Yeah, I was thinking that, when Rob orders X# of firing pins (flat, stamped out, with hole and tapered tip) stamped out by "B.C. Contacts", he could also order Y# of "type 2" firing pins (flat, stamped out, with hole, but longer and blunt) . . . . . I just meant, some of us might want to end up with the shape you and I were playing with.
but, dizzie, if you're volunteering to make firing pins for all the flattop kids . ..
That makes sense.
I have an idea but I wouldn't want to make them often if it works. If it works, you know who the tester will be.
You guys make me wish i had a workshop...

'what's the voltage drop?' - no idea
so why? stops the delrin melting!

Nothing wrong with that. I started modding using my PC desk too (in my room) & for many years. Eventually it got like this

Is one of them the Aleeve bottle?
Someone once pointed that out & I had no idea I even had that or what was inside.

Bob Costas . . .. . . . ?
speaking of Brits, buttons and such. . . . . here's this, Supertrunker.

yeah, I know, but i didn't want to take the innards out. I just hit the button bott. with the 12" disc sander, swept around to the drill press, and popped her in. I've been saving melted/worn buttons ever since SuperTrunks mentioned this. So I just ground off the uneven part (which also happens to be the thickness of the little button bottom topper capper), and it all sizes out.
there's a lot of surface area for the epoxy to grab if I leave the nipple part on it.
ETA: oh, did I mention about Bob . . .. being your uncle?

Haha! I didn't even know who that was, had to look him up, I know after seeing his face now.
Yup, once I hit 100 I stopped counting. I'm glad I finally stopped buying lights!

meter, masking tape, solder, iron and sponge for the win!
everything else was just a wild guess
You can't fix stupid is what I always say. Throw the usual legal disclaimer on it and if someone wants to try to blow their face off by being stupid...well that's just natural selection at work!
Yeah, yeah, I don't want anyone getting hurt but there comes a time when I see someone being an a$$clown and they get hurt, I kind of think to myself...good for them.

If good enough maybe a$$clown could win a Darwin award.
I love to read those lists.
