    What this is, is a big goof but at least you admitted to it. 😀 Remember, measure twice, cut once. You need (of course) a No.1 Field Carriage for a 10 pounder Parrott Rifle and possibly, possibly your Bobcat could raise it. 14 spokes per wheel, not 12.

  • @neveraballfe8253
    @neveraballfe8253 2 роки тому

    What about the reamer head being bored down the center in the non cutting area then run a de capping rod down the center. Set in a way that after you insert the reamer it bottoms out on the primer and pushes up. Then after reaming and trimming the reamer bottoms out on the set collet taking pressure of the case mouth. That would allow you to then tap down a small flat disk with your palm or small rubber hammer. It would only need to rise out of the top of the reamer shaft ¹/8th" or so. Only issue I would see is smaller caliber casings with the OD dia. Of the reamer cutting serface and strength after adding a hole through it and with the limits of such, and the limits with the decaping rod OD. Although most the length would be supported by the shaft of the reamer. So in my quick brain plans im thinking you could probably be able to make a combo of such for down to 6.5 to 6mm ish. Also could work with replaceable/different sized cutting heads. Maybe you already thought of that. But nice work hope all is well and best of luck to you Sir.

      The original Whitworth had a double lead thread. I am not sure the T.P.I. Mine is a single lead, one thread per inch. 4 turns closes the breach.

If your gun is going to be a bag gun make sure to leave lots of clearance for powder fouling. All that being said I think I would go with acme threads. It would be a good idea to check with an engineer. EVERY TIME YOU TEST A CANNON OR CHANGE YOUR LOAD EVEN SLIGHTY. TREAT IT LIKE A PROOF TEST. BE BEHIND A BUNKER.

    • @piutesteve
      @piutesteve 3 роки тому

      The Whitworth rifles did have a hexagonal bore that was very unique. But the most advanced thing about them was the breech loading system. The rifling turned out to be not that good of an idea. Nobody is using it today, but all modern guns are breech loaders. It's the breech loading system that makes it a Whitworth in my opinion.

    Sorry to keep posting and bugging you lol, I can see how this is the perfect solution, strange it hasn’t been done before. I do some machine work, (atlas lathe and Bridgeport) I cant see what the actual reamer inside the neck indexes off of? Does it just free float in the neck? I see it’s indicating perfect on your dials inside and out, but id think it would have to index on the outside of the neck die so the reamer would float exactly in the center of the die? Thanks man, this is a great idea and I’d love to buy a few different calibers if you ever get them made.
