Summer bash 2024 3rd and 4th August

[Dornfelderliebe]

obviously the OD needs to match the thread the die is trying to cut. From memory it's around 8mm, so if you choose m8 (or whatever matches) you are good. Then thread on your alli head.

The aussie uses a bolt IIRC... if you change that for a female countersunk version (aka a nut), you are fine again. Just thread the nut onto a threaded bolt, backup up against another nut so it's tight. Then turn it against a grindstone to get the conical shape. Cut a slot in the face for a large screwdriver bit.

Thanks Jon

Isn't it about time for Craig to tell he is rushing to nail a gun together?

It's a bit early for that, Pete. But the weekend's approaching........

Nice one, Neil.

And, with Bad Daz and Paul (Mach 1.5) contributing, guessing and hoping that they will be making their Quigley Bottom debuts and joining us.

[TonyL]

Not long to go.

BOING!!!!

No, not long to go at all, Mike.

Just six little sleepies for you.

And into single figures for the Saturday peeps.

BOING!

[TonyL]

Have you had a word with the weather gods, Neil?

[Waddy]

Not long to go.

BOING!!!!

Only a week and I'll be packing my gear in the car Less than a week for you Mike ?




Got the model 50 back together & still oversprung & ludicrously hard to cock, so more coils off the Titan spring it is

Considering softening the airsporter leather seal with olive oil to save having to buy a bottle of neatsfoot, as I'm a Yorkshireman & that neatsfoot is at least a tenner.

By the looks of things on the BBC weather app thing, he has, probably sacrificed a couple of Guinea fowl it's looking that good

I suppose with bash weekend rapidly approaching, it's time to whittle down the list of rifles that will be making their way up the A46.

Starter list:
Impact RM100 (if only to get informed opinion as to why I have an intermittent fault with the safety)
Recently fettled Hatsan Model 60 (short stroked, tp sleeved down and re-sprung)
Recently assembly project HW35 (pre-safety, synthetic seal piston added)
XS20 (.177" or .22", or both) both fettled
V-Mach tuned .22" HW77
BSA Imp Mod 'D' (a little something for the bell..)

On the reserve list:

FWB 127 (remember this one Gavin?)
HW80 in.25" (though really it's a pumpkin smasher and shouldn't come out to the autumn..)

A couple of pistols..

As per normal, happy for anyone to have a plink with anything I bring with me.

[Neil54]

No 22 hobbys in stock.

I can tell you about the rammer Mark
It's the cantankerous Theoben heritage
