Lots of pine though. I camped outside Mt. Katadhin one time at a camp ground called Abol on the Penobscot River. Beautiful view of Katadhin. We took the Golden Road out which is a private road for the Great Northern Paper Company. It was a very rough ride for mile after mile. It literally killed the shocks on my VW Rabbit. I didn't see one cocobol tree.

The contacts I am having made up are Beryllium copper . I had some in the shop so I made up a positive contact and a spring similar to the contacts that will be used in the kits I am having made . Of course the contacts that I am having made will be plated and better looking this was just a quick test so I could get & idea of how well the material would perform . I am sure there will be some differences in the final product .

.39 ohm

Nice work Rob. Think it's safe to say you're going to sell a couple of kits. :laugh:

Are you still applying Noalox to the firing pin? And, if so, have you ever tried using Carbon or Silver (expensive!) conductive grease as an alternative? I've heard they both have better conductivity than Noalox. Although, that doesn't necessarily mean there would be anything gained for this particular application. But, I'm curious.

I I dont think you will need any noalox or conductive grease with the new contacts
