The poor man’s temperature mod is to print slow as shit so that the nozzle and filament reach as hot as possible. This is neat though - guessing it works on the P1s also?

Nozzle temps at 300c, bed temps at 50c, no fan, 30 to 50mms speed. I print on textured PEI with amazon purple gluestick.

I switched from Cura 5.9 to Orca slicer, and it made a huge difference in time and print quality. Everything is a little different.

  1. Yes, on the newer version there is only one headspace screw.

  2. The looser means the hole that the back of the firing pin seats in is either looser or tighter. The tight really needs to be press fit and maybe filed out to fit and allow JB Weld. The looser was better option for me.

  3. I shortened the ass end on my build, and cut a different guide rod. That being the case, I didn't even look at guide rod jigs, so can't help you there.

Printed cans don't seem to heat up the way metal cans do. They aren't that thermally conductive and have low thermal mass. What I have seen on here leads me to believe that strength is more important than temperature resistance for printed cans, but a side by side comparison will be the best way to learn for sure.

ChairManWon V3 43X in Griptape texture with Fuzzy Skin 0.1/0.1

Printed on a Qidi Q1 Pro on a 0.6 nozzle in Fiberon PPS-CF10, dried at 100C for 10hrs.

Chamber open and unheated,, bed at 80C, nozzle at 330/310C, Speed at 60mms across the board, Tree Support Organic, oriented rails up with the magwell edge flush to the plate, about 5° nose up overall.

Annealed at 127C (255F) for 16hrs.

No moisture conditioning needed.

Highest temp resistance, impervious to moisture, pretty darn stiff, rivaled in stiffness only by dry PA6-CF20.

And it goes tink-tink when you tap it, almost a metallic sound.

Yeah, I'll keep it.

Final image is a 43X in PA6-CF and the latest in PPS-CF10

Sorry for lack of updates, finished my degree. After making a few barrels I changed the trunnion mount, rather than using pins, you can use flat bar, and file the receiving channel on the barrel to fit them. Again, this uses no existing gun parts, and you can ECM the barrel. You will need a drill press to making the screw holes in the receiver plates, but I am also working on jigs with drill bushings and printed housings to make the drilling process repeatable and accurate. Feel free to ask any questions.

I saw a whole ago you could upload an STL to them and they'd serialize and print the thing and ship it to an FFL. I guess that's not a thing anymore on the website. Is it still a possibility to do or are there any other places offering the same service?

Hey squad - My KAK barrel for a Nylaug build is passing on both Go and No-go gauges. Is this normal for the KAK Nylaug builds?

Im developing an Auto9 prop for my old 92S. A 0.75” OD steel tube will inserted into the hole and overlap the barrel with 1mm clearance. I’ll grind a lead-in and ports prior to press fit/gluing/(pinning?) it in place. The steel tube will extend ~10mm from the end of the prop assembly. The prop will be held in place by a cross screw inside the trigger guard…..and a shoulder bolt screwed into the tip of the aluminum recoil spring guide, tapped for M4. The shoulder bolt head will prevent the prop from rotating downward during cycling. Also considering putting a cross bolt through the front web of the trigger guard.

Mac 11 issues (fosscad.io)

Hello, I just wanted to start this post glazing u/Pfunk117 for introducing the wackmack, one of only functioning super safe mac11 builds I have found in the sea. I have tossed hundreds of dollars into other super safe mac11 DB9 derivatives all for them not to work and destroy my barrel.

My upper is a VMAC 11".

Now for my main issue, I was using my wackmack as normal on the range and dumped 120 rounds through it for 3 days. Keep in mind, the only range ammo I used when running this gun was Remington and Blazer FMJ's. I let one of my friends try out my weapon on the range and he loaded some Winchester Full Metal Jacket Flat Nose target rounds through my gun and it exploded leaving this.

Bullet Remanent

Bullet Powder ruminants

The bullet was stuck in the barrel and the rim of the brass shell was also stuck in the chamber. I asked the RSO for a push rod to clear my barrel and they pointed something concerning to my attention after clearing the barrel. The RSO pointed out that some metal chipping in my barrel that looked like my barrel liner chipped out and flaked but I'm not certain.

Chamber View

From of gun top down view

I was going to see if I could simply remove the material sticking up, but I think I may need to swap the barrel.

chambered sim rounds with burrs

Things that I hypothesize causing this issue:

  1. My friend chambered this round wrong and babied the charging handle causing an OOB.
  2. The Round was chambered correctly but the issue was Winchester QC.
  3. VMAC QC failed me.

I would love assistance and feedback for my next steps on what I should do from here. I would also want to know how this issue happened and what I can do to prevent this from happening (like not letting other people shoot my guns).

Update: It fucking eats! Need to invest in some 20 round mags asap. The only issue I was having was a failure to fully feed which I think was caused by not having the brace properly shouldered, could have also been I have heard it likes 73 gr rounds and I was only able to get my hands on some 71s for now.
