Catfish atty mods.

[Obsiden]

Yup I never bought one cause I have so many pistols and old casings sitting around. Never got around to making it. My plan was take one of robs black delrin buttons and glue it into the shell casing. Would be easy and fit perfect

That is what did...

I have no idea what size the Derringer uses, but, if they happen to be M2's or M2.5's, I have a bunch of knurled ones that I don't need, you may have them.
I needed new screws for my Zenith, but I couldn't figure out what size it took. Turns out I needed M3's!

You should have asked... I am an endless pit of info on any atty I have modded. It's been a while since I did a zenith but I remeber it was a weirdo, it used m3 grubs but a m2.5 center pin. Usually one matches the other. I love attys with m3 center pins almost as much as one piece pins. I can push a #51 1.7mm bore through an m3 now. Easy squonking... That's what's on the second run Marquis. The First run was #53 or 1.55mm.

I have a ton too but not sure how to do it. Was thinking about a 410 casing but might be too big. I'm mainly a shotgun shooter.

Fred's Creative Customs on Facebook, but he ran into a couple of off-line personal problems (including problems with his lathe) and temporarily closed down his business. So as of right now you can't get them, but he said he was planning on starting it back up real soon. Hopefully by this summer. He's the same guy that does the bullet casing Reo buttons.

Screw it... I'll make my own.... Maybe I will start doing them also. I can use my mill as a lathe, I just need a knurler which can be had for $50-$200. I wonder if I could knurl titanium?

 

[Obsiden]

The bullet buttons would be cheap to do too

A 410 shel is the same diameter as a 45 cal right? I would think it would be perfect. I love my shottys too. I built a Saiga12 a few years ago. Nothing like a ak-47 12 gauge that rapid fires better than ANY other shotgun. 600rpm with 00 is literally a blast. The also made a 410 but I prefer the power of 12ga. Nothing makes your point better than racking in an ak in a dark room. I dream of burglars!

Break into my house! If the pits don't get you my Russian princess will. See video below

LMAO I pity the burglars that might come in too [emoji6]

I love my 12 gauges, probably more than my mods LOL [emoji51] My Guerini and my A5 are my pride and joys [emoji173]️

I'll keep that in mind!
I posted the question a while ago in the RDA section but no one answered.
The vendor I got the knurled ones was baffled!

Thank you for the very kind offer! According to CH they are 4-40 x 1/8 allen grubs; not sure if they're the same thing or not. I'm gonna head over to google.

No problem. What I have wont work then.

Yes 410 and .45 acp are the same diameter. That's what makes the S&W Governor so cool! Love the Saiga's, most feared sound a burglar will ever hear

 

[rudedog]

that's the way to make some coin on stuff that doesn't require a lot of modification and can popem out fasthave low dollars in them and sell for a good profit.i mean look at the kgd and shisheedo cotton squares seen em for 4- 6$ per 3 to 8 squares.hellofa profit margin!

I'm in for a bullet button. Lol.

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

I'd take a half dozen or so (plus one in the chamber ).

 

[Chowderhead1972]

So what Hudy driver would I need for those?

.050.

Hudy US Standard Allen Wrench (0.05" x 60mm) [HUD125020] | RC Cars - AMain.com - AMain.com

I have 4 of them with three replacement shafts. Without .035, .050, 2mm and 2.5mm I'm crippled. I truly have no idea how people can use those ridiculous L wrenches. I went out and bought 2 t-10 Hudy wrenches the day my TMod arrived. Much better. I found the L wrench that comes with the TMod useful in dire emergencies only.

For ECig use I would highly suggest the following in Hudy:
.035"
.050"
1/16"
1.5mm
2mm
3mm Phillips
4mm flat
If you are serious about rebuildables this will be the best $150-$200 that you have ever spent. The shafts make great coil wrapping mandrels also. I wish I was a distributor of Hudy but they are very particular on who they deal with. Stormer hobbies also sells Hudy for slightly less but they don't have as many options.

So seriously I should look into making and selling buttons?

What is VPX airflow?

I would be down for a VPX. I really liked that concept!! Maybe you could convert some of the Reactor fans How many would it take to get that idea to fly?

 

[Train2]

Honestly, I'd say "yes".
There's clearly more demand than supply for creative materials, so if you've got the gear to bang out small quantities, you could sell 'em.
I mean, all we have is 3 choices - people would buy colors, or titanium, or knurled, or flatter, or copper, etc...

So seriously I should look into making and selling buttons?
