Dumb question. The threaded rods you were making. They look like rifle cleaning rods. Any chance of using the cleaning rods instead?

Spoons

I like these a lot. I'd love to see more videos like this from you after this series is over.

Can't say I'd ever thought of rifle cleaning rods, but I need a specific length and threads, so chances are I'd need to make them anyway.

Then like the video itself said, you should join my Patreon, and... oh, wait. :)

Will there be a demo in the last video?

Asking for a friend . . . just how much is one of these little wonders going to cost

A complete, unanodized body kit, with everything unique to the gun (everything else you need will be factory, off-the-shelf 'Cocker parts) will be approximately $1500. This first batch I kind of underestimated costs, using numbers from back when I made the first one of these in 2004. Inflation has moved the goalposts a bit since then. :D

That sounds about like what I was guessing. The amount of machine hours alone for one of these seems... substantial.

Couple questions, how many gallons of lubricant do you go through in a process like this? Also, watching you cut those blocks on the bandsaw by hand made my fingers itch. With all the automation you have there, you don't have something to do that?

Along with PixelThis, I'm curious as well as to how much expendable tooling you whip through. The heat alone seems to be eating through your acid brushes like mad!

Not as much as you might think. :) The CNC machine filters and recirculates its cutting oil, so very little is lost, there. On the manual milling, I use cans of standard WD-40, and I think I've used up three of the big "industrial" cans over this entire project so far. The dark cutting oil you see occasionally? Probably only a couple ounces. And no, I don't have an automatic bandsaw. I had a horizontal for a while, but I had to let that go to make room for the CNCs. Just respect the machine and the blade, and you'll be fine.

Actually, I still have the same three oil brushes I started this project with, though a couple of them have lost a few bristles. Which is okay, they're cheap and disposable. Very little of the rest of the tooling is "expendable". The cutters generally last through far more abuse than I'm giving them, drills can punch thousands of holes between resharpenings... The only things I'm really "consuming" are paper towels, sandpaper and WD-40. :)

Ah. Yeah, I'm a mobile tradesman, and for the sake of contamination, I can't move grease brushes from one job site to the next. The less that makes contact with my work, the better.
