Halo Turret

[desolate]

Well i am putting a hold on the TDK holster and working on this bad boy.. it is going to be 70 inches long and it will be pretty light weight. here are some photos of what i have got done in the last 3 days.









hope you enjoy.

Nice start, there's also a Turret pep by Bevbor but, it's warthog turret so, I don't know if you would want to use it.

i am machining this entirely.. so no pep for me. haha. i might use it for reference though.

oh man that looks amazing, can't wait to see the finished product. ive done some machining in the past and nothing ive done has been as cool as that. much luck and hope it turns out good for ya. also hope it doesn't deplete your wallet.

thanks man i have put about 3 days of work into this. (that includes prints and reference images scaling etc. etc.) I hope to make leaps and bounds on it this week.. i havent spent a dime on this project yet other than my time. I have a machine shop at my expose and i live a block away from it. this whole project has been made entirely out of scrap materials from were i work.. haha [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hey there&#39;s a friendly face, long time no see. Hope you got all moved into the house and whatnot. Glad to see you back in action too, turret is looking amazing!

That looks heavy as balls lol But it&#39;s gonna be cool.

[whoahw15]

I have to say its coming out good. After you get done will you be releasing all the schematics and references that you used? At the very least could you send it my way maybe. After next christmas I should have access to a machine shop which is why I&#39;m asking.

haha that is funny you say that it is actually all hollow. it will be at the max 15 to 20 pounds.. i am hoping lighter but i dont know once all the detail is in it.. the over all length will be 70 inches.
