I have some good results with turret. Almost all goals with mantlet are close to be done. I still need more time and patience. And some sedative medicine of course=)
As I understood. This is a shell case extractor.






And here is a thing that was very hard to do.





This things too :smiling5:

Just suburb Artyom.

Much work ahead, but lots of improvement has been done. Some part will be added later like box for empty shells and so on. The main problems is to convert dozens of rivets into slotted-head screws.

How did you convert the rivets to screws? Make a cut in them with a knife?

 

[Mini Me]

I'll bet it was the threads that was the challenge :tongue-out3:

Thank you friends for a very warm and kind words. My work becomes easier when I have such a feedback! This is 0,7 and 0,6mm Masterclub rivets. I convert them with such equipment.

Wow I had expected you to glue the rivet into the model and then slice it into a screw with a knife or that razor saw.

This variant is too hard because chances to put the saw in the middle are very low. I've tried with knife but saw is much more effective and attractive.
