   Well guys this bloody lock down bit is a bugger wearing out my shoes walking the dog , getting wood to keep the fire going. My lathe has packed a sad, broken gear in gear box so using it by hand. Yep...

   PaulNZ liked post by SixtyTen On thread : Bedding with 10 pounds of upwards pressure on the barrel.

   From what I understand, its mostly used for lighter barrels that are more picky about loads. Putting a pressure point up front will help dampen the barrel a bit and it should shoot better on average...

   Laid this up over the last week. Tomorrow I'll see if it'll break open. Two options: A, I've made a mould for a howa mini action. B, I've entombed a howa stock in fiberglass. 176949

   PaulNZ liked post by SixtyTen On thread : Baikal single shot rebarrel - Anyone done this?

   Seeing as I have been stuck at home for the last week, I managed to find some time to work on this rifle. I finished off the sight block and made a aperture holder to screw into it. I am likely...

   Adhesive technologies in Auckland make the West Systems epoxy and stock their other products. I find it cheaper to buy from them, even with freight was cheaper than buying locally.

   Thank you Rod, me too.. While this one was a fun fullbore build my current builds are even more appealing to me. Picking up where you left off I have a run of Delisle Commando carbines on the go....

    All done. It’s not perfect, but I’m pretty happy with it as a first time making and hanging an axe handle. Feels great in hand. I thought the heavier handle might throw off the balance, but it hefts...

    Thanks for the heads up, I had somehow missed that CarbideNZ had them. I just ordered a M5x0.5 I also got a couple of R8 collets for my mill which are mighty hard to find for a decent price.

    PaulNZ liked post by Frodo On thread : Are we on the wrong 'No.1" criteria when scope buying?
