    I just started making this in woodwork class today. That 4mm plywood was scarce so we eventually had to machine some paneling down to 4mm and use that instead. Good video, practical design, easy to make and easty assembly 10/10.

    • @Snowy101

      I also had to use wood glue to put the paper on the plywood so I'll have some extra sanding to do.

    Just a tip; identically shaped parts (like the ones you used to build up the stock and receiver of the gun) can be stack cut. Basically, you stack however many pieces of plywood you need and temporarily attach them together with a screw in an area that will be cut off. Place your template on the top piece and saw all of them at once. Your pieces will be all the same and it saves you some time...

    • @brandaeyon
      @brandaeyon 10 років тому +2

      yeah, but you might want to do it only like two at a time, because if it gets too high, while your cutting it would fall, and after you cut off the piece with the screw, nothing holds onto it.

      @BlackHawk2029 5 років тому

      You can also back each piece with blue painters tape, and use super glue between the tape layers to hold it together. The peel strength of blue tape is pretty weak, which is what keeps it from pulling paint up when you pull it off. But its sheer strength (horizontal) is excellent. I use this trick all the time.

    After sighting in at 60 feet, I could easily cover 5 shots with a nickel ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL ! Truly a pleasure to shoot! Scope was easy to adjust for eye relief. Only problem the varmints must have seen it delivered lol!Update: So impressed with shot groups at 30 yards I purchased a Hammers 3×9 with adjustable Objective scope! Now a true nail driver!

    I think, in english it is called aspen (populus) plywood. The colt single action army grips are cherry (american black). Dowels are European Beech.

    Other than that, great videos! We're really hooked!

    In the lower right corner of the manual you have A4, Letter, P4. Does this mean the sizes it will print to or is A4 the only size that works to get the right sizes for the parts. It doesn't seem to print right on letter.

      It should work with letter. Set page size "actual size" or "custom scale: 100%" (Adobe Reader 11)

    This is an incredible build! Are all the parts you cut out the same thickness of material? Also, can this technically be done with another thickness of wood that is close to 5/32, say 1/8th thick wood?

    • @RBguns
      @RBguns  10 років тому

      eggfuyung92 1/8 is possible, but you have to adjust some parts. (dowel length, barrel diameter,...)

    • @eggfuyung9214
      @eggfuyung9214 10 років тому

      I ask this because since the wooden parts would be the same thickness, theoretically, all the parts can be cut out with a laser cutter, which I may do.
