in it, you'll need to replace that with a stock RTP On/Off as well. But hell, what's another $25 when you're spending $800?

                            Pics should be up in a couple of hours.

                              a couple of hours meaning 2 hours?

                                Keep it in your pants Gunga Din.

                                I just got a call from a buddy, and I gotta go back to the shop to work on his truck.

                                Pics will be delayed a bit, but I will get them taken and posted when I get back.

                                Hang in there.
