It’s the last Monday in October. Boy has this year flown by.
Last week was a busy week for me, we’ve been working on the design evaluation and redesign of the 3D printer before we start making chips. Here’s a write up covering that:
3D Printer: Design Change Y-Axis Linear Motion Shafts
The VZ-58 Build is wrapping up, we are installing the last few components in the fire control group. We started with the magazine hardware
VZ-58: Installing Magazine Latch Hardware
For those who are interested more in the manufacturing of ammunition, we kicked off a series of write ups on Variation. This one is an introduction to much of the terminology and measurements use to quantify variation within a data set.
A few months ago I built some tooling for my bullet swage press. I’m was not happy with how rough some of it turned out, so I am rebuilding the tooling so it has a little more polished look. I’ve shared the design, and my build process here.

Thanks for taking the time to subscribe. You may have noticed there’s a lot of frying pans in the fire, which is good. It allows me to work on a few different things while I wait for parts to arrive.
