ohhhhhhhh
ye i do some snc
cnc
but on big machines
I have seend lowers and uppers printed but there are still so many parts that need to be made from stronger materials.
ye
u can get metal printers
but they are expensive
also
cnc machines work well or laser cutters for making the metal parts
@Trommm Those are 80% lowers. I can drill the holes in my garage, no need for 500$ printer, lol.
here is a missile piece i was milling it's super sharp <:basedmama:396156349676781569>
just need something that can shoot this now
@ALternativeToLife It is really delicate work to mill a bolt carrier for an AR.
>be me
@VukHR You could use this small CNC machine for anything, it just comes with programs for 80% lowers.
Also this machine would allow you to make a lot more than just a drill press would.
Drill presses will wear out faster, and be too tedious to do very many.
>make weapons in school while all the kids are doing heir work
it was funny
Even if you would get it correct the tolerances are so tight that it would most likely be jamming.
not too hard
cause it was so sharp it could pierce very easily
ye
@Trommm Yeah, this 3D gun printing thing is just a pipe dream. It sounds so easy when in reality it is not.
im looking up the dimensions for the side grips on the 1911
i will makse some if i can find these
If you compare that with the other methods.
imagine how sick you have to be to ask why you don't want your genes to go extinct
3D printing is great for prototyping. And could even be good for some gun parts. But CNC will subtractive will always be better for something things.
@ALternativeToLife Based, I have Sig 1911, not sure if they have different dimensions, I'll DM you the measurements tonight.
There's one company that combined a 3D printer with a CNC machine, so it can add and subtract as needed. That seems like the direction things will go eventually.
Yeah, I can see the technology speeding up and streamlining production processes in the firearms industry.
i can already make guns in my college all the machinery is there
i can hand make springs also
it's not too hard
Oh yeah, well it is not hard to make a firing gun. It is always just a question of complexity.
That is crazy, no idea how they make the springs usually?
yes
