JR FIREARMS Posted January 17, 2022 Report Posted January 17, 2022 We have added a new machine to the workshop. A laser marking machine/engraver. Quote
B&W FOX Posted January 18, 2022 Report Posted January 18, 2022 A man can never have too many toy's, Very impressive. Quote
JR FIREARMS Posted February 3, 2022 Author Report Posted February 3, 2022 It can cater for all popular calibres 🤣 Quote
JR FIREARMS Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Posted February 27, 2022 A couple more new toys added to the workshop. The main one being a Faro CMM arm. This allows precise measuring of parts for QC or reverse engineering. Such as copying the outline of this Sako 85. We then convert the information in to a CAD model for inletting/machining. This is handy for opening up inlets for bedding etc. Quote
Popsbengo Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 Nice, we used Faro arms at "a well known luxury car manufacturer" in Cheshire to digitise clay renderings amongst other things. It's a technology that's becoming more accessible now. Quote

But to have similar accuracy of a ganty CMM but with the flexibility of the arms is pretty cool. Quote
JR FIREARMS Posted May 21, 2022 Author Report Posted May 21, 2022 Finally got around to setting up and trying the true bore alignment system on the Haas CNC lathe. First job was a couple Remington 700’s that needed truing. Quote
JR FIREARMS Posted May 21, 2022 Author Report Posted May 21, 2022 Me too, it’s a bit of an addiction 🤣 Quote
Richiew Posted May 22, 2022 Report Posted May 22, 2022 Very therapeutic turning big lumps of metal into smaller pieces . Nice gear there mate . Beautiful looking threads . Cheers Quote
JR FIREARMS Posted May 24, 2022 Author Report Posted May 24, 2022 Thank you. Machining is fun until it goes wrong 🤣. Quote
