    I've made an album that I'll put photos in as I go through build and development. Just a few in there at the moment showing some of the important parts I've got ready.
    Should be adding more this week when I get this delivery
    If you click on each photo, there should be some brief descriptions. Feel free to ask for more detailed descriptions though.

    Parts arrived today! Got a lot of cleaning/finishing/plating to do before it's ready to be built up, and unfortunately the day job is very busy

    I've started adding some more images to the folder I posted above. Should add loads this weekend too.

    Is it just the recoiless version you are intending to market or could there be recoiling version too?

    Just the recoilless version I think. It's designed for a large diameter piston and short stroke, so the recoilling version would be compromised from the start.

    I wish it were smoother already. The bits I ordered from UK, one lot were late and then they sent me someone else's parts. Another place have machined some parts wrong which will have to go back.

    Luckily the parts I got from China were perfectly made, arrived earlier than expected, and were 1/2 the price, even with import tax and air freight added on
