    Cool Bedding flush cups into a carbon fiber stock

    Recently purchased a new boom stick for my collection and needed to fit a new flush cup adapter for my javelin bipod as their universal adapter sux arse.
    Normally I would pay for such a service but with @stug retired from stock manufacturing and modding I decided to have a crack at it myself.....with a little guidance from Stu, thanks mate your a legend

    Drilled out the hole carefully then opened it up with the dremel as I didn't have a drill bit big enough to match the diameter of the flush cup.
    Once the hole was the right diameter I opened up the cavity a little with the sanding drum on the dremel to make room for the epoxy to bed it in.
    Made a dam out of blutack to stop the epoxy spilling out into the swivel stud cavity, also sealed around the bottomed of the flush cup with lilac to stop it dripping whilst I poured 2 pot epoxy inform the top with the stock clamped into the gun vice.
    Came up mint.
